Introduction to mobility

The mobility feature enables users to export or move a template to private or public cloud. The original template must always be in the private cloud.

You can export:

  • multi-disk templates to other datacenters managed by Abiquo
  • single boot disks to public cloud regions in
    • AWS
    • Azure: You cannot upload more than one file with the same name in the same account and region. The file name is the unique part of the container name which is combined with the account name and region

To export to public cloud, you must first prepare the templates according to the cloud provider instructions.
See Preparing Templates for Export to Public Cloud


Abiquo uses the BPM - V2V conversion service to perform any required conversions and to upload the template to public cloud.

During an export, the platform will queue the BPM and V2V processes for conversions, instances, and persistent templates.
