# Operations


Operational tasks include the following categories:

* Data migrations
* Upgrading endpoints
* Deployments
* Diagnostics
* Scripting activities (using the low level/native APIs to help perform any of the above tasks)

Some of these tasks apply to every endpoint. The rest are best reviewed from the perspective of the selected transport and persistence, which are listed below when they have dedicated operational guidance.

## Endpoints

* [Installers](/nservicebus/operations/installers.md)
* [Startup diagnostics](/nservicebus/hosting/startup-diagnostics.md)

* [Tuning message throughput performance and concurrency](/nservicebus/operations/tuning.md)
* [Decommissioning endpoints](/nservicebus/endpoints/decommissioning-endpoints.md)

## Upgrades

* [NServiceBus upgrade guides](/nservicebus/upgrades/index.md)
* [Transport upgrade guides](/transports/upgrades/index.md)
