The migration process consists of sequential phases. Complete each phase in order:
| Phase | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Planning your migration | Review your current deployment and produce a migration plan. |
| Before you begin | Prepare your Event Streams instance and client applications before you start the migration. |
| Setting up Confluent Platform | Deploy the target Confluent Platform cluster by using CFK. |
| Migrating components and applications | Migrate users, schemas, topics, data, client applications, and Kafka Connect and connectors. |
| Validating your migration | Verify that applications, connectors, and performance meet expectations on Confluent Platform. |
| Decommissioning Event Streams | Remove your Event Streams instance after all applications and integrations are validated. |
