From Oracle Forms to Java and PostgreSQL, from legacy to modern web and mobile applications

Many customers have some Oracle Forms application left, that need to be supported and maintained. Those applications most often still have interfaces from early 2000. These applications are still part of the systems that customers need to be successful. But gives the feeling of sailing with a sea-anker, this slows you down nowadays. Companies want to move forward embrace new technology and reduce costs. Nibble IT has many years experience of building applications and migrating databases to PostgreSQL. But didn’t have the answer for Forms Applications. To make this possible Nibble started a partnership with SIB Visions and is using their tools to move Oracle Forms Application to Java and beyond. During this presentation we will show you the options of migration an Oracle Forms application to Java, running against Oracle. But we will take it beyond, from there we migrate the database to EDB PostgreSQL Advanced Server. Making your new environment complete OpenSource and ready for the future. With this approach we can legacy application to modern web and mobile applications by partially automated, efficient and affordable migration.
