Data has never been more plentiful and varied, prompting the use of virtualization techniques on both server and desktop side deployments. Add to these, the complexities of hybrid and multi-cloud adoption, and the frameworks find operations tricky and seemingly unmanageable. The Asia-Pacific is and will always be a lead player in the technology marketplace, peaking at a global scene with challenges mirroring those entirely at every step. Oracle's deployment models have come a long way in serving these objectives, and this time around, in 2018, the game is not too far from the players.In the light of IoT driving the frenzy of big data, the information fed into systems needs to be leveraged more effectively. This could have happened no sooner than now, with Oracle's autonomous "self-driving" database quoted by CEO, Larry Ellison as being "the most important thing that Oracle has ever done" and "will change the profile of our company forever." Oracle is making the transition toward Autonomous IT not only with this new self-driving variant of their database product, but they are also working toward autonomous cloud services across their range of PaaS offerings.Oracle is a key proponent of the migration revolution, in a world where the public cloud itself has become a livewire for fierce competition, and customers are spoilt for choice when it comes to their pick for a suitable solution provider. Oracle's solutions are setting the premises for multi-cloud models, and helping their company to stay up to date with these tech explosions is on top of every CIO's agenda.As always, to bring clarity into and map this ever-expanding space of enterprise cloud technologies, APAC CIO Outlook proudly presents to you its special edition on Oracle solutions. We hope the valuable insights from industry thought leaders and the cutting-edge solutions from leading as well as emerging companies featured in this edition will help you in making informed decisions for your institution.Let us know your thoughts.Annie JohnsonManaging Editoreditor@apacciooutlook.comThe Changing Face of the CloudSenior WritersLane Adams Clara MathewRoyce D'SouzaEditorialAlfred MardinKavyashree MRLouis BeckerRachael ClarkRoy ChowPooja Ray*Some of the Insights are based on the interviews with respective CIOs and CXOs to our editorial staffEmailsales@apacciooutlook.comeditor@apacciooutlook.commarketing@apacciooutlook.comContact usPhone: 1 510.996.5168Fax: 510-894-8405
