MIGRATION PIPELINE

A four-stage process engineered for reliability and speed.

STAGE_01

PARSE

Analyze source Sitecore content tree and dependency graph

  • Template inheritance mapping
  • Item relationship detection
  • Media library indexing
  • Workflow state capture
STAGE_02

TRANSFORM

Convert legacy structures to XM Cloud compatible format

  • Field type conversion
  • Rendering parameter migration
  • Placeholder key mapping
  • Security role translation
STAGE_03

VALIDATE

Ensure data integrity and compatibility

  • Schema validation
  • Reference integrity checks
  • Content length limits
  • Character encoding verification
STAGE_04

SERIALIZE

Output to XM Cloud serialization format

  • YAML item serialization
  • Incremental export
  • Delta detection
  • Rollback snapshots

ENGINE FEATURES

Built from the ground up for enterprise Sitecore migrations.

Memory-Safe Rust Core

Built in Rust for maximum performance and memory safety. No garbage collection pauses during large migrations.

Incremental Processing

Only process changed items. Perfect for iterative migrations and continuous content sync.

Pipeline Flagging

Automatically identifies custom .NET pipeline logic that needs manual refactoring for XM Cloud.

Parallel Execution

Multi-threaded processing with configurable worker pools. Scale to your hardware.

Detailed Reporting

Comprehensive migration reports with item-level status, warnings, and error details.

Dry Run Mode

Preview migration results without writing changes. Validate before committing.

CLI REFERENCE

Common commands for migration workflows.

Analyze content tree and generate dependency report
alloy analyze --source ./master --output ./report.json
Preview migration with dry run mode
alloy migrate --config ./alloy.config.yaml --dry-run
Run incremental migration with 8 worker threads
alloy migrate --parallel 8 --incremental
Validate serialized output against XM Cloud schema
alloy validate --strict --schema xmcloud
