Benefits and reasons for migrations
Migration versus upgrade and migration scenarios
Scenario 1. Migrate, Regenerate All, No Redesign
Scenario 2. Migrate, Regenerate All, With Redesign
Scenario 3. Migrate, Regenerate Incrementally
Scenario 4. Migration only of developer components and database components
Scenario 5. Design Capture of database elements and developer components
Chapter 2 What has changed in Designer?
Storage of structured elements
Storage of unstructured elements or files
Folder and file synchronization
Chapter 3 A version enabled repository versus a non-versioned repository
Unversioned structured elements
Unversioned structured elements with unversioned folder/file support
Versioned structured elements with versioned folder/file support
Chapter 2 Prerequisites and installation notes
