Abstract
Connection loss may be minimized for performing database query engine changes. A distributed database system may include different instances of the query engine that provide access to a database. When an event to change the version of the query engine is detected, a copy of the database may be created and a new instance of the query engine created. Read-only access to the database may be maintained using the different instances of the query engine while the new instance may be upgraded to the different version of the query engine. Upon successful installation of the different version of the query engine at the new instance, the new instance may be given read-write access to the database using the copy of the database and other database instances may be upgraded to the different version of the query engine.
