A “Lift-and-Shift” Playbook for PeopleSoft to Oracle Cloud: A Process-Centric Approach Focusing on Application Modules and Process Transition
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper addresses the migration of PeopleSoft application modules to Oracle Cloud Software as a Service (SaaS) using a “Lift-and-Shift” approach. While infrastructure migration is well-documented, this research focuses on the application-centric aspects, providing a detailed playbook for organizations. The paper outlines a structured methodology encompassing Boot Camp sessions on Oracle Cloud offerings, organization requirement reviews to determine the fit, fit-gap analysis on the business requirements, review of key gaps when adopting Oracle Cloud, implementation best practices, rigorous testing strategies, and culminating in user training. The proposed methodology streamlines the migration process, leading to a 30% increase in project efficiency and an estimated 25% saving on infrastructure management. It emphasizes minimizing disruption to business operations and maximizing the benefits of cloud adoption, such as scalability and cost-efficiency [3][4][11]. The research draws upon existing literature, case studies [5], and industry best practices to present a practical guide for successful PeopleSoft application migration to Oracle Cloud, and its utility is conceptually validated through a simulated case study that illustrates its application.
