The system cannot find the path

Yeah but if they are on Prem what does this mean>?

I don’t think it has any relevance here. I think the OP was just calling out what they’ve seen.

Probably nothing, this nerd stuff is hard and I’m just trying to throw out some information around paths breaking.

No that’s cool, I’m trying to nerd out as well… what does that mean for on premise customers that want to install Kinetic 2025.1 or .2 or 2026 down the line…?

Nothing. They said on-prem isn’t changing (for now).

If it was changing are you saying we’d run on Linux?

Yes

so no longer windows/.NET IIS? Maybe we can geek out at insights and get more of the scoop for what on prem looks like.

Not for the cloud. They are moving to Linux containers. They’ve said on-prem isn’t going to move to containers. At least not right now.

The big three cloud companies tried to push everyone to the cloud ten years ago. Overtime they realized there are workloads that exist on-prem or in private clouds (real-time shop floor workloads, resiliency strategies, data sovereignty, …)

It appears that Epicor (and other ERP suppliers for that matter) are in the same place that the big cloud providers were ten years ago. Eventually, some ERP suppliers will come to the same conclusion and expand their offering to include “ERP In Your Cloud.” They would still provide the same upgrade services but not take on the infrastructure costs or risk of outages that happen with Azure or other clouds. In the meantime, this opens the door for on-prem users to shop around before being abandoned.

Not entirely true. All the same code changes are being applied with conversion workbench. DLLs continue to migrate to compatible core DLLs and code adjustments are being made for pathing that will no longer be acceptable on Linux. I would expect at some point we will lose the IIS/SQL version of Epicor and have the ability to run something like a Docker. Plan on it.

True. I guess I meant the way we run it on-prem isn’t changing right now. Behind the scenes it’s moving to core. But, for on-prem as of right now it’s still run in IIS with MS SQL.

I fully expect this to happen at some point. Just not yet for on-prem.
