The Challange
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
oAppsNET teamed up with CACI to bring about a substantial change to the technical and functional foundation of the EBS applications.
CACI was operating on Oracle EBS R12.1.2 and database 11.2.0.4 on Red Hat Linux on Prem servers. CACI and oAppNET implemented a two-phase approach to achieve their goal of upgrading to the latest certified database and application versions and then migrating to the AWS cloud.
Phase 1 included upgrading the database from 11.2.0.4 to 12.1.0.2, using interoperability notes, and then upgrading the applications from 12.1.3 to 12.2.9.
Phase 2 included the migration of the on-prem servers to the AWS cloud. The objective was the desire to have online patching, cloning, CPUs, and 12.2.9 functional enhancements, eventually moving to the cloud.

The Solution
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
Browser and Forms Security
CACI wanted the ability to use any desired browser and was currently required to use a single browser. The new technology could eliminate that restriction. No java code signing was in place.

Oracle Security Requirement
CACI practice was to apply Oracle CPUs to fit the user base scheduling needs and therefore CPUs were not being applied on a regular basis. The upgrade would bring the applications up to the latest available CPU level at the time on initial analysis.

Disaster Recovery Solution
The DR solution for CACI was not built for up to the minute recovery, was seldom tested and the location of the DR files was not maintained in a separate location. With the eventual migration to AWS, the use of S3 buckets, AWS, and Oracle tools, the DR solution was more robust and regularly verified in audits.

The Oracle Difference
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
CACI now has certified technology for both the database and applications. Maintenance patching is easier with production-up online patching. With the implementation of Java Web Start (JWS), CACI can use any desired browser from the Oracle EBS certified browser list. The DR solution is regularly tested and verified. Knowledge transfer includes step-by-step documentation.
