I am having my NodeJs version 18.x and trying to upgrade to apollo-server 4, but it is giving me an error that version 4 is not compatible with that, can you help me with what can I do (I don’t want to downgrade my NodeJs version)

[The new package name for v4 is `@apollo/server`](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/migration/), so you should remove `apollo-server` and `apollo-server-*` packages and replace them with `@apollo/server`.

It also looks like you’re running old versions of federation packages, you should update those to v2 separately.
