I am already a Jahia client. How can I migrate to the cloud?

Jahia Cloud supports Jahia versions 7.3.1.1 and higher. You can migrate sites using Jahia's built-in import/export feature, provided you are running the supported version. Otherwise, we can help you migrate your instance and then to the Cloud. We can also explore other options with you, such as a database import for very large websites.

How do I manage my environments?

We work hard to live by our "Make Digital Simpler" motto. Jahia Cloud is a simple yet powerful web application that you can use to manage your Jahia environments. From creating, upgrading, and backing up your environment, to scaling, configuring and copying your environment, you can manage your platforms without technical skills.

What is the upgrade policy?

You choose when to update your platform. Jahia only requires that you upgrade when it is unavoidable, for example, to address a security issue or if your version becomes unsupported. Versions typically becomes unsupported 2 years after they are released.

Platform upgrades are automated, can be performed without downtime, and you can trigger them yourself. When code breaking changes happen, Jahia releases a migration guide that explains the steps required to migrate the custom code. In this case, it is the customer's responsiblity to upgrade their code before upgrading.
