How to Migrate Your Self-Hosted Service to Temporal Cloud

Temporal Cloud offers improved scalability, availability, latency, and cost-effectiveness compared to self-hosted Temporal. Migration from self-hosted Temporal to Temporal Cloud involves routing new executions to the Temporal Cloud namespace while resuming existing ones in that namespace. Currently, migrations occur at the application level rather than the database level. Key tasks for migration include introducing a new Temporal Client, deciding on data encryption strategy, choosing the lifetime strategy of Workflow Executions, updating code calling Workflows, and creating a test and verification plan. The process may take a day or so depending on the complexity of Workflows. Our team will guide you through every step of your migration for no extra fee.
