Inquiry about cloud migration

As our company is considering the possibility of launching in the cloud, I was wondering if you could provide some insight on how difficult it is to migrate from cloud to a self-hosted server. Specifically, we are interested in starting with your cloud solution, but we want to have the option to migrate to a self-hosted server in the future if it better suits our needs. If you could provide any information or resources related to this topic, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi @vlad.lyt ,

there’s an official documentation that shows you what needs to be done when you want to do that:

https://docs.mattermost.com/manage/cloud-data-export.html#migrate-from-cloud-to-self-hosted

It’s not that difficult, you just need to make sure that no new data is being created in your cloud setup when you run the migration and the destination server version should be at least on the version the cloud instance is running on.
