Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

The Migration Accelerator focuses on content extraction and transformation. Specifically, it:

Scrapes any public website or exports from a CMS
Extracts reusable content like text, images, documents, and metadata
Maps this content to Magnolia pages and components
Automates bulk content import into Magnolia

Pages, assets, metadata, SEO tags, structured content, and form configurations — depending on the source CMS.

Timelines vary by complexity and source, but the Migration Accelerator cuts it to hours instead of days, weeks, or months.

The Migration Accelerator is platform-agnostic and works with virtually any source CMS — from enterprise suites to headless systems. A few common examples include:

Enterprise suites: Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), Sitecore, Drupal
Headless CMSs: Contentful, Storyblock, Strapi
Legacy systems: OpenText, custom-built CMSs

If it has web-accessible content or exports, we can likely migrate it.

The Migration Accelerator does not handle complex system integrations or application-level logic. That means:

No integrations with external APIs, CRMs, eCommerce or marketing platforms
No custom workflows, personalization logic, or backend systems

Magnolia offers professional services and partner solutions to support these needs alongside your migration.

While the Migration Accelerator focuses on content, AI-driven workflows can also streamline migrating logic to Magnolia. They analyze legacy code and documentation to create detailed blueprints, generate Magnolia-ready modules and configurations, validate functionality, and flag gaps. By identifying redundant logic and suggesting optimizations, this approach automates tasks, eases debugging, and speeds migration to a fully operational Magnolia implementation.
