Why SC Partener SRL Chose Oracle
—Cezar Baisanu, IT Director, SC Partener SRL
Results
Reduced infrastructure costs by 80% per year compared to on-premises implementation, slashed energy costs by 75%, and eliminated hardware maintenance and air conditioning costs
Solved critical backup issues—where the ERP system would be shut down for 10 to 12 hours each night for scheduled backups—and potential loss of transactional data by deploying Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service, which delivers a full backup every hour without interrupting day-to-day operations
Improved ERP performance by using virtual servers on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, optimally supporting retail operations and eliminating previous unsatisfactory hardware performance that resulted in long response times
Improved compute and database performance by migrating to the most advanced Oracle virtual servers available, ensuring stability of POS and inventory applications and making sure that sales are no longer lost or delayed due to system downtime
Provided a platform for future expansion by making it easier to deploy more servers cost-effectively on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, since new servers can be deployed in minutes rather than weeks—increasing flexibility and scalability
Reduced cost of IT infrastructure to support Partener’s growth plans to open several more retail stores in Romania and provide investment capital for further streamlining operations and improving customer experience
