<h3><span class="text-accent2-dark"><b>Our approach</b></span></h3> <p>Cognizant has managed CoreLogic’s Tax Ecosystem business unit for over a decade, overseeing both technology and operations. Given this extensive experience and proven track record, it was a natural choice for CoreLogic to entrust Cognizant with leading their cloud migration initiative. Among the scope parameters were the following:</p> <ul> <li>Applications refactoring and re-platforming to Google Anthos KF</li> <li>Migration of a highly complex Oracle database to Google Cloud, handling intricate data environments and leveraging advanced cloud technologies</li> <li>Migration of custom COBOL applications running in Java environments to GCP to significantly enhance performance </li> <li>A 100% repavable applications migration to GCP using infrastructure as code (IAC) </li> <li>Lift-and-shift of windows/.NET-based applications and related infrastructure setup on GCP virtual machines</li> </ul>
<p class="pt-1">Throughout the project, Cognizant delivered exceptional program management support, not only to CoreLogic but also to multiple other vendors involved in the migration. In addition, the Cognizant team managed incremental migration cycles while simultaneously supporting existing releases, which required extensive coordination and meticulous planning.<br> </p>
