Key Highlights

  • Optisol supported a leading player in Election technology industry in modernizing their RMS module by migrating Oracle database modules to PostgreSQL using the AI-powered iBEAM O2PIM tool.
  • The project addressed critical challenges such as Oracle licensing costs, user control restrictions and limited flexibility in vendor access
  • Dual database runtime architecture allowed Oracle and PostgreSQL environments to operate in parallel during transition, ensuring continuity and rollback safety
  • The automated migration approach helped accelerate delivery while maintaining high accuracy and preserving business logic integrity

Problem Statement

01

High Licensing Costs: Organization’s clients found Oracle’s licensing model prohibitively expensive for ongoing and scalable operations

02

User Access Limitations: Vendor login constraints and complex access control mechanisms in Oracle hampered operational efficiency

03

Migration Risk: A full shift from Oracle to PostgreSQL posed the risk of downtime and data inconsistencies without a dual run strategy

04

Complex Business Logic: The Oracle database had embedded procedures and packages that required accurate, secure migration and testing

About The Project

This Success story captures how Optisol partnered with a global provider in the election technology space to migrate their RMS (Result Management System) database from Oracle to PostgreSQL. The organization faced high licensing costs, restrictive user policies, and the need for greater flexibility
Using iBEAM O2PIM, Optisol delivered an accelerated low-risk migration by automating schema and logic conversation while enabling real-time dual-database execution. The solution ensured continuity of services, compatibility with Java-based applications and laid a solid foundation for broader modernization initiatives across platforms

FAQs:

What is iBEAM O2PIM used for?

iBEAM O2PIM is OptiSol’s AI-powered tool for automating Oracle-to-PostgreSQL database migration, including schema, logic, and package conversion.

Why was Oracle replaced?

Their clients faced increasing Oracle license costs, limited vendor login capabilities, and a need for a more flexible, open-source database environment.

Was there a risk of data loss during migration?

No. Since the migration excluded production data and only focused on schema and logic, there was no risk to live data.

How was business logic handled in the migration?

Complex Oracle packages were either converted into PostgreSQL procedures or refactored into Spring Boot microservices, preserving core functionalities.
