Moving process instances from BAW traditional to CP4BA BAW on Containers 25.0.0

By John Stephenson posted 10 days ago

  

Starting with IBM Business Automation Workflow (BAW) 24.0.1.0 traditional, you can now continue running and completing your in-flight process and case instances on IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation, using the same instance databases from your traditional (Standard edition) environment. This will be accomplished with no data loss.

The diagram below illustrates the database reuse scenarios, where the workflow instance database is backed up and restored, and the case instance database is reused. This facilitates the completion of BAW instances in the container environment.

Supported databases in CP4BA 24.0.1:

  • IBM b2 only

Support added in CP4BA 25.0.0:

  • Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server
