Case Study: Oracle to SQL for Tobacco Production Company

Problem

When the leadership team of a tobacco production company wanted to initiate a re-platforming exercise from Oracle to SQL Server to better fit its evolving development focus with Microsoft technologies (.NET) and databases (SQL Server) and reduce costs from Oracle based technologies, they turned to Solvaria for help.

Solution

Solvaria DBAs understood that the company’s databases were mission critical for maintaining the flow of business. For this reason, Solvaria’s team of senior DBAs worked with the application development team to leverage a custom process to move data between the platforms.

Results

Working with the organization’s team over the course of a year, Solvaria efficiently provided the expertise and helped with a successful migration as well as provided guidance on the needed infrastructure elements. The company continues to use Microsoft technology solutions today and has retired all Oracle usage.
