Re: Upgrading from MySql server from 5.6 to 5.7.

Since major version upgrades are not available, you cannot upgrade 5.6 to 5.7 as you cannot upgrade 5.5 to 5.6 through the installers.
This guide may help you to perform an in-place upgrade: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/upgrading.html#upgrade-procedure-inplace

Since basically what you're going to do is overwrite the binaries, I would recommend doing a backup of your information first: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/backup-methods.html

hope this helps!
