What the best practices for deploying confluence?

[Corey Henderson]

I'm looking to build deployment scripts for a confluence site so I can replicate the production environment in staging and development. What are the best practices here? Do I just need to worry abou the database or are there other files that change?

Hi Corey,

In a nutshell, to migrate your Confluence you should copy the database data and the home directory. That is it, so if you intend to create a script just focus on copying those two.

Not to forget implementing a developer license for your staging environment.

Hi Corey,

The normal procedure for migrating Confluence to another test server is described in https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Migrating+Confluence+Between+Servers

Hope it helps!
