Oracle Cloud Lift Services accelerates Cloud migration

One of the biggest pain points of cloud adoption is the cost and effort of migration. To ease the process, Oracle has launched Oracle Cloud Lift Services which gives customers an expanded access to technical tools and cloud engineering resources to quickly migrate workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle now offers these resources – at no additional cost – to all existing and new Oracle Cloud customers worldwide.

“Our customers want a seamless path to the cloud with the right guidance, solution architecture, and hands-on help we can provide,” said Vinay Kumar, Senior Vice President, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. “Oracle Cloud Lift Services is just one of several changes we are implementing to accelerate customer success on Oracle Cloud.”

Oracle’s new program provides a single point of contact for all technical delivery and removes critical expertise barriers for adoption of OCI services, speeding time to value and creating faster opportunities to innovate. With Oracle Cloud Lift Services, customers get access to Oracle cloud engineers and premier technical services that have accelerated migrations to OCI for enterprise customers including Seattle Sounders FC, Cargill and Rice University. As part of the program, customers will have access to cloud engineering resources for activities ranging from performance analysis, application architecture, hands on migrations and go-live support. Oracle will work with customers until their workloads are in production and help train their staff on best practices so they have the expertise to run the environment moving forward.

Customers and partners are already seeing value in this new program and are getting through migrations faster, with more of their IT budget intact for more valuable operational services and major digital transformation projects.
