19c End of Extended Support
Premier Support ends in late 2029
After that, patches cost extra, and only until late 2032. A database migration is planned in years, not weeks.
Years without regular patches
Extended Support ended in 2020 (11g) and 2022 (12c). If you still run on them, you have an open security risk.
Your license bill has changed
Since Broadcom took over, it's subscriptions in bundles only. Many companies pay several times more at renewal.
Your board will ask you six questions.
We hear them in almost every boardroom before a migration. Be honest about how you'd answer today.
What does each answer mean?
- With data
- You can show a number that comes from your systems or an invoice.
- “Per the invoice: $42,000 a month.”
- Estimate
- You have a number, but it comes from gut feel, an old spreadsheet or a past project.
- “Around 40K, I think.”
- No idea
- If someone asked you today, you would have no answer.
- “I’d have to ask around.”
- Scope
What can move to the cloud, and what can't?
- Time
How long until we have a full inventory?
- Risk
How much technical debt is holding us back?
- Spend
What are we spending today, across every account?
- Visibility
What runs in each data center we inherited?
- Business case
How much do we save, and when?

Three pieces: one for whoever signs, one for Finance, one for your tech team.

Automated discovery
Capture, analyze, assess.
One goal: a final recommendation backed by data from your own environment.
Capture
- Hardware and software
- Links between components
- Network
- Databases
Analyze
- How your apps connect
- Service dependencies
- End of support across your software
- Compliance dashboards
Assess
- Which workloads are cloud-ready
- Migration order and strategy
- Service compatibility
- Total cost and risk vs. benefit
You choose how much proof you need.
Quick answers the money question in days. Deep adds the dependency map that makes the plan executable.
Quick assessment
Business decisionDeep assessment
Executable planApplies to projects targeting Oracle Cloud (OCI) that Oracle approves case by case. The alignment call is always free.
What no assessment replaces
The judgment of each application owner. That's why discovery is the first phase of a migration, not the whole thing. Our team works through that validation with you.
What your company stops guessing.
Where the value of the assessment lands.
Cost modeled resource by resource and compared across pricing.
No manual inventory.
Tech debt, end of support and dependencies measured before anything moves.
No maintenance windows, no changes in production.
- A migration plan built on a real inventory
- Total cost calculated from your own data
- Target platforms compared on the same assumptions
- Cost tuned to the commitment you want
- Workloads and dependencies found automatically
- A business case that holds up in the boardroom
Three steps. Weeks, not months.
Built to respect your team's time from the very first call.

Automated discovery
Days 2–5We collect the technical and financial inventory with read-only access.

Delivery and decision
Wrap-upWe present the report to your board, with a clear recommendation.
What the assessment touches, and what it doesn't
No personal data
We only collect technical data: servers, usage, software versions and connections. Nothing from inside your databases or files.
Read-only
We install nothing and change no settings.
Scope in writing
Access and scope are documented and signed off before we start.
What CIOs and CFOs ask before we start.
For the quick assessment, only read-only credentials on the cloud and virtualization accounts you approve. We install nothing, change no settings, and process the data in the environment we agree on. We only collect technical data, never personal data. The access scope is written down and signed off before we start, so your security and privacy teams can review it.
30 minutes from your leadership team for alignment, plus one technical person to grant read-only access. We handle the rest.
The alignment call is always free. The assessment itself is free for eligible projects: those targeting Oracle Cloud (OCI) that Oracle approves case by case. For everything else, we agree on scope and price before we start.
Yes, that's the best time. We compare target platforms on the same assumptions, so you choose on numbers, not on vendor pitches.
The call is yours. If you move ahead, the inventory and dependency map become the backbone of the plan, and we can help you execute it.
Find the most cost-effective platform and pricing before you commit.
