You can use the Migration process to migrate objects from the currently installed version to a new upgraded version. This process also allows you to take a backup of all objects and configuration files from the current installation and restore them whenever required.
For example, you are currently using Adeptia Server 4.4 on your system. With the release of Adeptia Server 4.5, you want to upgrade to this new version. After installing it, you need to transfer all data from Adeptia Server 4.4 to Adeptia Server 4.5. To do this, you can use the Migration process.You can use the Migration process to insert objects from the source database to the target database. However, you cannot update the objects in the target database.
