Deploying Peoplesoft on Bare Metal Cloud Service
Realize instant savings & performance without the pain of a big-bang upgrade
Think tanks like Gartner and Forrester have advised CIO’s they need a cloud strategy for more than a decade. Sure, this works for ancillary applications like sales and service, however core ERP systems are particularly challenging. In fact, most customers are still running their aging systems on premise because moving Peoplesoft to the cloud hasn’t been an effective and beneficial alternative.
The public cloud hasn’t been accommodating to your production Peoplesoft installation. First, your infrastructure, including data and compute are co-mingled with other tenants sacrificing performance and potentially security compliance. Second, some sort of upgrade or conversion is required to get your Poeplesoft stack to a revision that can be moved. Finally, there isn’t much of a reward for the expense of doing this, you’ll still be paying the same or more license and support costs.
As the name implies, the bare metal cloud is an entirely new cloud infrastructure dedicated and isolated for your Peoplesoft and boundary application systems. With BMCS, you will have the freedom to run your own version without upgrading; the nimbleness of cloud provisioning; and the potential to fractionalize licenses during non-peak times, reducing license and support costs.

The Challenges
With running Peoplesoft on the public cloud.
Security Concerns
With the public cloud you have less control over the transmission and storage of your data and Peoplesoft installation. The cloud vendor defines the architecture and co-locates you with other tenants.
Availability Concerns
With any public cloud, you are sharing your infrastructure with anyone, even noisy neighbors like retail companies on black friday. Poor performance coupled with latency in cloud services can have a devastating impact to your Peoplesoft users.
Expensive Re-implementations
Vendors, like Workday and Oracle, pushing hard for their hosted software-as-a-service apps in the cloud. Moving to these applications will require a massive effort on your part to re-implment and force your business to change its processes.
Time Consuming Upgrades
Most of the cloud’s platform-as-a-service offerings won’t work with technology stack embedded within your old version of Peoplesoft. To take advantage of public cloud PAAS, you’ll need to upgrade… again.
The Benefits
Of moving to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Agility and Nimbleness
You can keep up with the fast pace of business innovation without the encumbrance of managing, updating, replacing your own physical infrastructure.
Dedicated Hardware
You’ll have the piece of mind that your business critical Peoplesoft installation will be running on your own hardware with your data on your own storage.
Simplified Maintenance / Automation
You’ll be able to rapidly provision and clone new infrastructure from a familiar web interface without having to worry about physical interoperability.
Reduced License Costs
On premise servers are sized for peak loads. With BMCS, you will be able to take advantage of reduced license and support costs during periods you don’t need peak capacity.
