The need for agility and the challenges to be confronted

Whether you’re an enterprise or an ISV, speed of response is vital in today’s rapidly changing, hyper-competitive global markets.

If you’re unable to launch new services or extend existing ones into new territories – quickly and effectively – opportunities are lost and competitive advantage is compromised.

Transitioning infrastructure to multi-cloud platforms – utilising services such as Oracle Public Cloud or Bare Metal Cloud Services – is now critical for improving business agility.

But the task of planning and managing the migration of existing legacy systems to the cloud presents many obstacles. Confronting these challenges can be daunting, particularly for those tackling them for the first time. Added to which, you need to ensure that you’ve got a robust architecture that delivers the right levels of performance, security and resilience across private and public environments.
