Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a foundational element of PITSS’ strategy, enabling innovation, scalability, and global collaboration. By leveraging OCI, PITSS modernizes not only its own operations but also delivers future-ready solutions for its clients.
Cloud technologies have really taken over the way companies and organizations do business in the past decade. In an increasingly global market, companies have increased the reliance on using the cloud to help conduct business on a more global scale. Cloud infrastructure platforms like Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provide such environments to help store companies’ databases and servers securely in the web without needing an on premise server and network closet helping to reduce the costs of running in-house servers.
Over the past several years, PITSS has fully utilized the use of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for everyday work. Since its founding, PITSS has worked with Oracle technologies to help customers upgrade their Oracle Forms applications to the latest releases as well as migrate them to more modern Oracle technologies like Oracle APEX. PITSS has chosen OCI as its preferred cloud platform as it is best suited for running Oracle Databases, Oracle Forms, and APEX applications in the cloud within reasonable costs.
PITSS trust on OCI for Oracle Forms to APEX projects
PITSS has been working on several customer migration and modernization projects using OCI as well as completed Oracle Forms to APEX migration projects using it. With such modernization projects, PITSS has set up Oracle Databases as well as compute instances inside OCI as a means to store the data necessary for these projects. With consultants connecting from around the world in Europe as well as North America and Asia, having all projects run in the cloud allows PITSS to work on projects in a global manner. OCI provides ways to secure customer data securely by protecting data using private subnets and requiring private keys to access such data. With running the database and server instances in the cloud, it has reduced the cost for PITSS to purchase additional hardware to maintain such projects. Having OCI as PITSS’ main platform for customer projects, it has enabled its customers to run cloud-ready-applications such as APEX in their environments.
PITSS benefits from OCI for the PITSS.CON development
In addition to customer projects, PITSS has also utilized the use of OCI for its in-house development. PITSS continuously works to add new features to its product PITSS.CON along with modernization programs like Forms 2 APEX Modeler, Reports Modeler, and ProFind. PITSS has moved all of its development into the cloud to allow developers to work on the product from around the world. Having the development take place in OCI ensures that the development environments are always available without having to worry about network or electrical issues which possibly could occur at a physical office location. OCI also ensures security by protecting data from potential cyberattacks.
OCI supports AI and PITSS around the globe
In fact, the PITSS branch in the US in Troy, Michigan has even moved all of its operations into the cloud eliminating the need to host servers onsite. When Oracle releases new versions of Oracle Forms & Reports as well as APEX, PITSS uses OCI to create compute instances to test out the new versions as well as perform test installations of PITSS.CON to ensure that it is ready to achieve the customer’s desires for upgrading and modernizing their applications. Having these environments in the cloud allows for the rest of PITSS to be able to connect into the cloud instances to perform these tests as efficiently as possible.
Cloud platforms like OCI have enabled PITSS to conduct business and its projects on a more global scale. With the increasing reliance on cloud technologies as well as the increasing use of AI in everyday work, OCI provides such a platform for PITSS to utilize the latest technologies out there and begin using AI for its work with modernization projects. PITSS continues to adapt to the latest technological trends to find better ways to help out potential customers achieve their migration and modernization needs and desires.
