The migration framework of ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager

The server has a mechanism for the incremental migration of data from previous versions. With it, data can be migrated in all database systems (Oracle, MSSQL and PostgreSQL) supported by ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager. In addition, a portfolio of high-level API functions is available. These functions can be used within migration steps that you can write or change yourself to add tables and fields and to adapt data to new requirements.

The framework can be extended with Java classes. These must be available in text form. A compilation is not required. The internal migration logic determines the steps required to adapt data structures and data on the currently started server using an individually customizable XML migration plan.

Warning

In order to prevent data loss and irreversible changes to your data, you are recommended that you perform a full backup of all your data. To do so, use the administrative tool from your database system.
