Oracle Modernization Approaches

Choose the Right Approach for Your Modernization Project
In contrast to common "rip and replace" strategies, Oracle Modernization focuses on the use of existing application assets when transferring functionality to the new languages, databases, services, and environments that comprise the next generation IT environment—thus ensuring that the modernized application does not contain any less functionality than did the legacy application. Although all modernization approaches attempt to preserve business content, different approaches preserve different amounts of technical content and provide different levels of application change. It is important to choose the correct approach for each modernization project.

ORACLE MODERNIZATION APPROACHES

  • COTS Replacement—Replace an existing legacy application with a commercial off-the-shelf packaged application made up of SOA components
  • SOA Enablement—Re-use legacy or re-hosted components by "wrapping" them as services in a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
  • Re-Architecting—Extract current business logic, re-factor, and re-generate to SOA components to achieve the maximum potential of next generation open systems environments
  • Automated Migration—Automated Migration—Eliminate legacy technologies by using transformation tools to convert applications to new languages and databases
  • Re-Hosting—Reduce cost by migrating an application "as-is" quickly to a lower cost platform and re-using the re-hosted components
