Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oracle Cloud@Customer

Are you already using the Oracle Cloud, still considering it, or do you simply want to learn more about Oracle Cloud services? The Tradeware team is here to support you with expertise and reliability. We guide you on your journey to the Oracle Cloud, from the initial concept up to implementation. Through our Managed Services Offering, we can also take over the complete operation of an Oracle cloud solution for you.

The advantages of a cloud solution are evident. You no longer need to manage server operations, systems are available anytime and anywhere, and increased automation and digitization streamline workflows and processes. Additionally, resource management becomes highly flexible. Cloud services reduce the operational burden of hardware and software maintenance, freeing up resources to drive innovation within your organization or department. The high adoption rate of cloud computing is primarily due to its economic benefits, as cloud services can significantly lower overall costs.

Not every use case is suitable for the cloud. It depends on the unique application portfolio, business priorities, and strategic goals of a company. For this reason, a cloud project typically begins with fundamental discussions about technical requirements and commercial expectations. In a subsequent thorough analysis, we weigh the advantages and disadvantages of a cloud solution within the framework of your specifications and assess feasibility. We assist you in addressing known challenges, such as internal and external regulations and guidelines, clarifying risks and requirements related to data security, network security, access controls and permissions, and appropriate monitoring of the security setup.

Once the initial assessments and analyses lead to a decision for a cloud project, the next step is designing the architecture. Oracle offers various cloud solutions, such as the Oracle Public Cloud or the Cloud@Customer family of solutions. The choice depends on whether you prefer to fully utilize the Oracle Cloud infrastructure or leverage the advantages of your own data center, as with the Exadata Cloud@Customer. In this case, the systems are located in the customer's data centers and integrated into their networks, with management and operations running on a subscription model similar to the Public Cloud’s "pay for what you use" approach. Regardless of the chosen cloud solution, cloud automation ensures reliable, secure, and efficient operations.

After defining a solution architecture, the next step often involves creating a 'Proof of Concept' (PoC). This involves building the defined solution to demonstrate through testing that the architecture will meet the specified requirements. If the PoC is successful, the implementation of the cloud project can begin. During the implementation of a new cloud solution and the potential migration of existing databases and related systems, Tradeware offers professional project services to ensure successful execution. Tradeware can refer to a wide range of successfully completed projects. What do our clients say about working with Tradeware? We would like to share a recent client testimonial with you.
