I am currently using PostgreSQL 11.2 and would like to try and upgrade it
to the latest version 13. Can I go straight from 11 to 13 or do I need to
upgrade to 12 first and then to 13?
You can go straight to 13.
We get this question often. Why do people feel they need to upgrade to
intermediate releases? If we knew, maybe we could better clarify this.
I believe this is coming from the Oracle world. You can, e.g.not directly go from 9 to18. There are supported upgrade paths and you need to stick to those, but they are documented.
What other software needs to upgrade through all intermediate versions?
Many variations of OS'es, though not all. One of the benefits of Ubuntu
is that you can jump from x.LTS to y.LTS over intermediate versions.
