Can you patch and monitor your legacy Oracle database to stay ahead of security threats?

Older versions of databases often contain known vulnerabilities that can be exploited by malicious actors. This constant vigilance can be a significant drain on your resources.

How can this affect you?

Increased Risk: The company’s reliance on a legacy database exposes it to significant risks, such as data breaches, operational disruptions, and regulatory non-compliance.

Competitive Disadvantage: Outdated technology can put a company at a competitive disadvantage. Customers may be more likely to choose competitors with more modern and reliable systems.

Increased Costs: The high maintenance costs associated with the legacy database can eat into the company’s profits and limit its ability to invest in growth and innovation.

Regulatory Compliance Issues: Many industries have strict data privacy and security regulations. Failure to maintain a secure and compliant database can result in hefty fines and legal penalties.

How Can ONQU Help?
By managing, moving or converting the database using our expertise, knowledge and automated tooling.

To mitigate these risks, ONQU and the business must carefully evaluate its options and develop a plan to address the high maintenance costs associated with the legacy Oracle databases.

This may involve upgrading to a newer version, perhaps migrating to the cloud, converting to a different database platform, or implementing a comprehensive support solution with ONQU. This would allow for better performance redundancy and disaster recovery measures to reduce the risk of system failures and improve the business experience.

What is the Business Outcome?
The business outcome would ensure a secure environment running at a performant level, that has been stabilised by an upgrade, migration, conversion or a more comprehensive support strategy to reduce the risks to the business from their legacy estate.
