Migrate contents to another AEM instance

We need to migrate some (100+) of the contents from instance A to another instance(B). These include pages, content fragments, content fragment models, and tags. We only have a list of what needs to be migrated and what doesn't. And we cannot make any changes to the existing contents on A. 

Is it possible to do so without manually recreating all these contents on B?

Hi,

You can package out contents from Instance A and install the same on Instance B.

Ex: http://localhost:4502/crx/packmgr/index.jsp --> Create a Package, download the package and install them on Instance B.

 

You can also use crx2oak tool if it is a large data which can't be migrated through packages. - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/deploying/upgrading/using-crx2oak.html?lang=en

@coldbuffalo There are few things that you need to consider, before anyone can give you a precise solution:
1. What is the Content Volume (Size of Pages and Assets). Content Count can be 100 or 1000+, and the volume can still be MBs, which is manageable.

2. I am assuming both are AEM instances. Please add the type of AEM instances, for both Source and Destination (AEM On Prem, AMS, or AEMaaCS).

 

Based upon above information, we can suggest you :

a. Content packages - Package Manager

b. CTT tool

c. ACS tools

 

For Non AEM instances, solutions would be different
