It is assumed that the Bold BI DB server has public access, either through a Managed instance or a server deployed in an online VM. To migrate the database, you can refer to this article: link. Follow the steps below to migrate the Bold BI instance from Kubernetes to Linux.

Back up the app_data files from the Fileshare using the document below, according to your cloud provider’s specifications.

Cluster Provider	Help Link
EKS File storage	https://docs.aws.amazon.com/efs/latest/ug/awsbackup.html
AKS File storage	https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-afs
GKE File storage	https://cloud.google.com/filestore/docs/backups

Deploy the Bold BI application in the Linux environment with DNS by following this document.

Note: You can use the same DNS or new DNS for Linux deployment.
Restore the app_data on the Linux machine in the following location: /var/www/bold-services/.
Follow the steps below if you are using a new DNS/IP for the Linux environment. If you are using the same DNS, then you can switch to the next step directly.
- Navigate to [new DNS]/ums/administration in the browser.
  https://linux-migrate.boldbi.com/ums/administration
  
  Note: You can use the same Bold BI application login credentials for the new Linux environment.
- Update the new DNS/IP and enable the checkbox.
- After updating the new IP/DNS, save the changes.
Stop the Kubernetes site and restart all services by using the command below.
```
sudo systemctl restart bold-*
```
Now, the Bold BI application has been completely migrated from Kubernetes to the Linux environment. You can access Bold BI with the same login credentials.
