Hi @muraliv34412056 ,

As a VM, it should work as such. One key dependency I see is you can't use external datastore as Adobe supports only AWS and Azure as per [1]

Hi @muraliv34412056 , can you please be more clear on the query? are you wanting to move the AEM instances or AWS instances? 

Documentation: 

For case 1:

It is just another cloud infrastructure. All you need to do is copy the AEM instance from existing AWS to GCP. Also do not forget to get a GCP expert.

FYI: https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs

For case 2: https://cloud.google.com/migrate/compute-engine/docs/4.8/how-to/migrate-aws-to-gcp/migrating-aws-vms

Thanks,

Kiran Vedantam.
