Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance the upgrade process with respect to software service deployments. In at least one implementation, a user interface to an administrative portal for administering an initial deployment of a software service is presented and a notification that an upgrade is available is surfaced therein. In response to a selection of the notification in the user interface, upgrade controls are surfaced in the user interface for controlling a pace of the upgrade with respect to service components of the initial deployment. The upgrade is then applied incrementally to the service components based least in part on the pace of the upgrade specified via the upgrade controls.
