Just need simple layman’s answers.
I am running ML8.0.1.1 and have been for about 2 years on a dedicated server with basically no customization and running the default skin. I am upgrading to the newest ML version 9.?? I am also moving to a shared hosted cloud.
My questions are probably simple to everyone here but I have over thought this and confused myself.
What is the path of least resistance in doing the move and upgrade? E.g. move the site, go live on the new server then upgrade? New install of the new version on the new server then move the data base and go live? Copy the old site, Upgrade to the new and then go live? Upgrade on the old server, and then do a complete move to the new server?
I have had all my work done in the past by professionals that seem to charge a lot of money for only a small amount of work, I think I can do at least part of this myself without paying big bucks.
