Cloud to Cloud Migration

Hello,

We currently have BP Platform consisting of 300+ bots sitting in AWS Cloud covering up to 60+ automations. We now have plans to migrate from AWS to Azure.

Does Blue prism have any recommendations/steps to follow in order to achieve the cloud migration ? (In-place or Side by side)

Also eager to know the pros & cons/challenges faced if any of you have tried out such migration activity.

Thanks !

Hi Subburayalu,

With regards to migrating Blue Prism from one platform to another, whether that be from on premise into the cloud or from one cloud provider to another, there is no single method which works best as each have their pros and cons.

My personal recommendation would be to stand up a new environment side by side in Azure, this would allow you to regression test all objects in the newly built Azure environment before migrating processes over in a controlled manner. An in-place migration would rely on connectivity between the two environments and there is no guarantee that the runtime resource builds would match those in AWS.

A side by side migration would also allow you to upgrade to a newer version of Blue Prism at the same time as well as ensuring things, such as database archiving, are configured from day 0, in order to maximize your environments long term performance.

Blue Prism Professional services do offer both Upgrade assurance and cloud migration assurance services in all regions across the globe, so If you are interested in having Blue Prism assist directly with your migration, please reach out either to your Blue Prism account manager or myself.
