Welcome to the sonar-data-migrator wiki!

This wiki focuses on basic usage of a Sonar data migrator tool. With this tool, one will able to migrate sonar data from one sonar server to another sonar server. This type of migration is sometimes required when user wants to use another sonar server which is already having many other reports and it is not possible to point old sonar database with new sonar server.

Some Use cases

• Sometimes 2 or more teams are working in isolation and both are using sonar as code quality control tool. Later they or organization decide to keep a single sonar platform and everyone have to use it. In that case everyone have to migrate their data to common sonar instance.

• Another use case is, you are migrating your sonar setup to another bigger setup which might be using totally different database. And you might need to migrate only few projects and not all obsolete one. So you can avoid DB dump with all old data and just migrate required projects to new sonar instance.
