Explanation

During an NDB upgrade, the upgrade process follows a specific order to maintain stability and HA. The Leader NDB API Server is upgraded first. This server coordinates API requests and ensures the control plane remains operational. Upgrading the leader first minimizes disruption, as subsequent components (e.g., other API servers, HAProxy) rely on its leadership role. Once the leader is upgraded, the remaining NDB HA control plane VMs (e.g., follower API servers, HAProxy) are updated in sequence.
