What do you think about migrating Oracle Forms to ADF while still working with them?

Migration projects always involve a lot of hard work and uncertainty. This may lead to a considerable frustration for managers, staff and users. 

There is a solution now. The developers can now concentrate directly on migration and creation of new ADF forms as there will be no need to invest in development of application framework and infrastructure for the new ADF forms. Additionally, the old Oracle Forms and Reports can be integrated into a new ADF application immediately thus eliminating the waiting time for the completion of the whole process. The users can gather feedback on the newly developed functionality by simultaneously running Oracle Forms and ADF forms. Moreover, one can migrate form by form and gradually replace old with new ones avoiding the Big Bang approach that may take more than a year. And if the end users have problems or need time to get familiar with the new ADF form, they can always go back and open the old Oracle Form avoiding the frustration.

Usually the migration projects include modernization of 100 to 1000 forms and many reports, which might be quite expensive. FormADF App (http://formadfapp.com/) reduces the costs by saving money on consultants for creation of ADF Application Framework. Also the user doesn’t need to rewrite the existing reports. Likewise, company will fit into the budget by breaking-up the migration project in several stages. Packages of Oracle Forms can be migrated into ADF while keeping the existing Forms at place. This way there will be a fully functional application with a mix of ADF and Forms screens.

Finally, the users will avoid the hurdles and the bad feelings when they see an application that looks completely different and foreign to their enterprise. They will have a fully customizable and adaptive design that will look and feel like it has been developed in-house.
