Hi Team,

As we need to migrate our ACE11 from IBM cloud to ACE12 and for this we have 3 options:

• Option 1: Self-managed App Connect software deployed on IBM Cloud (ROKS or IKS) with newer, richer set of capabilities at competitive price point. This is a software solution that you deploy yourself with choice and flexibility in deployment.
• Option 2: IBM Essentials Management (Expertise Connect) managed service on client's choice of cloud infrastructure
• Option 3: App Connect Enterprise as a Service is a multi-tenant SaaS offering which will provide access to Designer, Toolkit and the latest features for app integration
  
  We have tried option 3 to check as we do not have much flows in our application like we have 8-9 event driven flows and 6-7 apis flows. Can anyone suggest which is the best option to choose for the migration.
  
  Thanks,
  Deepali Kaushik

Hi Deepali, 

The best option would depend on several factors, such as the team... if you are coming from a managed service on IBM cloud, and other factors. Would you be able email me at gabriel.marte@ibm.com so that I can put you in contact with someone internally? I think it would be best that way so that we can get all the details and recommend the best approach. 

Since we are both at IBM, it could be easier to get in touch then bring back the answer to the community.
