Hi,

      Any updates to this thread on AEM guides related migration tools, if any available OOB unlike AEM as a cloud provides couple of migration tools - right from Content and asset migration, BPA analyzer etc.?

We moved all our DITA content from SDL LCA to AEM Guides one publication at a time, using the same SDL tools used to extract content for translation. We then ran our files through a custom pre-processor script that our IT department wrote for us that prepared the DITA files for AEM. The script was also able to push the content directly into AEM using existing APIs and we just had to move the files to their final folder structure location. I don't believe there are any existing tools from AEM to do this.

It took 3 people about 8 months (while doing our normal work) to move about 2000 maps/publications.
