Predictable modernization programs through an end-to-end integrated platform

Modernize[IQ] is based on a per-database pricing model, enabling organizations to modernize large Oracle and SQL Server estates without core-based or consumption-driven cost escalation.

The result is a predictable, scalable migration to PostgreSQL with near-zero downtime and built-in rollback protection, giving technology leaders the confidence to execute complex modernization initiatives without operational. 

Challenges with Oracle & SQL Server Modernization

Organizations modernizing from Oracle or SQL Server to PostgreSQL consistently face:

  • High database licensing and support costs – restricting investment in innovation and cloud strategy

  • Slow, manual PostgreSQL modernization assessments – leading to longer delivery timelines and slower time to value

  • Complex PL/SQL and T-SQL codebases – with thousands of procedures and functions, creating uncertainty around scope, risk, and remediation effort

  • Long, high-risk modernization timelines – reducing business case confidence to proceed

  • Offline data migrations suffering extended downtime – introducing operational disruption and business risk

  • No rollback or fallback capability during cutover – increasing operational risk and migration risk 

  • Manual, error-prone schema and code remediation – consuming internal resources, diverting teams from strategic initiatives

  • Unpredictable tooling costs –  driven by cores, instances, or consumption metrics, making cost forecasting difficult 

Modernize[IQ] directly addresses these constraints through automation, GenAI acceleration, live replication, and predictable pricing, enabling enterprises to modernize at scale without losing financial or operational control.

How Modernize[IQ] Helps

Enhancing Tooling & Efficiency 
Key deliverables
Modernization Assessments at Scale
  • GenAI-driven modernization assessments

  • Assess hundreds of databases per day with automated analysis

  • Automated discovery of schema complexity, code patterns, and migration risk

Schema Conversion
  • Automated schema conversion from Oracle and SQL Server to PostgreSQL

  • Target compatibility for:

    • Open-source PostgreSQL

    • Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL

    • Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL

GenAI-Driven Code Modernization
  • Automated conversion of PL/SQL and T-SQL to PostgreSQL (PL/pgSQL)

  • Private GenAI models trained on real-world Oracle-to-PostgreSQL and SQL Server-to-PostgreSQL migrations

  • Hybrid delivery model combining AI acceleration with expert human validation

Outcomes
  • Accelerates Oracle exit planning by replacing weeks of manual discovery with data-driven clarity.

  • Provides early visibility into migration scope, risk, and remediation effort, enabling defensible business cases and executive approval.

  • Reduces manual schema redesign effort and minimizes structural rework late in the project.

  • Improves PostgreSQL performance alignment from day one, avoiding post-migration tuning surprises.

  • Compresses code remediation timelines by up to 50%, reducing dependency on scarce specialist resources.

  • Delivers up to 90% automated conversion accuracy, lowering cost while maintaining governance and control.

  • Improves modernization predictability across large database estates.

Migration Risk-Mitigation
Key Deliverables
Zero-Downtime Data Migration
  • Continuous Change Data Capture (CDC) for live migrations

  • Parallel data movement for multi-terabyte databases

  • Supports phased and parallel run migration strategies

Reverse Replication & Rollback
  • PostgreSQL-to-Oracle / PostgreSQL-to-SQL Server reverse synchronization

  • Instant rollback capability during production cutovers

Built-In Live Data Verification
  • Continuous source-to-target data validation

  • Ensures migration acc

Outcomes
  • Enables near-zero downtime cutovers, reducing operational disruption and protecting revenue-generating systems.

  • Supports phased modernization strategies without forcing high-risk “big bang” migrations.

  • Removes irreversible go-live risk, giving CIOs and program sponsors confidence to execute production cutovers.

  • Protects business continuity with immediate fallback capability if issues arise.

  • Eliminates additional tooling cost while increasing stakeholder trust in migration accuracy.

How It Works

Predictable Per-Database Pricing

Modernize[IQ] is licensed per database, not by cores, instances, data volume, or consumption metrics. This pricing model enables organizations to:

  • Modernize large Oracle and SQL Server estates with clear, upfront cost visibility

  • Avoid per-core or per-instance licensing models that penalize scale

  • Eliminate unpredictable cloud consumption costs during long-running migrations

  • Align modernization spend directly to business outcomes

Per-database pricing makes Modernize[IQ] ideally suited for enterprise modernization programs, migration factories, and phased Oracle exit initiatives.
