Hello everybody,  
I am running my self hosted instance since a couple of weeks and it seems there is an upgrade available in the admin dashboard (v3.1.0.beta2 +622 → v3.1.0.beta3 +13) and I wanted to know a couple of things about upgrading Discourse.  
If I upgrade from the admin dashboard, will I have a downtime?  
If it’s the case, is there some options I can enable in order to have zero downtime upgrade?

I installed Discourse using the guide in here: [discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md)

Many thanks!
