Guiding your transition

Oracle workloads don't get easier with time. We’ve helped over 100 organizations
across the Benelux find a way forward through these common challenges:

Legacy infrastructure

Aging systems (like Oracle 11g/12c) are nearing or past end-of-support, with performance that no longer meets business demands. We bridge the gap to OCI.

Database modernization

Migrating to Database 26ai shouldn’t disrupt your business. We modernize your core data while ensuring your daily operations keep running smoothly.

Modernization

Application modernization

Oracle Forms, EBS customizations, and legacy Java are becoming harder to maintain. We help you move these critical processes to a modern, scalable environment.

Cost optimization
& compliance

Licensing models are difficult to navigate and cloud costs often spiral. We help you get the clarity and grip you need to stay compliant and cost-effective.

Oracle modernization pathways

Every Oracle environment comes with unique challenges. That’s why we provide four proven pathways - focused on migration, modernization, and cloud optimization - designed to minimize risk and maximize results.

Select a pathway to explore your options

Starting point
  • Readiness: analysis of your current environment and 26ai compatibility.
  • AI Assessment: mapping features like AI Vector Search and Generative AI to your specific data.
  • Planning: clear risk analysis, migration timeline, and license & support cost optimization.
Our approach
  • Direct migration: using Oracle Zero Downtime Migration to move from 19c to 26ai on OCI.
  • Managed modernization: migrate legacy databases to a fully managed 26ai environment with built-in AI capabilities.
  • Hybrid strategy: secure, gradual migration with optimized on-premise connectivity.
What you get
  • Minimal downtime: production databases running on OCI with minimal business impact during cutover.
  • AI-Ready data: enterprise data enhanced with robust security and role-based access policies.
  • Resilience: improved backup, recovery, and verified disaster recovery configurations.
  • Cost control: predictable, optimized cloud and platform costs.
Starting point
  • Inventory: current EBS version and customization audit.
  • Infrastructure sizing: infrastructure deployment model selection (single-node, multi-node, or database service).
  • Integration: mapping of all connected systems and interfaces.
Our approach
  • Automated migration: lift-and-shift using oracle EBS cloud manager for automated provisioning.
  • Multi-tier architecture: deployment with separated application and database tiers for optimized production workloads.
  • Phased execution: migration using parallel environments to minimize business disruption.
What you get
  • Performance: EBS running on oci with improved availability and speed.
  • Flexibility: choice of deployment models including compute, vm database, autonomous database, or exadata cloud service.
  • Integration: a secure, scalable, and fully integrated ebs cloud environment.
  • Efficiency: reduced infrastructure management overhead for your internal it team.
Starting point
  • Expertise gap: bridging the lack of in-house expertise for maintaining legacy Oracle Forms, Reports, and PL/SQL business logic.
  • Lifecycle status: review of current Forms versions (12c nearing end-of-support; 14c support through 2029).
  • Complexity analysis: classification of modules into simple, medium, and complex.
Our approach
  • Assessment & prioritization: definition of which modules migrate to cloud and which we modernize to cloud-native APEX.
  • Logic preservation: re-use existing PL/SQL business logic while modernizing the user interface and experience using APEX cloud.
  • Phased migration: strategy allowing Forms and new APEX applications to run simultaneously during transition.
  • Platform evaluation: analysis of alternative paths (Java, .NET, or low-code) where APEX is not the best fit.
What you get
  • Supported platform: legacy applications running on a secure, supported OCI platform while planning a full modernization strategy.
  • Modern UX: preserved business logic delivered via a modern, intuitive user interface.
  • Cloud-readiness: optimized applications running on OCI with Autonomous Database.
  • Reduced overhead: minimized middleware dependencies (no more WebLogic requirements for Forms).
Starting point
  • Deployment review: assessment of your current APEX environment (on-premises, third-party, or existing OCI).
  • Performance analysis: evaluation of application resource needs and usage patterns.
  • Security & compliance: mapping of GDPR, data residency, and authentication requirements.
Our approach
  • Migration: transition to a fully managed APEX environment on Database VM or Autonomous Database.
  • Architecture design: selecting the right service tier—from APEX Service to dedicated Exadata.
  • Identity management: integration of OCI IAM for enterprise-grade authentication and access control.
  • Connectivity & scale: configuration of custom domains, load balancing, and traffic management.
What you get
  • Enterprise hosting: high-availability APEX environments with automatic scaling.
  • Managed lifecycle: end-to-end management of patching, backups, and APEX version upgrades.
  • Service integration: direct access to 100+ OCI services, including AI, Object Storage, and Email Delivery.
  • Data sovereignty: compliance-ready hosting with EU data residency in Frankfurt and Madrid.
