Upsizing from 2008 to 2019?

I have many databases in 2008.   Can I backup and restore them into 2019?  I searched MS and found I could to 2017 but no reference to 2019.

    Hi nmah01 -- Yes, SQL2008 to SQL2019 backup and restore will work.  See this doc for specific supported upgraded paths.  Thanks.
