Migration from Linux based On Prem setup to GCP

Hi,

    We have a requirement to clone the OnPrem environment to GCP. Has anyone done this earlier. Does Appian has any documentation or utility for the same?

    As per my knowledge, you can use same steps as like upgrading exisiting installation.
    it may involve in coping data from the existing server to new server.

    Above link includes both new installation and also upgrade and it may helps you for migration too.

    Hi Priya,

    1.If its just a code base cloning you can do it on your own through normal deployment steps, if the data base used in onprem and gcp are same.

    2. If the DB are different like sql server to mysql , then the process is bit different, you need some ETL as well to migrate the data.

    3. Along with code if you want to clone the active tasks etc. then that would be more complicated.

    The link provided by manish will also be useful.

    Hi karthik, its a complete clone of the environmnet. so basically we need to duplicate the DB, Appian Installation, including the kdb files etc.
