Global organizations with a major Oracle on-premise footprint are looking to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), but migration to OCI can be challenging. Hence Wipro has developed Wipro Zero Cost Transformation, a new product that assists enterprises in migrating to the cloud, in conjunction with Oracle. Wipro is an Oracle PartnerNetwork member (OPN).

Excessive costs, weak implementations, and delayed processes typically hamper organizations' attempts to derive value from the cloud. Companies can benefit from application and infrastructure support provided under a managed-services framework with Wipro's Zero Cost Transformation.

This allows them to migrate workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) at a lower cost, shift from a Capital expenditures (CapEx) to an Operating expenses (OpEx) model, and benefit from application and infrastructure support provided under a managed-services framework.

On the other hand, Wipro is an Oracle Managed Service Expertise partner, and it's Oracle Cloud certified consultants have expanded by 400 percent within three years. Dealing with various service providers for cloud migration and support is no longer a concern with Zero Cost Transformation.

The solution, which is based on Wipro's six-step migration methodology and unique tools and accelerators, allows for a quick and secure migration to OCI while lowering total cost of ownership.

The new offering, which was developed in collaboration with Oracle, gives organizations access to best-in-class enterprise security and technology innovation.

The new offering aids organizations in accelerating their migration to Oracle Cloud. This comprehensive managed-services offering enables enterprises to move Oracle on-premise applications, associated workloads, and boundary systems to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure by technically arranging the modernization of existing infrastructure and supporting databases.

Wipro offers a risk-mitigated, fast, and secure OCI migration at no cost by utilizing a six-step cloud migration method. It also takes over application support for these apps from incumbent service providers at no cost, removing the hassle of dealing with several service providers for app migration and support.

Organizations can lower their total cost of ownership by up to 25 percent to 40 percent by converting to OCI for zero cost and reap benefits such as agility, scalability, high availability, high performance, and economic viability.

In the words of Phil Fersht, Founder and CEO, HFS Research, “there is simply no option but to have a transformation plan to manage data and design processes in the cloud to keep companies operating effectively in the new reality. In this Work-from-Anywhere Economy, our global talent has to come together to create a borderless, completely digital business; this is the true environment for real digital transformation in action. The Wipro/Oracle partnership removes many of the cost, quality and time barriers those companies could experience and is a positive step forward to enable global enterprises to embrace their cloud future”.

“Zero Cost Transformation, a unique offering from Wipro, enables organizations to leverage the power of the cloud to meet rapidly changing market and business needs. We strongly believe that organizations that are invested in the Oracle on-premise landscape and are seeking the opportunities offered by the Oracle Cloud will benefit from this initiative”, says Doug Smith, Senior Vice President, Strategic Partnerships, Oracle.

“As the cloud takes on strategic importance, we are committed to making the transition as easy as possible for organizations worldwide. The launch of the Zero Cost Transformation offering for OCI is a testament to Wipro’s partnership approach with customers. We look forward to developing further solutions with Oracle that empower companies to embrace the cloud quickly, effectively, and with an eye toward value”, added Harish Dwarkanhalli, President, Applications & Data, Wipro Limited.
