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.
