Legacy Oracle to AWS Cloud Migration Made Easy

When attempting to carry out an AWS cloud migration, dealing with the aspects of data security and compliance sends shivers up the top management's spines as this process raises many major roadblocks and questions. Migration to the cloud necessitates a certain level of sophistication that urges one to ponder what information should be stored on the cloud and how to best handle data security. These concerns persuade companies to store their data on local servers. Before planning an AWS transfer, it is critical to choose the right cloud consulting partner; one that can provide all of the necessary capabilities, minimise downtime, and provide quick access. With a customer-centric approach, a company named Apps Associates has been able to successfully assist organizations with the migration and management of their Oracle workloads to the AWS cloud. The company helps customers with licensing, security, cost management, architecture, and governance of the cloud throughout the transition process.

Apps Associates consists of a training staff that understands the entire spectrum of complexities involved in designing, moving, integrating, and maintaining AWS cloud technology stacks. It collaborates closely with customers to maximize investment and increase usage of the cloud, allowing a client to focus on driving their company’s growth. Migrating Oracle applications to AWS is Apps Associates' bread and butter, with over 350 Oracle migrations to the public cloud under its belt.

Since 2002, the company has been an Oracle partner, and it was one of the first to begin moving these mission-critical programs to the AWS public cloud. Whether a customer is working on the Oracle E-Business Suite or other corporate programs such as Hyperion and Oracle Business Intelligence, Apps Associates can assist them in reducing unwanted cloud expenses and increasing productivity.

As an AWS Premier Consulting Partner and AWS Partner Network member (APN), Apps Associate has gained deep technical expertise, procedures, and tools to help a client plan, execute, and move to AWS based on its eight years of experience managing complex workloads on the cloud. Throughout the conversion and post-migration process, the company's teams provide professional AWS technical advice to help clients. Apps Associates provides customized assistance and continuous program management at all phases of the AWS cloud adoption process, owing to the enhanced training and varied certifications from AWS. As an AWS Premier Partner, Apps Associates was the first in the APN to acquire Oracle competency credentials, making it a unique specialist in Oracle-to-AWS conversion. The company manages the whole AWS infrastructure, which results in more affordability, increased agility, and minimal business disruption or downtime. Managed services clients have access to the company's unique suite of diagnostics tools for improved control of key functional business areas including operation, cost management, compliance, and more thanks to the introduction of Apps Pack. IT teams procure real-time reporting, diagnostics, and business data in one location, including AWS cost management, real-time ticketing, and monitoring AWS instances through integrations with AWS and other support tool APIs.

With its cloud technology expertise, App Associates has made its mark by aiding Pearson plc, a British multinational publications and education center with over 22,500 employees operating in 70 countries, which now have benefitted from the creative migration solutions. Pearson required a cloud provider with expertise hosting and managing corporate workloads, with more than 400 servers managing 30,600 named users, a mean concurrent load of 5,000 staff, and a vast quantity of data. Pearson's decision makers followed AWS' advice and collaborated with Apps Associates. The cloud consultancy's migration track record with AWS, along with its experience providing managed services cloud support, helped Pearson plc transition efficiently and with minimal downtime. Apps Associates is an enterprise application services leader with a customer-first focus. The company has established its mark in the market with two decades of expertise in the sector and by overcoming difficulties in design and architecture, notably in the reporting arena, where managed services help in scaling up properly to answer many of a client's issues.
