Join us at the Oracle@Oracle Experience at Oracle OpenWorld London to discover the new results we’ve achieved by moving our infrastructure to Oracle Cloud.

Like many of our customers, Oracle recently undertook a huge transformation in moving our on-premises IT infrastructure to Oracle Cloud. The results we’ve seen have been astonishing. We’re sharing this story with customers and prospects worldwide to help them achieve the same, or greater, results. This is what we call the Oracle@Oracle Experience, and we’re coming to an event near you!

If you joined our team of transformers at Oracle OpenWorld San Francisco, you heard the story of how we’ve moved our applications to Oracle Cloud. If you joined us in Dubai, you heard that we then moved our internal systems—applications, data warehouse, and IT infrastructure—to the cloud. Now, it’s time for the third stop on the Oracle@Oracle World Tour. Join us in London to discover the newest results of moving our infrastructure to the cloud.

Hear About the Benefits of Upgrading to the Cloud

Oracle Autonomous Database and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure powered our infrastructure transformation. Migrating to our own cloud offered immediate benefits.

Oracle Autonomous Database is a game changer for IT infrastructure. We can now deploy and manage infrastructure fully autonomously, which means launching new applications in minutes. Using Oracle Autonomous Database, we run mission-critical applications with zero database administration. This means no human labor, and no human error.

And after moving to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, we’re experiencing significant cost and time savings, and increased efficiencies company-wide. We’ve achieved a 2–10 times performance improvement across our applications, compared with the previous on-premises deployment. And we’ve saved millions in IT costs, in both the resources required to manage our system and the amount spent on the infrastructure resources themselves.

On top of that, it used to take months to build a new system, starting with procuring the hardware and all the subsequent steps to go live. Now, we can provision systems in minutes, which has enabled us to redeploy resources from operations work to new initiatives.

Lastly, we now have new capabilities in AI, machine learning, and IoT that we use to unlock new possibilities for our business and provide exceptional services to our employees and customers.
