helpful for making changes and scheduling automated migrations. 5-Click Migration: With CSC Migration Studio for Oracle, a database running in a variety of server environments — including Oracle, Windows, Unix and Linux — can be selected from a simple drop-down menu and migrated to a cloud environment quickly and easily. Because our migration tool knows everything about the source and destination, and because it can recommend the best migration paths, when a default option is selected, it takes just five mouse clicks to go through the full migration process.
Reduced Risk: Leveraging Oracle GoldenGate technology for real-time data integration, CSC is able to perform bidirectional, cross-platform, multiregion database replications. This means that once a database is migrated to a cloud environment, the service can be easily moved around, even back to a previous state if needed, with no loss of data. This reduces risk by providing flexibility and continuity in moving data between old systems and new systems and back.
ServiceNow Integration: The alliance between CSC and ServiceNow, the enterprise cloud company, lets us provide consistent and familiar interfaces during migrations, while tapping into CSCstandardized processes, global metrics and reporting. Leveraging ServiceNow technology, CSC is able to use the lessons learned from thousands of database migrations we have implemented for our customers across the globe to optimize your migrations. Using these global resources gives CSC the advantage of economies of scale and helps improve the stability and repeatability of complex migrations.
KEY FEATURES Automated Discovery: Building a business case for database migrations involves determining what you have in your applications portfolio, who owns the applications, and what interoperability issues you need to address. CSC Migration Studio for Oracle eases this process by providing an automated discovery tool that identifies what databases you have and provides the ability to drill down into the database to determine key functional information, such as what server it is running on, its storage capacity, and how many users are connected to it.
