Problem Statement

01

End-of-Support for Oracle Reports 12c: The client’s existing reporting system was based on Oracle Reports 12c, which was set to be deprecated, posing operational risks due to lack of updates and support.

02

High Licensing and Maintenance Costs: The Oracle Reports environment involved expensive licensing fees and maintenance costs, creating a financial burden for the client.

03

Complexity in Maintenance: The legacy Oracle Reports system had redundant and outdated dependencies that were difficult to maintain.

04

Limited Flexibility and Customization: Oracle Reports had limited customization options and was tightly integrated into Oracle’s ecosystem, making it difficult to scale or adapt to new business needs.

05

Special Character Handling: A critical issue during the migration was the accurate handling of special characters in reports. The existing system lacked proper encoding support for multi-language and special characters, requiring additional handling during migration.

Solution Overview

01

Automated Report Conversion: OptiSol’s Jasper Conversion Tool (JCT) analyzed Oracle Reports (.rdf files) and automated the migration, including transforming data models, queries, and layouts.

02

Special Character Handling: Customized encoding ensured accurate representation of special characters and multi-language support during the migration process.

03

Business Logic Mapping: JCT cleaned up redundant code and mapped Oracle’s proprietary logic to Java-based equivalents, ensuring smooth functional transition.

04

Custom Reporting: Jasper Reports was tailored to meet the client’s specific business logic and branding requirements, enabling dynamic charts and complex data models.

05

Seamless Integration: Jasper Reports was integrated into the client's broader IT ecosystem, including ERP systems and cloud databases, ensuring smooth data flow and operational continuity.

06

Performance Tuning: Post-migration performance optimizations were implemented, improving query processing speeds and ensuring the system’s scalability.
