Model Migration from Anaplan Cloud workspace to Google Cloud workspace

Hi Anaplan,

 

Does anyone know if it is possible to migrate a model from the Anaplan Cloud to the Google Cloud and vice versa?

 

If a model has been constructed in a customer's Anaplan Cloud workspace can it still be migrated to a different customer's Google Cloud workspace using a Model ID and Workspace ID?

 

Any information would be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks

 

Tom

  • Hi Tom,

    No, Anaplan is a true cloud platform, we maintain, monitor and update the platform so that we can ensure reliability and security. There is no need for customers to manage these tasks and allowing them concentrate on modelling their business processes. This precludes customer from setting the platform on their own hardware or cloud platforms as we would no longer have the access needed to do this.

    Is there any particular reason why you are asking?

  • Hi Seb,

    Gosh this is an old one! This was actually related to a customer who was migrating to GCP and who had models already implemented on Anaplan's Cloud.

    There was no expectation of the customer to be able to perform this migration but i think at the time we were told it was not possible for anaplan to move the models between cloud providers. Is this still the case?

    Thanks & hope you've been well

  • Hi Tom,

    Was just going through unanswered posts, did notice how old it was before I responded

    Anaplan have a hybrid approach to data centres using our own DCs as well as AWS and GCP depending on the region. This allows us greater flexibility and the ability to have DCs closer to our customers. Assignment of tenants to DC is done internally at Anaplan and while do do take customer preference into account it is not done by request.

    Thanks Seb
