It is ambiguous...
On the one hand, it may be about migrating data to Oracle. On the other hand, it may be about migrating data from Oracle. It can also be about migrating to and from Oracle. And which meaning is the most correct depends on the context. If we only have 2 words, Oracle Migration, I really don't know which thing is meant.
By the way, before posting my answer, I asked a very good software engineer about what he thinks about it, and he said the same thing - it's ambiguous.
So, context is everything.

A fourth interpretation might be that Oracle itself is migrating
Bird migration takes place seasonally
