Our Offerings
Third Party Apps to OCI
Migrate third-party apps to Oracle Cloud with no or minimal rearchitecture or reintegration. The OCI’s unparalleled capabilities deliver higher performance at lower cost. OCI has all the core infrastructure and Platform-as-a-service (IaaS/PaaS) options to meet most of the cloud-native development needs at optimal secure standards. The platform extends its support for open-source technologies like Java, Kubernetes, and MySQL, allowing customers to migrate workloads faster than ever at no additional costs.
Advantages of Choosing OCI:- Low cloud pricing across all regions and services
- Boost reliability and resilience
- Extend and modernize apps
Apps with Oracle DB to OCI
Simpler migration choices for all the on-premises applications is what Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers being uncompromised on their features. From back-office applications (EBS, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Siebel, and Hyperion) to industry-specific solutions, multiply the value through OCI migration. OCI leverages these apps by unlocking immediate business benefits. All the apps running on databases when migrated to OCI, the enterprises can:
Lower Total Cost of Ownership than on-premises as it eliminates the recurring hardware and software maintenance costs
- Improve performance than DB Apps, adapting to the dynamics of cloud environments
- Create a pathway to modernize most of the business processes
- Simplify the complete application ecosystem with native OCI services
Oracle Apps to OCI
The flexibility to integrate and derivation of maximum business value through running Oracle apps on cloud infrastructure is huge. When all the Oracle Apps – Supply Chain Management, EBS, Cloud Financials, and EPM operate on OCI, the licensing costs, maintenance issues, and security threats decline exponentially. OCI native apps are fully scalable and meet most of the business requirements, eliminating the need for multi-node management.Analytics

Oracle Cloud and Azure Cloud Interconnect
eAppSys have expertise in implementing Oracle Cloud and Microsoft Azure Cloud Interconnect. Using this cross-cloud connectivity, customers can partition a multitier application to run the database tier on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and the application and other tiers on Microsoft Azure. The experience is like running the entire solution stack in a single cloud.
The following Oracle key applications can run in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Azure cross-cloud configuration:
- E-Business Suite
- JD Edwards EnterpriseOne
- PeopleSoft
- Oracle Retail applications
- Oracle Hyperion Financial Management
Connecting Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure through network and identity interoperability makes ‘Move-and-Improve’ migrations seamless. OCI, AZURE Interconnect delivers direct, fast, and highly reliable network connectivity between two clouds, while continuing to provide first-class customer service and support that enterprises have come to expect from the two companies, in addition to providing interoperability for customers running Oracle software on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft software on Azure.
It enables new and innovative scenarios like running Oracle E-Business Suite or Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Azure against an Oracle Autonomous Database running on Exadata infrastructure in the Oracle Cloud.
Use cases for multi-cloud deployments
- Applications run in separate clouds with consistent controls and data sharing: In this approach, customers can deploy applications fully in one cloud or the other, and will benefit from common identity management, single sign-on, and the ability to share data among clouds for analytics and other secondary processes.
- Applications span clouds, typically with the database layer in one cloud and the app and web tiers in another: Utilizing a low-latency connection between the clouds lets customers choose preferred components for each application, allowing a single consistent application with separate parts running in either cloud optimized for each technology stack.
Advantage using the Interconnect
- A secure intercloud connection that bypasses the public internet.
- High availability and reliability through redundant 10-Gbps physical connections.
- Predictable cross-cloud network performance.
- One time setup without the need for any intermediate network provider.
Use Case of Oracle Cloud and Azure Cloud Interconnect
Organizations can establish an enterprise data lake house or data warehouse for storing live and archived data in one centralized location.
This approach simplifies the process of creating a centralized data store that serves as a comprehensive solution for all data analytics needs.
By leveraging a multi-cloud data analytics solution, organizations can efficiently conduct analytics using a central data lake house or data warehouse integrated with various data sources, including Fusion SaaS, flat files, on-premise and cloud databases, Salesforce, and e-commerce websites.
The ultimate objective is to create a centralized repository of data that has been extracted and analysed by business units to enhance end-to-end business visibility and provide data-driven insights. Benefits include:
- Unified data analytics pipeline
Streamline access to data from various cloud and on-premises sources, such as databases and object stores.
- Ease of integration
Seamless integration of data across diverse systems, formats, APIs, applications, and devices to ensure secure collaboration and compliance with security protocols without the need for manual coding.
- High performance analytics
Efficient data querying leading to faster decisions and improved customer service.
- Cost, security, and availability
Minimize CapEx and OpEx while achieving optimal cost-effectiveness, performance, security, and availability.
Architecture
This reference architecture illustrates an enterprise multi-cloud data pipeline that collects and formats data from various sources, transferring it to the enterprise data lake or data warehouse. It includes batch integration, data integration, and real-time integration scenarios.
Oracle Interconnect for Microsoft Azure links Azure ExpressRoute and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect to connect two separate cloud networks efficiently.
Azure’s Virtual Network (VNet) traffic routes through a private interconnection to OCI’s virtual cloud network (VCN).
The following diagram illustrates this reference architecture.

Control File Multiplexing
To protect database in case of a disk failure and reduce the risk of control f ile loss due to corruption or accidental removal, it is recommended to have control file multiplexing.
TDE (Transparent Data Encryption
TDE is a feature in Oracle Database that provides encryption at the storage level, ensuring that data files, tablespaces, and backups are encrypted to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information.
Unified Audit Trail
Unified audit trail can be enabled to capture and consolidate all logging and auditing information into a single source. It can be enabled for all users or for specific users and creates an audit record in case of a defined event failure.
