A safer way to validate reporting against your IFS sandbox
This pilot is designed for serious IFS customers who want to test interactive reporting in a real environment without pretending the product is already a public self-serve SaaS. The pilot is customer-hosted, guided, and focused on one or two practical reporting use cases.
If your team already has access to an IFS sandbox and Oracle-backed reporting data, this gives you a practical path to validate the product where the real network, schema visibility, and reporting constraints already exist.
Best-fit pilot scenarios
What the sandbox pilot includes
Customer-hosted deployment bundle
A deployment-ready package with environment templates, startup scripts, install guidance, and pilot validation documentation.
Oracle connection validation
A guided path to confirm whether the backend can reach your Oracle-backed IFS sandbox and browse the right schemas and objects.
First reporting use case setup
Support for identifying and validating the first report that proves operational value, not just a technical connection test.
What you need to start a pilot
A host environment
A customer-controlled machine or server that can run the application and has the best chance of reaching the Oracle-backed IFS sandbox.
Oracle connection details
Host, port, service name or connect string, reporting username, password, and any VPN, wallet, or private-routing requirements.
A first use case
A practical target such as order backlog, production visibility, inventory review, or another reporting pain that matters after go-live.
A serious evaluation mindset
This is best for teams that want a real guided pilot, not a generic anonymous software download with no environment context.
How the pilot works
Pilot fit check
We confirm sandbox availability, Oracle reachability, the likely host environment, and the first use case worth testing.
Deploy the bundle
The customer-hosted deployment bundle is installed in your environment, configured, and prepared for Oracle validation.
Validate reporting flow
Confirm schema access, object discovery, preview queries, saved report flow, and export behavior against the real sandbox environment.
Decide next step
Use the pilot results to decide whether to expand into a broader reporting rollout, refine the product fit, or stop without overcommitting.
