Magento 2.4.8-p2 Upgrade

Job ID: 39798008

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

My Magento store needs to move to the latest security release, 2.4.8-p2. The build is mostly standard with minimal customization, so there are no deep-rooted modules to untangle, yet I still want the upgrade handled methodically to avoid any surprise downtime.

Here is the flow I expect:
• Clone the live site to a staging environment and take a full backup.
• Perform the composer-based upgrade, run all schema/data patches, and clear deprecated code.
• Test storefront, checkout, and admin functions (catalog rules, orders, basic reports, any default payment and shipping methods).
• Fix any compatibility warnings, then migrate the upgrade to production during a low-traffic window.
• Provide a short post-deployment report outlining tasks completed, issues found, and confirmation that core files now read 2.4.8-p2.

No heavy theme work or bespoke extensions should stand in the way, so the job should be quick for someone comfortable with Magento 2 CLI, composer, and SSH. A clean, secure upgrade with minimal disruption is all I need.
