How Migrating to Next-Gen Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Helps

By CIOReview | Friday, June 18, 2021

FREMONT, CA: Migrating to the public cloud might be scary for any firm that has previously run workloads on-premises. Some enterprise applications and legacy infrastructure continue to be hosted on-premises. It is frequently preferred since most corporate applications contain a long-term value, data, and critical business processes. How do IT leaders decide when it is time to migrate to the cloud?

When planning a cloud migration, IT leaders with on-premises enterprises must make some difficult decisions early on. They must contend with the complexity of migrating specific data, apps, or business processes to the cloud. To grasp the ramifications for their business, they will likely need a collection of tools, services, and strategies. With IT's fundamental role evolving to include a greater focus on business strategy, it is also essential to evaluate how cloud cuts costs, improves resource management and accelerates innovation across the organization. While embracing the cloud may be cost-effective and beneficial to company objectives, achieving a smooth transition from traditional infrastructure to the cloud is critical.

Next-Generation Cloud Infrastructure

Oracle has released a public cloud designed primarily for the deployment of enterprise applications and databases. It offers a set of tools and services for building new cloud-native and mobile apps, all on a single platform and networking fabric. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides enterprise IT with the performance, flexibility, and control it requires, with performance that often exceeds that of on-premises, high-performance computing environments. Oracle also provides tools to help businesses transfer current programs to the cloud without having to rewrite them and dedicated cloud support for Oracle applications, including Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Siebel, and others.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), a next-generation cloud, combines the elasticity and usefulness of the public cloud with on-premise computing environments' control, security, performance, and predictability. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides uniform service standards for all application types and computes environments. This covers technical computer tasks such as accident testing, insurance risk modeling, and testing novel manufacturing materials. Organizations using Oracle Cloud have their own network, known as a virtual cloud network, that is segregated from every other customer's network. Single-tenant, high-performance bare-metal servers with no provider software can be found in these virtual cloud networks. This allows businesses to personalize their computing environments and execute programs in the same way they would on-premise. Furthermore, Oracle's next-generation cloud provides genuine multi-cloud innovation, with new agreements with Microsoft Azure and VMware allowing businesses to use their existing investments.
