Situation before Lift & Shift to OCI

The Neterwala Group is a professionally-run, family-owned business enterprise with a rich history and more than six decades of steadfast growth. The client has a diverse range of manufacturing interests in Metallurgy, Software, Engineering, Geology, Oil & Gas, and Environmental Balance.

The client sought to address the challenges of running an on-premise data center, including:

  • Periodic internal IT capacity restraints
  • Support of audit compliance reviews
  • Operational challenges including security patches and firewall policy maintenance
  • Application of firmware and OS upgrades
  • Moving from a CapEx to OpEx model

We saved 50% on our Infrastructure cost by moving JD Edwards from On-Premises iSeries platform to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. I truly thank AST (formerly 9EDGE) for bringing deep skills to deliver this complex project which was completed on time and under budget. A great implementation partner to work with."
