For a retail and FMCG enterprise, Financial Close and Supply Chain Planning set the pace of the business. This enterprise runs both on Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), with users across Vietnam and APAC, and the ERP was hosted in a USA region.
Oracle EBS 12.2.3 on Oracle Database 19c carried those transaction-heavy operations. The enterprise set out to give the ERP dedicated, high-performance infrastructure, closer to its users and on current Oracle releases, without disrupting the business.
Business Objective
Give the ERP dedicated, high-performance infrastructure, hosted close to its users in APAC and built on current Oracle releases, without disrupting finance and supply chain operations.
Challenges
Four priorities shaped the program:
- Proximity to users. With the ERP hosted in a USA region, users across Vietnam and APAC stood to gain from a platform hosted in their own region.
- The next release cycle. Oracle EBS 12.2.3 and Database 19c had carried finance and supply chain operations; current releases offered the performance, automation and scalability the next phase of growth called for.
- High-volume processing. Financial Close and Supply Chain Planning (ASCP) run high transaction volumes, where faster processing and consistent reliability matter most.
- Dedicated performance. The business wanted predictable, high performance from infrastructure dedicated to its ERP.
