Why Automation Cloud?
Maximize Utilization
New tools immediately activated
with no hardware, installation, or
downtime required
Less time spent on maintaining
environments means more time
focused on growth
Democratize the automation
experience effortlessly
Reduce the strain on IT and
infrastructure resources
UiPath maintained update
schedule ~ every 2 weeks
Automatic Upgrades Remove Barriers
Trials of new products can easily
be performed without requiring
installation
Unlimited Tenants in the cloud
Provision bots only when there is
work to do with Cloud-
Orchestrated Robots
Automation Cloud Robots are
available (UiPath will host the
robot VMs reducing infra needs to
zero)

Prerequisites for Migration
1. Prepare for post-migration robot access to UiPath Automation Cloud
• Work with IT Teams to ensure connectivity to on premise
resources such as robots
2. Understand how cloud can impact record retention, data residency,
and industry specific compliance
3. Create an execution plan and determine migration strategy
4. Understand the major differences between Self Hosted
Orchestrator and UiPath Automation Cloud:

Who is it for?
Customers migrating from On-Premises to UiPath
Automation Cloud need a simple way to mass-migrate their
Orchestrator data (packages, processes, queues, triggers,
etc.) & not start over in Cloud from scratch.
Provide customers with an automated tool that takes an existing
On-Premises Orchestrator and replicates its data into the
customer's Automation Cloud organization. This enables the
customer to move their existing automations and setup to Cloud
without missing a beat.
Need to provide an easy, seamless, self-service way to perform
this migration.
The need of the customer…..

Automation Cloud Migration Tool
What is the Automation Cloud
Migration Tool?
A self-service .exe desktop application.
Leveraging Orchestrator APIs, the customer can:
• Connect to an On-Premises Orchestrator tenant
• Export a copy of Orchestrator entities
• Import them into a Cloud Orchestrator tenant
What does it do?
• No code, command line, or developer experience
required to run the tool.
• No downtime or disruption to On Premise tenant
• Support for Orchestrator v19.10+
• Can be used against an Automation Cloud
Enterprise Trial, ProTrial, Pro, or Enterprise
account
• Migrates data for Classic & Modern Folders
• Airgapped & Non-airgapped migration
• Scope does not include historic data such as job
logs or processed transactions

Unattended VM-based Robot capacity provisioned, started and stopped as
needed in your own AWS, Azure or GCP cloud network – for lower cloud costs.
On-Premises or Private Cloud
Robots and supporting infrastructure hosted physically or virtually on-
prem for maximum control and/or network proximity to on-prem systems
Public Cloud self-managed
Multiple options including Robots self-installed in any service that
supports a Windows VM, or easy BYOL marketplace installation from
AWS or Azure

Note! These numbers are not theoretical design limits, but the present extent of our testing for large-scale implementations.
Load tested scale for Automation Cloud
In partnership with a large on-premises UiPath customer, who is in the process of migrating to Automation
Cloud™, we have load tested a single Automation Cloud tenant up to the following scale:

Editor's Notes
So in many ways, the value of Automation Cloud is the value of the UiPath Business Automation Platform.
But why Cloud?
Well, as we already talked about, it’s the most comprehensive way to get the platform
It’s the …
Just to make the delivery options, and capabilities of each a little clearer, we have this chart.
It shows clearly how Automation Cloud and Automation Suite enable you to get the most capability from UiPath – both in terms of the integrated products included and what we call “Unified Admin” – built-in technical capabilities that maximize enterprise capability.
We operate a “cloud-first, customer choice” policy, which means that the absolute most capability is available first as SaaS in Automation Cloud. Following that, in a future on-prem release we bring those new capabilities into Automation Suite, for customers who cannot go with Automation Cloud for policy or other reasons.
Both Automation Cloud and Automation Suite are licensed with UiPath Flex SKU’s, which, as the name implies, allow you to run either SaaS or Self-hosted, and move between them as you wish.
Perhaps less obviously, but very importantly though, Automation Cloud and Automation Suite have Unified Admin. This is a value multiplier across all those included products and you see some of the highlights on the right. But broadly there are two ways you get additional value:
First: There are lots of additional features for operating efficiently in an enterprise environment.
Second: There are additional integrations between the products, and in some cases additional features within the products. We expect this differentiation between standalone and Cloud or Suite versions of products to continue.
So going to Automation Cloud or Automation Suite isn’t just about getting all the products a different way. It’s much more.
The MSI Standalone column shows you what we have available as our standalone, RPA centric products. As you can see, this is quite a subset of the full capability, and does not include products like UiPath Apps and Automation Ops. They also don’t include the additional capabilities across and within the products (like Insights offering analytics of additional areas across the platform), or significant additional tooling to deliver, govern and operate the business UiPath Automation Platform itself more cost-effectively and with a faster time to value.
So, as the slide makes clear, we are about cloud-first, customer choice for delivery of the Business Automation Platform – with flex licensing, you can use either Automation Cloud or Automation Suite. Our typical recommendation for most customers is that Automation Cloud offers the fastest time to value with the lowest TCO, both for getting up and running quickly and, importantly, for adding more capability in the future as your automation needs change.
