iBEAM FormLift: Modernize Oracle Forms to Modern Web Applications

What is iBEAM FormLift?

iBEAM FormLift is an automation tool designed to convert Oracle Forms to modern web applications using technologies like Angular, React, and .NET. This tool helps organizations modernize their legacy systems, improve performance, enhance user experience, and reduce maintenance costs.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Automated Conversion: Automatically converts Oracle Forms to modern web interfaces, reducing manual effort and accelerating the migration process.
• Full-Stack Transformation: Supports migration to Angular or React frontends powered by Node.js, Java, or .NET backends.
• Improved User Experience: Transforms Oracle Forms screens into responsive, browser-based web interfaces with enhanced usability.
• Scalability and Security: Modernized applications are built with REST or GraphQL APIs, ensuring easy integration and extensibility.
• Reduced Maintenance Costs: Migrating to modern technologies reduces the effort required for maintenance, security risks, and system reliability issues associated with aging Oracle Forms versions.
• Integration Ready: Ensures migrated applications are integration-ready with modern APIs.

How does iBEAM FormLift work?

iBEAM FormLift operates through a structured migration framework that ensures a secure, efficient, and disruption-free transition:

1. Assessment: The process begins with a thorough analysis of the Oracle Forms structure, code logic, and dependencies to understand the scope of the migration.
2. Planning: Based on the assessment, a detailed full-stack architecture and migration plan are defined, outlining the execution strategy.
3. Automated Conversion: OptiSol’s accelerators are employed to migrate the UI and logic efficiently, automating much of the conversion process.
4. Validation & Go-Live: The final step involves rigorous testing, tuning, and deployment to ensure a smooth rollout of the modernized application.
