Install, configure and integrate Oracle SOA Suite 12 in our environment. Assessment of migration effort will also be carried out to input into planning process for business areas utilising the SOA service.
Support for SOA Suite 11g ends in December 2018. There are a number of current services utilising the SOA technology and this is expected to grow in future years. We need to ensure that we are on a support platform given the reliance of this technology to our successful deliver of services.
By upgrading we will ensure:
We are in a fully supported position moving forward for our SOA technology
We will be able to ensure security issues are in a position to be addressed with the vendor
We are able to utilise new features that enable us to deliver a more reliable, scalable and peformant service.
With the timescales to transition to the new version mentioned above, we need to have the core facility in place to allow the many business areas to plan and execute their migration process before support ends for SOA 11g product.
