Database migrations used to involve lots of code rewrites. Things are different now.
Contrary to popular perception, most of the effort required to migrate databases to a new cloud or on-premises database are due to application code rewriting (not the actual data migration).
Rewriting projects typically take years and cost enterprises millions with no guarantee to success. Liberatii™ Gateway eliminates the need to rewrite application code or change SQLs by acting as an abstraction and virtualization layer between the application and the new database.
Therefore, with no coding or SQL change required, database applications can connect to new databases instantly via Liberatii Gateway.
Liberatii Gateway is a software-as-service (SaaS) virtual database. It sits between the enterprise application (3rd party Oracle apps, etc) and the cloud database (Azure SQL, etc).
Once deployed, it starts translating queries, data and messages between the application and the cloud database on-the-fly. Liberatii gateway will continue adapting the enterprise application to the cloud database seamlessly with no measurable latency.
Currently, the solution is available as “Liberatii Gateway for Oracle Apps” on Azure Marketplace and is recognised as a Microsoft preferred solution.
technical features
Don't rewrite SQLs, Translate on-the-fly.
Real-Time SQL Translation
Typical enterprise application migration takes six months to years. Liberatii reduces this migration time to few weeks.
Real-Time Data Conversion
Resultset and messages from Azure SQL database are converted in real-time to an Oracle-compatible format.
No Need for Source Code
You don't need to touch or compile application source code. Liberatii works perfectly with legacy binary apps.
Support for All Syntaxes
Missing or unsupported syntaxes or data types of the source database (packages, functions with side effects, dynamic SQL, etc.) are emulated on the target database.
Minimal Overhead
End users wouldn't require much training as enterprises can preserve business logic by modernising back-end database. The maintenance of Liberatii is also very simple.
Minimum Latency
The effect of latency due to Liberatii is minimal and general app performance depends on the target database performance and the application queries.
