Scenario:
We have developed an application on Pega Platform 8.7.x that is installed on Tomcat/Postgres. We DO NOT use UDF or PL/Java functions, so have many properties “optimized for reporting” within this application on our DEV environment.
In integrating with another company/integrator/developer, we are to use a STAGING environment that is Pega Platform 8.7.x installed on Tomcat/Oracle.
With the databases being different, are there any issues to expect when exporting/importing the package RAP of our application? Are there extra steps we need to consider when planning this? It will be a continued pipeline rather than a one time export/import, but at this point we are looking to plan the first deployment cycle and trying to understand what to expect if the databases are different between the DEVELOPMENT and STAGING environments.
Thanks in advance!
