Oracle has announced that Hitachi Construction Machinery has selected Oracle Cloud Infrastructure ( OCI ) to migrate its largescale , mission-critical business systems for accounting , development , production , design , sales , parts , export , human resources and services . By selecting Oracle Cloud VMware Solution and Oracle Exadata Database Service on OCI , the company has achieved a fast and reliable cloud migration with minimal changes to applications and databases from previous on-premises environments .
Hitachi Construction Machinery develops , manufactures , sells , rents , and services hydraulic excavators , wheel loaders , road equipment and mining equipment , with more than 400,000 units of construction equipment in operation worldwide . As part of its digital transformation effort ( DX ), it ’ s migrating its large-scale core system to the public cloud to unify data from mission-critical systems and construction equipment and prepare for future AI implementation .
Hitachi Construction Machinery selected OCI because it enabled a safe and secure migration strategy without requiring application changes . Additionally , the company benefits from improved business continuity and a reduced total cost of ownership ( TCO ). By moving to the cloud , Hitachi Construction Machinery has quickly and dynamically scaled its resources , increased flexibility as its business grows and changes , and reduced its infrastructure operating costs by 20 %. In addition , online transaction processing performance has improved by
50 %, and batch processing performance has enhanced by 60 % on several core business systems .
“ OCI is the only public cloud that can securely migrate mission-critical databases running on Oracle Exadata and VMware virtualisation environments since we can migrate quickly without configuration changes and reduce costs . Other clouds would have increased our costs due to having to rebuild applications ,” said Noriko Momoki , Senior Officer and President , DX Promotion Group , Hitachi Construction Machinery . “ The increased performance has significantly improved business processing time while reducing operational and management tasks , meaning our IT department can now focus on new projects to strengthen our business competitiveness .” �
