## Technical notes

The upgrade to Grafana v9.4 includes changes to the Grafana database for Grafana alerting that are not backward compatible. As a result, when you upgrade to Grafana v9.4, do not downgrade your Grafana instance to an earlier version. Doing so might cause issues with managing your Grafana alerts.
