Migration from Oracle Forms 12c to the latest version, Oracle Forms 14c

Description

Discover how Novacomp successfully executed the migration of the critical applications “ENTERPRESE” and “SISPA” for a public sector fisheries and aquaculture entity, transitioning from an On-Premise environment on Oracle Forms & Reports 12c to the latest version, Oracle Forms & Reports 14c (version 14.1.2.0.0). Through an infrastructure restructuring and service decoupling, operational continuity, official vendor support, and system security were guaranteed.

What will you discover in this document?

By reading this case study, you will learn:
  • The challenge of coupled infrastructure and obsolescence: The operational risks of maintaining test and production environments sharing the same server, disk, WebLogic, and print queues, in addition to resolving hardcoded credentials and fixed IPs in the code, along with the lack of official Oracle support.
  • The structured migration approach: The implementation of a phased strategy following industry best practices—installing databases, separating dedicated servers for test and production, and performing progressive validations with pilot applications prior to final compilation.
  • The technology stack and deployed architecture: The use of Windows Server 2022, Oracle Database 19c (19.30), Java JDK 17, WebLogic 14c (14.1.2.0.0), and the full Oracle Forms & Reports 14c suite.
  • Results and business continuity impact: Achieving a project executed in record time with guaranteed vendor technical support, securing Premier Support through December 2030 and Extended Support through December 2033.
