Moving to the cloud is often viewed as a challenging and complex process, but it should be seen as simple upgrade, according to Oracle Solution Engineering Director Ocea Garriock.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the 2019 MyBroadband Cloud Conference, Garriock said that Oracle has seen impressive growth in the number of customers migrating to the cloud.<\/p>\n
“We have seen a major uptake of cloud in recent times,” Garriock said. “We have a full application for our SaaS solutions, and we have 2,500 clients that have already embraced those solutions in the cloud.”<\/p>\n
“Embedded into these applications are cutting-edge technologies such as AI, blockchain, and IoT.”<\/p>\n
Garriock added that the security is also superior in a cloud environment due to the quick patching of vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n
“Most breaches occur where the patch is already available but it hasn’t been applied yet,” Garriock said. “Cloud environments remove this threat by updating as quickly as possible.”<\/p>\n
Garriock said that Oracle aims to make migrating services to the cloud as easy as a standard upgrade.<\/p>\n
“We want to make it as simple as an upgrade to move to the cloud,” she said. “Everybody has a roadmap, but we want to make it as simple as possible. It is the last upgrade you will have to do.”<\/p>\n
“Moving to cloud reduces costs and risks, moves your people from administration to innovation, increases productivity, and gives you new ways to deliver services and experiences to clients,” she said.<\/p>\n
Oracle offers a range of migration options to its customers, including the public cloud, on-premise solutions, and cloud-at-customer.<\/p>\n
The cloud-at-customer solution allows clients which want to control the location of their data the ability to run a cloud solution using an on-premise environment provided and managed by Oracle.<\/p>\n
