Oracle-Managed OCI Migration for Classic UK Government Environments

One of Oracle's latest advancements, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is the foundation of Oracle's second-generation cloud. OCI, a purpose-built, best-in-class platform for running enterprise applications, is engineered from the ground up to run mission-critical databases, workloads, and applications while providing end-to-end security. Oracle's data centers around the globe are standardizing on the new OCI architecture which will deliver even greater performance and reliability. There are a lot of features that are available only in OCI. See Features Available only in OCI EPM Cloud Environments in Getting Started with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for Administrators.

Oracle has already sent, in the beginning of April 2024, notifications about the upcoming migration. Please follow the instructions in the notification. Your OCI environments will be available in May 2024. When you receive the OCI environments, complete the optional activities documented at Oracle-Managed Migration before July 2024. 

In July 2024, while applying the monthly update 24.07 during the daily maintenance window, Oracle will automatically clone your OCI environments from Classic environments, change the DNS configuration so that the existing Classic service URLs are routed to the OCI environments, and terminate Classic environments. Cloning of test environments will be done on the first Friday of July 2024. Cloning of production environments will take place on the third Friday of July 2024.

Business Benefit: OCI provides you a purpose-built, best-in-class platform that is engineered from the ground up to run mission-critical databases, workloads, and business processes while providing end-to-end security. This new architecture delivers greater performance and reliability, and a number of features that are not available in Classic EPM Cloud.
