Hello! At the moment, I am considering replacing runtime 10.4 with runtime 11.3 in my ADF. I would like to know how big the differences are between them, and if I can just change the version without worrying about breaking anything?

It is impossible to say, because we don't know what your ETL logic looks like. Most likely it is fine. Don't you have an acceptance/uat/test environment where you can try it out?

It depends upon the older code. We recently went from 9.3 to 13.3 and then from 13.3 to 14.3 we did face some issues with the code. 

The changes if required are very basic, unless you land in issues with performance blockers. So you can try giving one run in Dev/QA environmentthen see the altitude of the changes if any required.

Thank you, guys, for your answers! Yeah, I should probably try to test it in the DEV environment.

On thing worth mentioning is the DBR Migration Guide. There you'll find all potential changes between the runtimes.
