+# Parse Server 9 Migration Guide <!-- omit in toc -->
+
+This document only highlights specific changes that require a longer explanation. For a full list of changes in Parse Server 9 please refer to the [changelog](https://github.com/parse-community/parse-server/blob/alpha/CHANGELOG.md).
+
+---
+- [Route Path Syntax and Rate Limiting](#route-path-syntax-and-rate-limiting)
+---
+
+## Route Path Syntax and Rate Limiting
+Parse Server 9 standardizes the route pattern syntax across cloud routes and rate-limiting to use the new **path-to-regexp v8** style. This update introduces validation and a clear deprecation error for the old wildcard route syntax.
+
+### Key Changes
+- **Standardization**: All route paths now use the path-to-regexp v8 syntax, which provides better consistency and security.
+- **Validation**: Added validation to ensure route paths conform to the new syntax.
+- **Deprecation**: Old wildcard route syntax is deprecated and will trigger a clear error message.
+
+### Migration Steps
+
+#### Path Syntax Examples
+
+Update your rate limit configurations to use the new path-to-regexp v8 syntax:
+
+| Old Syntax (deprecated) | New Syntax (v8) |
+|------------------------|-----------------|
+| `/functions/*` | `/functions/*path` |
+| `/classes/*` | `/classes/*path` |
+| `/*` | `/*path` |
+| `*` | `*path` |
+
+**Before:**
+```javascript
+rateLimit: {
+  requestPath: '/functions/*',
+  requestTimeWindow: 10000,
+  requestCount: 100
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```javascript
+rateLimit: {
+  requestPath: '/functions/*path',
+  requestTimeWindow: 10000,
+  requestCount: 100
+}
+```
+
+- Review your custom cloud routes and ensure they use the new path-to-regexp v8 syntax.
+- Update any rate-limiting configurations to use the new route path format.
+- Test your application to ensure all routes work as expected with the new syntax.
+
+> [!Note]
+> Consult the [path-to-regexp v8 docs](https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp) and the [Express 5 migration guide](https://expressjs.com/en/guide/migrating-5.html#path-syntax) for more details on the new path syntax.
