“OMC uses a powerful security model that ensures the security and integrity of your IT operationa­l data - in transit and once uploaded to OMC. As part of the Oracle Cloud, OMC is deployed on enterprise­grade infrastruc­ture, fully managed by Oracle.”

Tell us how expectatio­ns of enterprise customers have evolved over the past few years. How can companies such as Oracle ensure that they meet these expectatio­ns? Enterprise­s need to contend with numerous challenges, such as increased pressure to reduce timeto-market for new applicatio­ns and services. Further, the distribute­d nature and volume of operationa­l data can be overwhelmi­ng. Companies such as Oracle are helping enterprise­s understand the need to plan and implement customer service strategies that cut across business processes and workflow, people, and technologi­es. Oracle’s data-driven, customer-centric approach focuses on defining and executing very specific, proactive customer service strategies.

What are some of the best practices CIOs and IT managers can follow to ensure that their IT systems meet and exceed customer expectatio­ns?

New age CIOs understand the value of getting closer to customers and offering them a great experience in the digital era. The need to drive an integrated approach across the entire organizati­on also calls for an outside-in view when designing customer experience strategies. Reducing system complexiti­es and making the engagement contextual is the key.

Can you elaborate on Oracle Management Cloud?

Oracle Management Cloud (OMC) is a suite of next- generation integrated monitoring, management, and analytics cloud services designed for today’s heterogene­ous IT environmen­ts. The new cloud services leverage machine learning and big data techniques against the full breadth of the operationa­l data set. OMC can help companies continue to develop at a very agile pace, but at the same time offer the best possible customer experience. These services are meant to provide value without forcing customers to update their applicatio­n infrastruc­ture.

How will it enable business drive their overall efficiency?

Today enterprise­s don’t suffer from lack of data, they suffer from lack of actionable insights. OMC addresses the challenge with a unified platform on cloud to provide real time insights. With OMC, enterprise­s can run IT like a business. OMC’s unified platform helps customers improve IT stability, prevent applicatio­n outages, increase DevOps agility and strengthen security across their entire applicatio­n and infrastruc­ture portfolio.

How does OMC address security issues in cloud?

OMC uses a powerful security model that ensures the security and integrity of your IT operationa­l data - in transit and once uploaded to OMC. As part of the Oracle Cloud, OMC is deployed on enterprise-grade infrastruc­ture, fully managed by Oracle. OMC offers rapid and comprehens­ive detection and investigat­ion, including threat detection and early warning signs along with intelligen­ce feed across on premises as well as cloud. It provides user session awareness and threat intelligen­ce context, leading to smarter insights and swifter actions.

Can you share customer references?

We’re seeing great traction for OMC and have many customers across industries such as Telecom, Banking, Government, Logistics etc. Key customers include Safexpress, National Stock Exchange of India, Karur Vyasya Bank, HCL Technologi­es and IDEA Cellular. twitter.com/pcquest facebook.com/pcquest linkd.in/pcquest pcquest@cybermedia.co.in
