Challenge

A research institute was running mission-critical Oracle systems—including EBS and PeopleSoft—on unsupported Linux and outdated infrastructure. This led to mounting maintenance issues, performance bottlenecks, and inflated licensing costs. The institute needed to modernize both the application and platform layers to reduce risk and improve system resilience. Key challenges included:

  • Aging infrastructure causing degraded performance and hardware failures

  • Unsupported database versions increasing security and compliance risks

  • High licensing and support costs due to inefficiencies

  • Complex multi-environment management with inconsistent configurations

  • Lack of disaster recovery (DR) or high availability (HA) safeguards

Solution

SureStep team members modernized the institute’s Oracle environment through a full-stack upgrade and replatforming initiative. Key actions included:

  • Upgraded Oracle EBS and PeopleSoft databases to 19c for improved performance, security, and supportability

  • Migrated applications to new high-performance DELL servers

  • Transitioned from unsupported Linux to a fully supported OS aligned with Oracle best practices

  • Tuned database parameters to enhance responsiveness and throughput

  • Implemented HA architecture to minimize downtime and boost business continuity

Outcome

The institute now operates a modern, stable, and scalable Oracle environment with:

  • Improved system performance, reliability, and scalability

  • Lower total cost of ownership through optimized infrastructure and licensing

  • Full compliance with Oracle support and industry security standards

  • Streamlined operations and simplified system administration
