We know that Oracle Applications Unlimited product customers have unique requirements for their workloads. You need to easily scale during times of peak demand, such as college registration periods or end of month reporting, enhance digital experiences for your internal and external users, improve operational efficiencies, or significantly reduce total cost of ownership. We’re excited to share solutions and strategies with you at Oracle CloudWorld across various learning formats. CloudWorld, a global conference bringing together applications and infrastructure customers, partners, and developers, is coming to Las Vegas from October 17–20, 2022. No matter where you are in your journey to the cloud, you can find education, inspiration, and community to support your goals.

At CloudWorld, you can see how Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) can help you achieve more with your existing Applications Unlimited investments and explore services like application integration that connect any on-premises, software as a service (SaaS), or custom applications, automate end-to-end processes like request to receipt or recruit to onboard, and ultimately accelerate business process innovation.

Looking to explore SaaS solutions? CloudWorld is also the place to learn why Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, built and run on OCI, are trusted by more than 30,000 organizations to improve their customer engagements, increase business agility, and react to change faster.

Let’s dig into the top four ways Applications Unlimited product customers can get the most out of this year’s event, highlighting a few of the many sessions planned.

You can also hear from Albertsons, a $70 billion grocery giant who, after going public in 2020 and seeing a huge burst in sales during the coronavirus pandemic, needed a fast and cost-effective way to scale its HR operations for the company’s nearly 300,000 employees. Today, Albertsons runs its core HR and absence management applications in Oracle HCM Cloud and its PeopleSoft Payroll application on OCI.
