Migrate from AEM CRX to a standalone JackRabbit OAK repository

[willw34480670]

I read link https://medium.com/@anmolbhardwaj94/17-5-things-jcr-jackrabbit-oak-d2b91d256330#:~:text=CRX%20was%20...., based on that information it seems that AEM CRX is JackRabbit AOK.

Why I need to know this is: Can we migrate from this CRX 1 on 1 to a standalone JackRabbit OAK repository?

Hi @willw34480670 

whats your intention? which version of AEM you are using? you can see the crx/de details here: http://localhost:4502/crx/de/index.jsp

We are working on a new application that uses Jackrabbit OAK with as starting point data from AEM/CRX.

That's why I was wondering if a 1:1 copy is possible.

Repository migration is not possible, but you can synchronize repositories between CRX1 and OAK.

In any JCR-compliant repository, there are two components: a node store and a segment store. Instead of performing a migration, it is essential to synchronize each type individually, with a preference for syncing the node store first and then the segment store.

Use can download the following crx2oak tool 
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/adobe/granite/crx2oak/

and follow the official documentation

Hi @willw34480670 ,

CRX2Oak is a tool designed to migrate data between different repositories.

It can be used to migrate data from older CQ versions based on Apache Jackrabbit 2 to Oak, and it can also be used to copy data between Oak repositories.

You can download the newest version of crx2oak from the public Adobe repository at this location:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/adobe/granite/crx2oak/

For more details on it please follow below link

Thanks
