+[[_operator-upgrade-strategy]]
+=== Upgrade strategy
+
+You can configure how the operator performs {project_name} upgrades. You can choose from the following upgrade strategies.
+
+* `recreate`: This is the default strategy. The operator removes all {project_name} replicas, optionally creates a backup
+  and then creates the replicas based on a newer {project_name} image. This strategy is suitable for major upgrades as
+  a single {project_name} version is accessing the underlying database. The downside is {project_name} needs to be shut
+  down during the upgrade.
+* `rolling`: The operator removes one replica at a time and creates it again based on a newer {project_name} image. This
+  ensures a zero-downtime upgrade but is more suitable for minor version upgrades that do not require database migration
+  since the database is accessed by multiple {project_name} versions concurrently. Automatic backups are not supported
+  with this strategy.
+
+.Example YAML file for a Keycloak custom resource
+```yaml
+apiVersion: keycloak.org/v1alpha1
+kind: Keycloak
+metadata:
+  name: example-keycloak
+  labels:
+ifeval::[{project_community}==true]
+   app: keycloak
