Hello @Manuel

Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A platform. In my opionion, it depends on your scenario. Please check on this preview feature - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/how-to-move-workspace

As the document said, there are a lot of limitations -

• Workspace move is not meant for replicating workspaces, or moving individual assets such as models or datasets from one workspace to another.
• Workspace move doesn't support migration across Azure regions or Azure Active Directory tenants.
• The workspace mustn't be in use during the move operation. Verify that all experiment jobs, data profiling jobs, and labeling projects have completed. Also verify that inference endpoints aren't being invoked.
• The workspace will become unavailable during the move.
• Before to the move, you must delete or detach computes and inference endpoints from the workspace.
• Datastores may still show the old subscription information after the move.

Especially the second point, if you are considering move the region, you may need to be careful. I hope this helps!

Let me know if you have more questions and we are happy to help.
