Migration to Lobster Cloud

Prev Next

This section guides you through the migration from an existing on-premise Lobster installation or another Lobster Cloud environment to a new Lobster Cloud system.

Lobster Cloud migrations follow a structured, profile-based transfer process. Your new cloud environment is provisioned as a clean, blank installation following Lobster Cloud standards. Profiles are then transferred from your existing system using the built-in Transport Manager.

Direct database imports, file system transfers, or database dumps are not supported.
