Solution

Upgrading EnterpriseOne 9.0 to EnterpriseOne 9.2
Upgrading to the latest version of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has delivered significant functional enhancements.

Deploying JD Edwards on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
DX selected Redfaire’s Cloud 9 service, in preference to an on-premises deployment. Cloud 9 delivers a fully managed hosted solution on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
JD Edwards on OCI delivers:

  • Performance excellence with on-demand, elastic infrastructure.
  • Robust security with end-to-end data encryption and protection.
  • Reduced IT maintenance costs with a JD Edwards solution delivered to an agreed SLA.
  • Disaster Recovery.


As part of the migration, DX also moved from SQL to Oracle Databases, leading to substantial performance improvements.

 

 
Optimizing ERP Data
Redfaire used their data optimization tool Datawaire to significantly reduce the quantity of data held in the production environment. Reducing the data load prior to the upgrade meant that the transition to the new system was completed in one weekend. End-users signed on to the new system on Monday morning having signed off the old system as usual on Friday evening.
