Oracle to Oracle Migrations

Kumaran Systems with over a decade of experience in the field of migrations has established itself as a Migrations leader. Kumaran offers a comprehensive Oracle migration services suite to help you move to the latest versions of Oracle. Several of these migration services are tools based and hence partially automated with the automation level of 80%, thereby helping to maintain complete business logic while saving time and money.

With an increasing demand on realizing the benefits of a software upgrade in the short-term, it makes commercial sense to upgrade once Oracle compliant systems to a higher version of Oracle e.g., Oracle 9i/10g etc. An upgrade ensures, for our clients a quick ROI.

The Source Legacy Oracle versions we help migrate include Oracle 2.3, Oracle 3.0, Oracle 4.5, Oracle 6i web and Oracle 6i client server.

Kumaran Approach

Kumaran tools are capable of automatically converting your existing Oracle applications developed in lower version of Oracle Forms, e.g., Forms 2.5, 3.0, 4.5, 6.0 etc to higher versions of Oracle forms as released by Oracle corporation. Currently our tools, Object Converter & GUI Converter, are capable of migrating Oracle Forms from any above-mentioned lower versions to higher versions like Oracle 9i/10g.

OBJECT*Converter (OC) is a suite of fully automated Oracle Forms migration tools, which will migrate any version of Oracle Forms developed applications to Oracle Forms Developer 5, 6, 6i, 9i or 10g while providing you the latest features and support of Oracle's object-orientation. This conversion tool/software simplifies the process of web-enabling your legacy applications, while taking full advantage of the Internet based technology inherent in 6i / 9i / 10g. There will also be continued enhancement of Oracle functionality. The migrated code is then integrated manually, tested, customized and optimized by augmented manual services.

GUI*Converter 9i / 10g (GC) is the only automated Oracle Forms Migration tool / software that will migrate Oracle Forms 3.0 to Oracle Forms 9i / 10g and deploy on the Web. Its success can be attributed to its ability to shorten conversion times, thus drastically reducing total conversion costs. It is best suited to organizations planning to deploy converted applications to a GUI environment. This conversion tool/software provides a completely automated solution, including full mouse support, providing an effective solution for your database application needs. The migrated code is then integrated manually, tested, customized and optimized by augmented manual services.

  • The process of deploying the form in web is much easier
  • Upgradations of the Oracle application from one version to its higher version can be done in a simpler way
  • Support and service rendered for the Oracle application is very effective
  • All the migrated application can be deployed in Oracle Portal / 9iAS framework

Solution Features

The following are a few advantages of our tool based Oracle migration:

  • Maintenance of Software Investment - By migrating the existing application (instead of rewriting), the organization maintains its software assets and operation procedures.
  • Support for Industry Standards - Moving to the latest industry standards is vital in today’s competitive markets. The converted applications are fully Web Enabled as per the prevailing industry standards, functionally take advantage of new features and support the Web-Deployment of the forms.
  • Efficiency and User-friendliness - The total user interface is re-engineered to suite the target framework making the system very efficient and user friendly.
  • Compliance - The Migrated application code is made compliant to the application framework defined in the target.
