Open Source Document Management System | OpenKM

Hello,

We are going to use OpenKm within our organization but before proceeding, wanted to know that, we are going to us AWS storage with Openkm/dms so in future if we make any change with storage provider/server like server change/DC change or location then how do we need to move or stored data from one service provider to another service provider or how to change/move stored data from one location to another location or server? Will there be any data loss or any problem for which will have to worry about it?

We will install Openkm on EC2 instance and will use S3 storage for openkm.

I hope you will understand our query and advise us accordingly.

Thanks.

About S3, we do not like much this kind of configuration ( for performance reasons ), anyway consider you should mount the S3 as a disk in term of OS ( from OS should be as a standard disk ).

About data you have two options:
- backup current OpenKM and restore in another server ( that means files into tomcat folder and repository plus database dump )
- export data ( in the administration we have export tools what in future will help to export all de data - optionally metadata into json file with extension .okm , what will help to import into another OpenKM or another application you wish to keep your data in future -> basically OpenKM will not be a prison for your data in future ).
