Where Does Nacos Store Data?
Nacos keeps configs in its backend store with application.properties beside it. Match backend versions across hosts.
Last updated
Nacos stores service configs in its configured backend store rather than flat files. Application properties beside the install point at Derby or MySQL. Cluster peers discover through those settings.
Back up the store plus properties together. Files alone carry no configs in server mode. Keep backend versions matched between old and new hosts.

Frequently asked questions
How do I migrate Nacos?
Back up the backend store plus application.properties to matching paths. Configs live in the store, not files. Re-point peers after moving.
Configs missing after moving. Why?
Check application.properties for the store backend first. Embedded Derby differs from external MySQL. Match the backend on the new host.
