_Originally asked by Tushar on 07 June 2021 [(original question)](https://oldcommunity.exalate.com/questions/30048301)_ * * * We want to migrate 200 out of 600 Jira projects from On-Premises to AWS Jira center. The Source Jira is of V 7.10.XX and Destination JIRA is V 8.14.X. SO can we install the exalate plugin on both the JIRA tools and do synch ups? Below is JIRA migration plan: ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex018/uploads/exalate1/original/1X/445efa644cd6519bd8dbfb2d8fce2b6d87cdc5e4.jpeg) What objects did exalate plugin will cover? What are limitations using the exalate plugin. * * * ---

_Answer by Francis Martens (Exalate) on 07 June 2021_ Exalate is not a migration solution. Check corresponding document [Using Exalate for migration purposes](https://docs.idalko.com/exalate/x/XY0rAQ) * * * #### Comments: > **Tushar commented on 08 June 2021** > > > We are using “Configuration Manager for Jira” for migration from Server to AWS Cloud datacenter. The requirement is only 200 projects want to migrate to AWS.

_Answer by Tushar on 08 June 2021_ We are using “Configuration Manager for Jira” for migration from Server to AWS Cloud datacenter. The requirement is only 200 projects want to migrate to AWS. Once the migration for 200 projects gets completed, we will use the “Exalate” to synch the issues which are missed while doing the migration. Because users will use the source Jira while the migration work. Is exalate feasible to use in this usecase? * * * ---
