I have a Production Database Server
"Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP3) - 10.0.5500.0 (X64) Sep 21 2011 22:45:45 Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation Web Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)"
I create a SSIS package in Visual Studio 2008 BI when I try to deploy my package to the database, I get below Error
Storing or modifying packages in SQL Server requires the SSIS runtime and database to be the same version. Storing packages in earlier versions is not supported.
Can this be considered as later version?

Visual Studio 2008 BI
"BI edition" only came out with SQL Server 2012. And as as @WilliamToddSalzman noted Version 6 is a 2012 package format while 3 is 2008. The error message says as muchPackage migration from version 6 to version 3 failed
