Cloud Considerations

Benefits of the Cloud

• Flexibility and Scalability

• Disaster Recovery

• Security

• Reduced Capital Expenditure

• Hardware and Software Maintenance

Cloud Options

• Software as a Service (SaaS) – move to Oracle Cloud ERP

Applications

• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) – moving reliance on

internal hardware and support, including all Hosting options

Note that Oracle EBS is only currently certified on the Oracle Cloud.
