Migrating Stonewater's assets to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
Discover how DSP supported Stonewater with an Oracle EBS Cloud Deployment, resulting in a significantly reduced TCO.
Oracle EBS Cloud Deployment
OCI Managed Services
Architecture & Implementation
Overview
Stonewater was newly formed in 2015, from three other large Housing Associations. However, the business quickly found that having three sets of applications, as well as three sets of EBS infrastructure, was costly and difficult to manage. The company chose DSP to consolidate and migrate their assets to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to overcome these issues.

"With an ageing and increasingly expensive on-premise hardware model it was imperative that our business moved to the cloud to realise the benefits of scalability, the right level of performance and commercial flexibility."

-
The EBS and Northgate applications suites were expensive to run and time intensive
-
The organisation had 3 sets of hosting agreements to manage
-
The existing platforms were very old and also used Oracle Database 10g and Sparc / Unix technologies
-
The creation of Stonewater led to an overly complicated environment for the organisation, with 3 sets of hosting management and applications suites
These needed to be simplified without losing the existing data from any of the now-merged Housing Associations, and the new post-merger system had to be able to handle a larger influx of data than the previous individual ones.
-
DSP helped Stonewater test and migrate the Database and Webtier to 12c and Linux
-
The solution was then consolidated and moved to OCI
-
Architecture, implementation, migration and ongoing Managed Services provided by DSP
DSP's architects designed and implemented the solution, migrating the consolidated assets to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
