Oracle Cloud Migration & Optimization
We can help you with your Oracle Cloud migration, or with moving to another cloud provider of your choice, whether that’s AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
Independent advice on moving to Oracle's Cloud
Companies all over the world are migrating all or part of their IT infrastructure to the cloud. Oracle technology and applications are no exceptions. Making a decision on how and when to move to the cloud should be fairly straightforward. As with most things involving Oracle, however, Oracle Cloud migration is just not that easy.
What issues do companies face when moving to the cloud with Oracle?
- Oracle will increase fees 300-400% when you move to their cloud.
- Oracle states that people can’t move to the cloud of their choice, which is false.
- Oracle states they won’t support people in a 3rd party cloud, which is false.
As an Oracle customer looking to migrate to the cloud, you want to protect the significant investments you have made in your Oracle licenses, while at the same time choosing the cloud environment that best fits your technical needs. You have no interest in being locked into Oracle and paying Oracle more money.
Most Oracle customers who move to the cloud do not want to use Oracle’s cloud. Companies of all shapes and sizes are moving to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and others. While you are heading toward the non-Oracle cloud world, Oracle is desperately trying to get you to use their cloud.
