Abstract: Extensions to a source software application are migrated to a target. Template records are constructed containing corresponding sets of attributes for source and target applications. Analysis of a source extension yields source extension attributes. A matching template record is used to map the source extension attributes to corresponding target extension attributes. A proposal for a migrated target extension is formulated, simulated in a sandbox, and committed to the target application. Client interaction supports selection or approval of application versions, proposals, or simulation output. Template records, constructed without knowledge of specific extensions implemented on a particular application instance, are provided to the source application environment, enabling remaining migration operations to be performed locally in source and target environments, maintaining data privacy. Examples are provided for a front-end software application in a database environment. Methods and apparatus are disclosed, with variations, extensions, and applicability to diverse software applications.
