Data migration from Pega 5.5 to Pega 8.5
Hi we are rebuilding the Pega 5 application on to Pega 8 platform from scratch .
No reuse of the existing code.
Business functionality demand the Pega 5 work objects to be available in Pega 8 system as well.
There are inflight and resolved work objects in pega 5 .we need to move everything to new system .
so they can process the work items or equivalent work items in the new pega 8.5
Please suggest data migration approach.
Few pointers:
The Pega 5 blob encryption is different than pega 8 .
The class structure is different between Pega 5 and Pega 8.
Current DB is UDB migrating to Postgress.
