Why partner with Oracle
Oracle offers a variety of incentives for partners to support customers. Some of these include:
· Oracle Support Rewards: This new program helps reduce support bill for partners and customers. Partners can earn $0.25 to $0.33 in rewards for every $1 spent on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure consumption. These rewards can be applied to reduce their tech software license support bill to a great extent.
· Oracle Cloud Lift Services: Through this, partners and customers are provided guidance from cloud engineers on planning, architecting, prototyping and managing cloud migrations. This way they can move critical workloads in weeks, or even days, instead of months.
· Oracle Partner Network (OPN) Service Delivery Incentives: When partners help customers to successfully move their workload to OCI, they get access to a comprehensive suite of incentives that reward partners when they help customers to buy and adopt, implement and deploy; and then manage and grow their OCI footprint.
· Oracle Cloud Service Provider (CSP) Annual Aggregate Buying Model: This applies to CSP expertise partners of Oracle, who can also enjoy aggregated buying of OCI across the entire tenancy that they manage to earn tiered discounts on OCI.
“Oracle has been a pioneer in enterprise digital transformation for decades and its cloud platform — OCI will lead us to a true data economy. As an exclusive Oracle Cloud partner with a strong pool of Oracle certified experts, we are looking forward to working with Oracle and helping enterprises and public offices realize their cloud journey smoothly with OCI,” said Satyendra Kumar, managing director, Infolob Solutions India Pvt. Ltd.
Oracle industry partnerships give customers the best choice
Oracle and Microsoft have shown they’re committed to making multicloud environments work for their customers. Under a strategic cloud interconnect partnership, the two companies are making it easy for their joint customers in countries worldwide, to connect their Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services, such as Autonomous Database, to their Microsoft Azure services, such as analytics and AI. By enabling customers to run one part of a workload within OCI and another part of the same workload within Azure—incorporating unified identity and access management as well as a joint customer support model—the partnership delivers a best-of-both-clouds experience
Oracle and VMware are embracing hybrid cloud by making it easy for customers to deploy their VMware-based virtual machines on OCI. Oracle Cloud VMware Solution lets customers leave some portion of their VMware estate on premises and burst other parts to the Oracle Cloud. And they can do so without having to modify their people’s skills or their company’s software tools and processes. This means customers can get to hybrid cloud in a matter of hours without any major architectural changes and the associated risks.
