Hi, I've just installed SQL Server 2019 and it's version is RTM, I want to update to latest CU. In the offficial website, I didn't find any requirement as long it runs SQL Server 2019.
Can I just jump from RTM to CU18? Would it be causing any problem?

Thanks

    CU = "Cummulative Update" and that means it includes all previous updates, so you can directly install the latest CU.
