Hello everyone, Currently we are deploying AWX on VM’s using caddy / postgres/ rabbitmq/ memcached images [the image versions are also very old]. However we want to migrate to kubernetes environment. What would be the best way to migrate and what version of AWX should we install [ensuring its stable enough] Thanks !! ---

Hi, We recommend a fresh install via the latest version of awx-operator. As for playbook / data migration, you can look into using awx-cli or awx collections. Take a look at the following links Since your version sounds older (i.e. your mention of rabbitmq), you could also potentially try the old tower-cli [3] which has a send/receive function. That library has been deprecated for a while so you will unlikely see any support around that if it fails. 1] [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towercli/examples.html#import-export](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towercli/examples.html#import-export) [2] [https://galaxy.ansible.com/awx/awx](https://galaxy.ansible.com/awx/awx) [3] [https://pypi.org/project/ansible-tower-cli/](https://pypi.org/project/ansible-tower-cli/) Seth
