To migrate your DataHub environment from STG (Staging) to PROD (Production) without having to reconfigure everything manually, you can use the DataHub CLI to export and import metadata. This process allows you to transfer metadata, glossary, domains, and other configurations between environments efficiently.

Here’s a high-level overview of the steps involved:

1. Export Metadata from STG Environment: Use the DataHub CLI to export the metadata from your STG environment.
2. Import Metadata to PROD Environment: Use the DataHub CLI to import the metadata into your PROD environment.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Export Data from STG Environment:

   • Ensure you have access to the DataHub CLI.
   • Use the datahub export command to export metadata from your STG environment.

   datahub export --platform datahub --path /path/to/exported/data --config /path/to/stg/environment/config.yml
   

   Replace /path/to/exported/data with the path where you want to save the exported data, and /path/to/stg/environment/config.yml with the path to your STG environment configuration file.

2. Import Data to PROD Environment:

   • Use the datahub import command to import the metadata into your PROD environment.

   datahub import --platform datahub --path /path/to/exported/data --config /path/to/prod/environment/config.yml
   

   Replace /path/to/exported/data with the path where the exported data is saved, and /path/to/prod/environment/config.yml with the path to your PROD environment configuration file.

For more detailed instructions, you can refer to the <DataHub CLI | DataHub CLI documentation> and the <https://datahubproject.io/docs/how/backup-datahub/|DataHub Backup Documentation>.
