import documents from an on premise application to Alfresco installed on the cloud

imane — Wed, 15 Sep 2021 17:56:24 GMT

Hello,

I wanna migrate (import) documents from an on premise application to (into) Alfresco installed on the cloud.

Is there a tool (like bulk import tool) that can help doing this? Or anyone has an idea how can I do this?

Thank you in advance.

If you want to migrate metadata also then you need to use bulk import.

If you just want to upload only documents then you can use webdav or FTP or CMIS sync.

Thank you Sanjay for your answer.

Bulk import is only for importing data between 2 servers located on the same instance. In my case, the source is located on premise and the target (Alfresco) is located on the cloud. How can I do the migration in this case?
