Unfinished business
Global Atlantic had started its PeopleSoft to Cloud migration journey a while back but those efforts had stalled due to various business challenges. With the second attempt, the priorities were:
Right-sized architecture
Improved, robust security architecture
Accelerated migration plan
Managed Service for care and feed of PeopleSoft on Cloud
Technology
Move from partial to full Cloud deployment with SOC2 Compliance
Global Atlantic needed to refresh its cloud architecture to take advantage of the latest security and performance features available in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Automation was lacking and monitoring and compliance solutions were yet to be deployed. Global Atlantic asked Astute Business Solutions to assess and evaluate its current state Cloud deployment and built a solution that met future-state needs.
Re-implement Cloud Foundation with secure, high-performant architectures
Re-deploy current Dev/Test PeopleSoft workloads on new architecture
Dove-tail Cloud migration with on-premise PUM Update and Tools Upgrade projects
Migrate Production and remaining non-Production workloads to OCI

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
Astute chose to renew and expand Global Atlantic's Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenancy by converting it to a Cloud Managed Service Provider engagement and providing full-service implementation and support for PeopleSoft on OCI.

Astute delivered a 4-month PeopleSoft Lift and Shift to Oracle Cloud service that met Global Atlantic's business needs while allowing them time to complete the on-premise PUM and Tools Upgrade that they had already started. Astute redesigned the OCI architecture to start with a secure cloud foundation. Astute tuned the cloud service parameters to optimize performance.
