Migrating from other products

You can migrate applications and configuration data from certain IBM® products that existed before IBM Business Process Manager or IBM Integration Designer.

Migration from another product to IBM Business Process Manager is supported from the following products:

WebSphere® InterChange Server version 4.2.0 or later. For more information see Migrating from WebSphere InterChange Server or WebSphere Business Integration Server Express.
WebSphere Business Integration Server Foundation versions 5.1 and 5.1.1. For more information see Migrating from WebSphere Studio Application Developer Integration Edition.
WebSphere MQ Workflow version 3.6. For more information, see Migrating from WebSphere MQ Workflow.

Note: You can also migrate to IBM Business Process Manager from certain versions of WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus and WebSphere Application Server, as well as from prior versions of WebSphere Process Server itself. For more information about migration from these products, see Migrating from previous versions.

For migration from another product to IBM Business Process Manager (for example, WebSphere InterChange Server or WebSphere Business Integration Server Foundation for z/OS® to IBM Business Process Manager) , the migration steps include using migration tools to convert source artifacts to the new IBM Business Process Manager version of the artifacts.

WebSphere Integration Developer contains migration tools that assist in migrating existing application source artifacts to IBM Business Process Manager artifacts. These tools can be accessed through the File > Import.. wizards of WebSphere Integration Developer. The migration tools designed to assist with migration from WebSphere InterChange Server can also be accessed through the command line of IBM Business Process Manager.
