Upgrading Smart Instrumentation
The question
Our organization uses Smart Instrumentation to manage our facility.
We have fallen behind in keeping the software current and do not have the resources and expertise to perform upgrades ourselves. How can CooleyCore help?
The solution
We have years of experience helping our clients with safe, comprehensive and cost-efficient upgrades to their software. Our proven methodology is adaptable to our client’s specific needs and our tools allow us to delve deep into the underlying structures of the database to ensure upgrades succeed the first time.
Our approach
Step 1: Perform audit of current database
Identify data anomalies, deficiencies and inconsistencies in the data (i.e. how reliable is the data in the system? is it trustworthy/accurate? Will it require a lot of repair/cleanup? Are there data missing from fields or incorrectly placed wiring?)
Step 2: Understand client computing landscape
Determine the best environment going forward (e.g. Oracle, MS SQL, cloud)
Step 3: Recommend path forward
Taking into account operational requirements, outage windows, etc.
Step 4: Perform test upgrades
Using CooleyCore and/or client non-production environments.
Step 5: Upgrade Production environment
Complete implementation and provide warranty support.

Over years of use, many clients find that their data is not as reliable as they might want. Our audit tools can help identify problems in the underlying tables and connections. There is no sense in upgrading “bad” data to a newer version of “bad” data.
Your data is critical to your operations, and its condition dictates the success of any software upgrade. Over the years, databases accumulate a complex history of modifications and past upgrades. If left unchecked, bad or missing data can cause upgrade bottlenecks and long-term issues like widespread duplicates. At CooleyCore, we leverage decades of experience and proprietary software tools to guarantee your upgrades succeed the first time. We provide comprehensive, focused upgrade services at a fixed cost, protecting both your data and your bottom line.
