Hi Ali,

You can upgrade between NiFi 0.6 and 1.0 (although we’d recommend you go to 
1.1.0 which was just released this week and had 265 issues fixed / features 
added since 1.0). Follow the migration guide [1], as there are substantial 
changes introduced in the 1.x versions which you should be aware of. Some of 
the biggest are the new multi tenant authorization model [2] and the zero 
master cluster model. As you were not using clustering in 0.x, you do not need 
to worry about ZMC as it will work by default. There is a capability [3] to 
migrate the existing “legacy” authorized-users.xml to users.xml and 
authorizations.xml, which support the new model.

I’d recommend upgrading your standalone node first and once you’re comfortable 
with the new UI and that you have configured the flow and user access policies 
the way you want, then spread to a cluster. The flows will migrate with very 
little interaction (some processors require that they run only on the primary 
node for synchronization issues, like ListFile, but this is documented in the 
processor info) and most flows are the same on standalone instances as they are 
on clusters.
