Successful migration from Oracle Hyperion to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure of a global player de electronics industry
Our customer, a world leader in the electronics industry, has entrusted the expertise of SQORUS and its EPM division Smarthys, to successfully complete its Oracle Hyperion to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
The challenge
Moderniser Oracle Hyperion Financial Management
Faced with increasingly critical financial closings, our customer was faced with an increasingly
worrying situation: its financial consolidation system Oracle Hyperion Financial Management (HFM) was becoming unstable, jeopardizing the quality and timeliness of monthly and quarterly closings:
- Operational risk: frequent crashes threatening compliance with regulatory deadlines
- Strategic choice: modernize the existing solution or switch to a completely different SaaS solution
- Continuity constraint: need to maintain financial fences throughout migration
The real challenge was to transform the technical infrastructure while preserving business processes, without disrupting the Group’s financial calendar.
Background & objectives
Paving the way for next-generation Cloud integration
For several years, the company had been using Oracle Hyperion Financial Management version 11.1.2.4, hosted on an aging in-house infrastructure. Monthly closings were becoming increasingly unstable, with frequent crashes, slow navigation and extended consolidation times. What’s more, the version used was no longer covered by Oracle support.
The main objectives of this migration were :
- Migrate to the latest supported version of HFM
- Modernize infrastructure by migrating to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
- Improve stability, performance and safety
- Guarantee continuity of operations without impacting users
The SQORUS solution

1. Complete audit of existing system
- Detailed mapping of technical architecture
- Analysis of configurations and customizations
- Volume and performance evaluation
- Identifying specific risks
2. Target architecture design
- Definition of an optimized architecture on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
- Sizing adapted to performance needs
- Setting up a high-availability strategy
- Design of security and backup mechanisms
3. Step-by-step migration
- Creating a representative test environment
- Technical migration to HFM 11.2 on OCI
- Data transfer, metadata and consolidation rules
- Reconfiguring interfaces with peripheral systems
- In-depth non-regression tests
4. Post-migration support
- Non-regression testing and user acceptance testing on a pre-production environment
- Gradual production start-up with reinforced supervision
- Training for IT and Finance teams
The results
Bhe benefits of modernization of theEPM
The concrete improvements achieved demonstrate the added value of a well-executed migration. Upgrading from Oracle Hyperion to OCI has enabled us to meet and even exceed our objectives:
- No more crashesduring closing periods
- Faster, smoother consolidation
- Significantly more responsive navigationin the HFM interface
- Amore stable, secure and scalable environment
- Significantly reduced maintenance workload for the IT team
Since migrating to OCI and upgrading our HFM, we’ve regained our composure during the closing process. No more crashes, faster consolidations, and smooth navigation at last. It’s a real relief for our Finance and IT teams.
