Addressing the increasing number of organizations moving their information systems to the cloud, Oracle has introduced 10 new Oracle Cloud services for its customers and partners.
Oracle Cloud offers a range of integrated services running in a secure, enterprise and standards-based cloud platform. The company claims that, unlike other clouds that offer services in one or two layers, Oracle Cloud is the only cloud that delivers a broad portfolio of integrated services across applications, social, platform and infrastructure.
Oracle Cloud provides a suite of modern, enterprise SaaS applications including Human Capital Management, Customer Experience, and Enterprise Resource Management, with built-in business intelligence, social and mobile capabilities.
The services are all available on a subscription basis.
Oracle Cloud partners will be able to refer and resell the new Oracle Cloud Platform and Infrastructure services through the existing Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) Cloud programs, enabling them to deliver a comprehensive portfolio of Application, Social, Platform and Infrastructure cloud-based services to their customers.
