    Challenges while migrating<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Pat Sampson \u2013 SAP<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Now lets discuss challenges and moving from an on-prem to a cloud based solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It\u2019s going to vary, and this is something that\u2019s SkillNet can help you with determining. So part of the problem is a hybrid solutions,  So oftentimes around your commerce engine, you\u2019re also running other third party solution. So content management systems potentially, order management systems, potentially, other things that may be hosted alongside your commerce in your existing on-prem deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Figure: Top challenges in migration<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Take a look at the architecture, figure out, what can be co-locate, in your data centers, commerce, what can we put somewhere else? What can we continue to host ourselves? These are architectural decisions that need to be made and that kind of dovetails into the next challenge, which is, lack of planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When we\u2019re doing the planning, you need to also make sure that as you\u2019re planning the project, you\u2019re actually going through questions like. What have I done with hybris in the past? What customizations have I created? then what customizations am I using? And how does that line up with the current, solution offered by SAP commerce?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So if I created a customization, version five code line years ago, there may be equivalent functionality out of the box now. So do I want to actually bring those customizations forward or do I want to take in, do I want to take in, essentially, move and, consume the out of the box functionality that I\u2019m providing data migrations along that same line,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If I\u2019ve got all, if I\u2019ve got old customizations that maybe I\u2019m not using anymore, Potentially, I\u2019ve got a lot of data. I need to clean up my database. And that\u2019s one of the things that I\u2019ll be talking about in a few minutes when we talk about the migration process. And that is we essentially to look at the data database, figure out what\u2019s being used What\u2019s not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It\u2019s the perfect time as part of the migration to clean up your databases and move them forward. then obviously you want to leverage the, expertise, of SkillNet in terms of proper implementation, proper customization methodologies proper UI experience, customizations things along those lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Between SkillNet and SAP, we can assist with some of the governance around the actual migration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The entire hybris site\/store front is created out of Java script. A lot functionalities listed below are available out of the box<\/p>\n\n\n\n
