Hello everyone,
At the moment, I am responsible for migrating all business processes within our company (and eventually all related data) from Alfresco Community Edition 5.x to the latest available version, which is currently 26.x.
I have already deployed a test instance of version 26 on my local machine and have access to both the production source code and all the data currently used by the company.
First of all, apologies if this is too broad of a question or lacks technical details. At this stage, the only specific information I can provide is that the current system contains custom business processes implemented in the Share UI using Activiti.
I am familiar with tools such as the Alfresco SDK, as well as concepts like In-Process and Out-of-Process extensions. However, the variety of available tools, frameworks, and approaches for developing custom modules is a bit overwhelming.
I would greatly appreciate any advice on the subject. For example:
What types of extensions are typically involved when dealing with business processes implemented in the Share UI?
Would you recommend using the Alfresco SDK for such a migration?
What technologies should I expect to work with besides Java?
Are there any courses, guides, or documentation resources you would particularly recommend?
I have already gone through a considerable amount of documentation, but I am still struggling to understand which specific technologies and approaches are actually relevant to my situation.
If you need any additional details in order to provide more specific recommendations, I would be happy to share them, as I have access to the source code and the existing implementation.
Thank you in advance.
