- Where applicable/compatible, upgrade to latest version of Oracle database software.
- Eliminate security and financial risks by decommissioning out-of-support Solaris infrastructure following successful migrations.
- The applications in scope will remain ‘as is,’ there will be no new development work completed. The migration off of Solaris operating system servers only impacts the operating system and database.
