Open Core Model

AIMLUX.ai PowerGraph:  Assists in complex migration from Oracle to SAP/IBM RISE, the combination of an open-source tool (Graphixa.ai) with a high-intelligence backend (Fusion KGNN and Powergraph) creates a compelling entry strategy for building a user base.

By offering Graphixa.ai as an open-source/free trial tool, you lower the "barrier to trust." Organizations can use it to map their data for free, while the "Value-Add" (the automated cleaning and industry-standard blueprints) resides in the paid Equitus/Aimlux services.

The "Freemium to Enterprise" User Journey

Phase	User Activity (Free/Open Source)	The "Hook" for Paid Services (Fusion/Powergraph)
1. Assessment	User downloads Graphixa.ai to map a small Oracle table to a simple CSV target to test the UI.	Fusion (KGNN) "listens" to the Oracle DB and uncovers hidden relationships the user didn't even know existed.
2. Blueprinting	User manually defines an ontology for "Customer" in Graphixa.	Powergraph provides a pre-configured SAP S/4HANA Clean Core ontology, saving the user months of manual definition.
3. Pilot Migration	User runs a 10,000-row pilot from Oracle to a sandbox using Graphixa's rule-based ETL.	Fusion identifies "Garbage" (duplicates, orphaned records) in the source that the simple rules missed, suggesting a cleaner path.
4. Scale & Rise	User realizes they need a governed, 10-million-row move to IBM RISE.	The full Equitus Fusion suite manages the high-volume orchestration, while Graphixa provides the mandatory audit lineage.

How the Integration Builds the User Base

1. Graphixa.ai as the "Governance Gateway" (The Lead Magnet)

By making the Lineage and Provenance features of Graphixa.ai open-source, you solve a massive pain point for Oracle-to-SAP projects: Auditability.

• The Strategy: A data architect uses the free version to prove to their boss that they can track every record. Once the project scales to "Mission Critical" (IBM RISE), they naturally upgrade to the Equitus service for enterprise support and KGNN-powered automation.

2. Fusion (KGNN) as the "Oracle Expert"

Most Oracle-to-SAP migrations fail because the source data is "spaghetti."

• The Strategy: Graphixa.ai (Free) shows the user that their data is messy. Equitus Fusion (Paid) is marketed as the "Cleaning Engine" that uses KGNN to untangle the Oracle logic so it fits into the Graphixa orchestrator.

3. Powergraph as the "SAP Shortcut"

SAP S/4HANA has a very rigid data model.

• The Strategy: You provide "Powergraph Connectors" for Graphixa.ai. Users can try Graphixa for free, but they can purchase a Powergraph Subscription to get the exact mapping templates for SAP Business Partner or Universal Journal, reducing their time-to-market by 40%.

Marketing the "Intelligent Migration" Stack

To build the user base, your messaging should focus on "Explainable AI Migration":

"Use Graphixa.ai (Open Source) to control your movement, Fusion to understand your past (Oracle), and Powergraph to define your future (SAP on IBM RISE). No more black boxes—just governed, semantic intelligence."

Component	Strategic Role	Specific Function in Oracle → SAP/IBM Rise
Equitus Fusion (KGNN)	Discovery & Correlation	The "Discovery Engine." It maps the hidden relationships in your Oracle database, identifying how "buried" tables relate to high-level business concepts.
Aimlux Powergraph	Knowledge Synthesis	The "Master Blueprint." It provides the pre-built industry ontologies for SAP/IBM RISE, acting as the target "perfect state" for the data.
Graphixa.ai	Operational Orchestration	The "Execution Engine." It takes the intelligence from Fusion and the blueprint from Powergraph to perform the actual, rule-based data movement.

To build a robust user base for an Oracle-to-SAP migration, Graphixa.ai should follow an Open Core model. This provides a free "Operational Utility" that solves immediate pain points (mapping and lineage) while reserving the "Intelligence Layer" (KGNN) and "Industry Blueprints" (Powergraph) for paying customers.

Below is the Community Roadmap that balances open-source accessibility with the Equitus Fusion value-add.

Graphixa.ai Community Roadmap: "Governance First"

Phase 1: The Foundation (Open Source / Free Trial)

Focus: Winning the Data Architect's trust by solving "Spaghetti Mapping."

• Core Semantic Engine: Ability to create a custom Ontology and use it to map Source Fields $\rightarrow$ Target Columns.

• Deterministic Rule-Set: Basic transformation library (e.g., String to Number, Date formatting, Trim logic).

• SQL Generator: Generation of standard SQL INSERT and UPDATE statements for common DBs (Postgres, MySQL).

• Local Lineage: A "Record-Level" view showing the transformation path for a single data point.

• Manual Error Queue: A UI where users can manually fix rows that failed the rule-based check.

Phase 2: The Intelligence Bridge (The "Paywall" Transition)

Focus: Scaling from "One Table" to "Whole Domain" using Equitus Fusion.

 

Feature Category	Open Source (Graphixa)	Enterprise Paywall (Equitus Fusion/KGNN)
Discovery	Manual schema import.	Automated Fusion Crawl: KGNN identifies hidden relationships in Oracle schemas.
Mapping	Drag-and-drop manual mapping.	AI Suggestions: KGNN predicts mappings based on data patterns, not just names.
Clean Core	Build your own SAP Ontology.	Aimlux Powergraph: Pre-built SAP S/4HANA & IBM RISE blueprints.
Transform	Deterministic rules only.	Neural Transformation: KGNN handles complex, multi-table structural shifts.
Execution	Single-threaded loads.	High-Volume Orchestration: Optimized for IBM Power10/RISE bulk loads.

---

Phase 3: The "Rise" Ecosystem (Service-Based Value)

Focus: Ensuring the SAP migration is "Clean Core" compliant.

• Rise-Ready Templates (Paid): Access to the Aimlux Powergraph library, which contains the specific mapping logic for SAP's "Universal Journal" and "Business Partner" models.

• Cross-System Provenance (Paid): Extending lineage beyond the database into the application layer (e.g., proving that an Oracle record is the same one now appearing in an SAP Fiori app).

• KGNN Feedback Loop (Paid): Automatically refining transformation rules based on errors caught during the migration process.

Strategy: How this Builds the User Base

1. Lower the Entry Barrier: An Oracle DBA downloads Graphixa for free to solve a mapping headache. They now have their "Business Meanings" (Ontology) locked into the tool.

2. Highlight the Complexity: As the user tries to map a complex Oracle ERP system, Graphixa identifies that there are 5,000 unmapped columns.

3. Offer the "Easy Button": At this point, the user is offered a Free Trial of Equitus Fusion. The KGNN instantly maps 80% of those columns.

4. The Upsell: To move the final data into IBM RISE, the user requires the audit-grade lineage and SAP blueprints provided by the paid Aimlux Powergraph service.

Would you like me to draft a "Community License" summary that explains how users can contribute to the open-source rule-set while keeping their industry data private?

Would you like me to draft a "Community Roadmap" for Graphixa.ai that outlines which features to keep open-source vs. which to keep behind the Equitus Fusion paywall?
