NACG Cloud Migration and Infrastructure Transformation Case Study

This case study details the collaboration between North American Construction Group (NACG) and Syntax to migrate NACG's JD Edwards (JDE) application and infrastructure to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The objective was to modernize NACG's legacy JDE platform, which was hosted on IBM i Power Systems, to a more scalable and secure cloud environment. The migration aimed to eliminate reliance on a diminishing skill set, reduce operational costs, and enhance system interoperability. Syntax, as an Oracle Strategic Managed Service Provider, orchestrated the transition, ensuring a seamless migration process. The case study outlines the challenges faced, including data integrity issues and the need for careful planning and execution. It also highlights the benefits of the new OCI platform, including improved recovery time objectives and enhanced security measures. Syntax continues to support NACG's growth by providing ongoing architecture advisory services and managing the infrastructure to ensure optimal performance and availability.
