How to migrate offline data center to the online data center?

Pei Huang_4p8zft

Summary: How to implement the ALM/ Jira architect to achieve offline data center interact to the online data center.

steps understanding:

1, There are two parts for ALM/ Jira architect, including online and offline data center.

2, Integrate Orca to offline data center and online data center to match field.

3, Migrate offline data center to online data center, the migration content including different fields.

Questions:

1, what's the migration method？

2，the feasibility for this Jira architect?

3, Any other details need to concern?

Welcome to the community!

I'm afraid your question is not clear. Your use of the words "online" and "offline" does not tell us what you have or what you are moving to. A Jira system is always "online" - if it were "offline", you wouldn't be able to use it.

Do you mean that you have a Data Center install of Jira that you want to move from one server (or cluster) to another? Or from a server you run to a Cloud server like AWS or Azure? Or do you you mean you have a server/DC install that you would like to move to Atlassian Cloud?

Also, you haven't told us what "Orca" is? I assume it's some form of computer system rather than a large sea mammal, but Atlassian have nothing by that name.

We can't really answer any of your questions until we're clear on what you are trying to do!

Thanks for your suggestion.

there are two path about these questions:

1, Migrate data center (offline version) to Data center(with online server.)

Both are Data center, one of them is offline version, and the other is online version. I am not sure if it's ok to call them like this.

2, Migrate data center (offline version) to Cloud server like AWS.

For "Orca" is means Orca.security, it's Plug-in tool to achieve field match between data center offline to data center online. As we want to finish field match and then migrate the data from data center to the Data center(online)/ Cloud version.

Bty, because of the location are Singapore or Sydney. I am not sure if it's ok to use cloud version in China.

For Data center setup, is it could be called offline Jira version if we set in local.

Besides, once we set the data center in the cloud like Baidu or Ali cloud, is it could be called online Jira version ? And then after configuration, does it allow users to check into the online version?

Ok, so there's some word usage to clarify here - offline means "not running or not available to use over the network", and online means "usable over the network". They do not accurately describe what I think you are talking about here, I think you mean "on our servers, behind a firewall" when you say "offline", and "running on a server provided by someone else and available over the internet" for "online".

I'd suggest dropping those words completely, they don't mean anything like what you've been using them for.

Assuming those meanings are right, then you are talking about taking your Jira install from a server inside your network and moving it over to one hosted on AWS or similar service provider.

This is not a difficult thing to do. The software you are running on your server is the same as what you will be running on the 3rd party servers. Note that Jira has three different types of installation, called Server, Data Center and Atlassian Cloud. Server and DC are the same software, but configured differently.

To "migrate" your server up to a Cloud provider, you have some options around data transfer you might want to think about, but the easiest migration is likely to be:

Create a new database on the Cloud provider's service
Set up the new Jira server on the provider, pointing it to the empty database
Check it runs ok empty, then stop it while you do the actual migration
Stop your current server
Take a backup of the database and restore it into the Cloud database
Copy the attachments from the server up to the Cloud installation
Start the new Cloud service and run a full re-index
If you're going for Data Center installs you will then need to start adding new nodes to the cluster. But get the first node working first before you do that.

You'll also need to think about how you do user access - your new Cloud system will probably need to be connected to whatever identity system your server is currently using (unless it's just the simple off-the-shelf "internal Jira accounts" - those will come across as part of the data)
