Oracle Forms Migration Partners

Oracle Forms Migration Partners
Customers with an investment in Oracle Forms wishing to upgrade and modernize their architecture have many options.  The Oracle Forms Upgrade Center contains information about upgrading to Forms on the web and integrating with Oracle Application Server.  You can then learn about how Forms can participate in the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) world, and how you can reuse your Forms skills with J2EE development on the J2EE Application Development for Forms and Designer Developers page.

For some customers, another viable option is migration of their Forms application and business logic to Java.  This page contains a list of Oracle Partners and Services who may be able to help with migrating your Forms applications to J2EE and Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF).

The following list is in alphabetical order.

Extract your Business Logic with PITSS.converter, a web based Oracle development tool that allows you to upgrade\maintain\migrate your existing Oracle Forms and Reports application. One of the hardest tasks in any Migration project is keeping the Business Logic investment that is contained inside of your Oracle Forms and Reports application. PITSS.con will automatically extract this Business Logic, and all required supporting Program Units and code in Libraries, and place all of this code into a new Package on the Database. Once located on the DB, this code is available to be called by Oracle Forms and Reports, ADF, Apex, J2EE or any other Web-Based UI that can either access the DB directly or via a Web Service. PITSS.con will even create the Web Service for you on any of the Database objects.
