How to Upgrade from Legacy (.NET) RESTful Engine to Modern RESTful Engine (Java)

The RESTful engine has been rewritten in Java for the benefit of all of our customers. See our blog post for specific details on why this was done. This guide will help you upgrade from the legacy .NET RESTful engine to the modern RESTful engine.

Install the Java RESTful Engine

There are a couple of ways you can install the Java RESTful engine:

  1. You can install it in Tomcat on your machine directly.
  2. You can use Docker to run the RESTful engine.

Migrating Your Data

Once you've installed the Java RESTful engine, you'll need to migrate your data from the .NET RESTful engine to the Java RESTful engine especially if you're using cached templates. Simply copy the App_Data folder from the .NET RESTful engine to the Tomcat webapps/App_Data directory.
