= Planned migration strategy =
We plan to develop Kitsune in tandem with TikiWiki and migrate components over one at a time or in functional groups.
[[Support/SUMOMigrationOrder]]
= System components =
Cheng is in the process of developing a PRD for support forums.
= Database design and migration =
The Kitsune database will have a different schema from TikiWiki (this being one of the reasons for building a new solution). However, we will need to migrate data across, including:
* User accounts
* Wiki articles
* Forum posts
Since we plan on migrating components over piecemeal, we will be running the two schema in parallel for some time. We will need to plan when to migrate data. Options include:* Migrate data to the new schema as components migrate* Migrate everything at the beginning and write an adapter for Tiki* Duplicate some data (for example: users table) and have a process to keep old and new tables in sync until the migration is finished.
* "Kitsune (狐, きつね, ki·tsu·ne) is the Japanese word for fox. Foxes are a common subject of Japanese folklore; kitsune usually refers to them in this context. Stories depict them as intelligent beings and as possessing magical abilities that increase with their age and wisdom. Foremost among these is the ability to assume human form."
