Today’s enterprise isn’t betting on a single cloud but building hybrid and multi-cloud strategies to stay agile, resilient, and competitive. But the path isn’t always clear. Every organization faces tough questions:
- How do we move fast, without breaking what works?
- How do we standardize migration, compliance, cost, and operations across on-prem, OCI, Azure, AWS, and GCP?
- Who manages the complexity when teams, workloads, and data span geographies and clouds?
Enter Oracle Customer Success Services (CSS) CollabAI: A proven, modular SaaS platform that doesn’t just automate migration, but reimagines your entire cloud journey, from first discovery to ongoing optimization. CollabAI bridges technology, teams, and business vision to unlock cloud value at every step.
Imagine if your entire cloud migration process such as discovery, planning, provisioning, migration, and day-to-day operations, could be condensed into a seamless, intelligent platform. No more juggling endless spreadsheets, manual resource matching, or worrying about missing a crucial integration point. That’s the transformative promise of Oracle’s CSS CollabAI platform, now proven at scale for some of the world’s largest enterprises.
What Is CollabAI and Why Do Enterprises Use It?
CollabAI is more than a tool. It’s an AI-driven, centrally deployed platform that delivers automation, governance, and real collaboration for Oracle teams, partners, and clients—even in the world’s largest, most complex environments.
Key features include:
- Automated discovery, assessment, and migration—blueprint-driven for consistency and quality.
- Unified dashboards and reporting for assets, costs, usage, and compliance across all clouds and on-prem.
- Role-based access and shared responsibility, enabling secure collaboration between Oracle, partners, and customer teams.
- Integration with existing IT Service Management (ITSM) and cloud-native systems, delivering real “day two” value through seamless incident, notification, and post-migration operations.
- Configurable security and residency, supporting strict governance and customer-owned deployment models.
Seeing the Customer’s World, End-to-End
Successful migration starts by mapping what’s actually running in your environment—databases, applications, versions, infrastructure, integrations, and more. CollabAI pulls from your CMDB (Configuration Management Database) if available or uses scripts to automate detailed discovery.
It captures not just workloads, but also every integration and dependency; think database links, external storage, and application mappings. Once captured, the data is processed and staged, ready for planning. No waiting weeks for inventories; CollabAI delivers actionable reports on demand, accelerating migration prep.
A Modular Platform for Any Migration Challenge
No two migrations are alike. CollabAI’s modular approach means you pick only the capabilities you need:
- Mid-Sized Projects: Run pilots or modernize a subset of your estate, then scale up as needed.
- Data Center Exit: Migrate entire data centers swiftly, ensuring cost savings or business agility.
- Multicloud Strategy: Manage workloads across OCI, AWS, Azure, and GCP with transparency and unified control.
- Innovation: Launch cloud-native applications using standardized, AI-driven patterns and blueprints.
- Operational Posture: Ensure ongoing governance, compliance, and optimization long after “go-live.”
Your journey, your modules, your pace. Start small, grow big.
Orchestrating Modern Cloud Migration: From Planning to Provisioning (End to End)
CollabAI’s intelligence does critical right-sizing—comparing legacy CPU, session counts, platform requirements, and more—and advises precisely which environment or cloud service fits best.
As soon as migration requirements are approved, CollabAI can automatically provision the necessary infrastructure from within its unified console. No more console-hopping; approvals flow straight into action.
What sets CollabAI apart is its full-lifecycle, modular coverage:
- Automate migration execution for lower environments—saving hours per workflow.
- Seamlessly transition operational data forward, empowering operations teams’ post-migration.
- Integrated incident management instantly captures and triages issues, with built-in ticketing.
As shown in Figure 2 above, CollabAI’s modular tool stack spans every stage, from discovery to ongoing Governance Insights, ensuring a seamless, connected experience across your cloud transformation. Once migration is complete, Governance Insights comes into play: all projects, pipelines, and costs become instantly trackable for each migration. CollabAI includes resource forecasting and proactive alerts for additional hardware or service limits.
