L’éditeur Ciuch gagne en flexibilité avec EDB Postgres

Following a successful migration of its tuition benefits and tracking system—allowing them to provide and manage financial aid and veteran tuition assistance—from Oracle to Postgres, Indiana State University knew they would need help maintaining their new database.

As part of an ongoing modernization effort, the FBI planned to migrate key applications—including those for case management and background checks—away from their Oracle infrastructure and into AWS cloud. However, it quickly became clear that Oracle’s licensing fees would make such a migration prohibitively expensive, stalling the plan in its tracks.

Businesses across industries are looking to take full advantage of the cloud with cloud-first strategies and cloud native database technologies. Unfortunately, many commercial database providers limit enterprises’ options, waylaying them with restrictive licenses, ever-growing costs and frustrating boundaries around what solutions they can and cannot integrate.
