Migrating software to a new deployment environment can be a complex yet rewarding process, be it on-prem VM-based setups or adopting containerized architectures. Whether you're moving to a virtual machine (VM) deployment or embracing the flexibility of containers, each form factor presents its own set of challenges and opportunities for performance optimization. I have curated a list of valuable resources and product documentation that focus on best practices for migrating to App Connect Enterprise v13 software in on-prem VM based deployment or to the container form factor, i.e. ACE Certified Containers(ACEcc). Additionally, I share references to the documentation on backup and restore procedures for each environment. The article also contains references to some of the performance tuning best practices to help you ensure your application runs efficiently and scales effectively in these new environments.
