Oracle Content Management Cloud Services will reach their end of life on December 31, 2025. As this date approaches, businesses must prepare to transition to a new, sustainable platform to ensure continuity, security, and compliance.
Attico International provides Oracle CMS to Drupal migration service to help your business move to a more future-proof platform seamlessly.
Oracle Content Management System has been serving businesses worldwide since 2017, offering robust capabilities for content management and digital experience. However, Oracle’s recent announcement of the end of life for its CMS placed many businesses in a precarious situation. As Oracle CMS reaches its last date of service, businesses have to decide which solution to migrate to — SaaS or on-premises.
SaaS CMS (e.g. Joomla)
License is needed. Users are required to pay monthly license fees that range in price based on the features and services included.
On-premises open-source CMS (e.g. Drupal)
No license fees. Freely available for anyone to download, use, and modify without any associated licensing costs.
Lack of customization. Restricted and limited customization capabilities, heavily dependent on the vendor’s roadmap and willingness to implement new features or integrations.
Fully customizable. Open source software provides complete access to its source code, offering unparalleled customization capabilities.
Lack of control over security. Data is stored and processed by the SaaS provider within its cloud infrastructure, which poses security risks.
More control over security. Data is deployed on an owned infrastructure and is never shared with the SaaS provider to ensure total control over data ownership and security.
Vendor lock-in. You become overly dependent on a particular service provider, making it difficult to switch to another vendor without substantial costs, effort, or inconvenience.
More internal control. You are not tied to a single vendor, which protects your businesses from unforeseen changes, such as sudden pricing increases, feature deprecations, or service discontinuations. This offers greater internal control.
Here are some reasons why we recommend migrating to Drupal:
Drupal has been in the market since 2001 and there is no such thing as the ‘end-of-life’, because it’s constantly supported by the community.
There are 51,000+ free and paid modules available to extend site functionality. You can use modules contributed by others or create your own.
Drupal is well documented, with user guide, developer docs, and API references having 18K+ pages.
With over 2,460 Drupal development companies, there is no lack of experts.
Drupal has a large and active global community of over 1M members, who build Drupal, provide support, and create documentation.
You can choose one of the 3,000+ themes to style your website or create your own.
Strong coding standards and a dedicated security team ensure your site remains protected.
Drupal comes with a variety of out-of-the-box features, including multisite, translation, and SEO capabilities.
Depending on your final expectations and business goals, our team can suggest either of the two hosting approaches and configurations; both will enable high performance of your Drupal sites with no compromise on flexibility and security.
Fully managed
While the hosting provider handles all aspects of server management, infrastructure, and maintenance, you focus on your core activities without worrying about anything.
Self-hosted
Setting up and managing our own servers using dedicated resources on cloud services such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure. This gives us greater control over the server environment, providing you with the flexibility to make any configuration adjustments.
