Why Oracle on Cloud?Cloud-based solutions—such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS) and Business Process as a Service (BPaaS) solutions—facilitate companies to significantly help reduce capital investments in IT. These solutions are playing an increasingly important role in driving top-line growth. Most of the major business challenges a company faces involve the IT enterprise systems, putting Oracle at the heart of a digital and business transformation for both chief financial officers and chief information officers (see Table 1).

Migrating ERP such as Oracle to the cloud is no longer a question of “if”, but “when”, for many companies it is already well on its way.
