New training and testing environment expands
existing capabilities
Accenture (NYSE:ACN) is launching the Accenture Innovation
Center for Oracle Engineered Systems, enabling faster and more
cost-effective deployment of Oracle solutions for clients. The
Innovation Center will include prebuilt environments that allow
clients to test, train and complete proof of concepts with Oracle
Engineered Systems in order to prepare for a smoother
implementation within their own infrastructures.
The Accenture Innovation Center for Oracle Engineered Systems,
located in the Accenture Enkitec offices in Dallas, combines
Accenture’s functional and industry experience with Oracle’s
leading technologies. The Innovation Center will build on the
existing capabilities of the Accenture Oracle Engineered Systems
Center of Excellence with new components including Oracle
SuperCluster, Oracle Big Data Appliance, Oracle Database Appliance,
Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance and Virtual Compute Appliance. Before
making a significant investment, clients will be able to test their
workloads on one or more of Oracle’s pre-integrated systems to see
how a similar setup can accelerate enterprise application
deployment, strengthen analytics capabilities and improve overall
performance.
“Our goal is to help clients transform their data centers and
accelerate time to value from their Oracle technology investments,”
said Terri Strauss, managing director and global Oracle business
lead for Accenture. “This new Innovation Center for Oracle
Engineered Systems takes advantage of offerings such as our Oracle
Exadata data migration toolkit, the Accenture Foundation Platform
for Oracle, and Accenture solutions
and experience in specific industries including health and life
sciences, to help clients simplify their infrastructure, reduce
operational costs and encourage innovation.”
Oracle Engineered Systems combine Oracle’s software and hardware
technology, pre-integrated onto a single platform to enable
innovations at every layer of the stack. This can help clients
accelerate the development, delivery and commercialization of
business solutions based on Oracle’s Engineered Systems, including
Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud and
Oracle Exalytics In-Memory Machine.
Accenture completed its acquisition of Enkitec in June, bringing
Enkitec’s substantial experience and skills to Accenture’s Oracle
business to help simplify solution implementation, increase
productivity and accelerate time to value with Oracle Engineered
Systems and database technologies for clients.
Accenture has a fast-growing Oracle enterprise solutions
practice, with more than 52,000 Oracle-skilled consultants around
the world qualified to provide implementation, upgrade and
application outsourcing solutions for the Oracle product suite.
Accenture is a Diamond level partner in Oracle PartnerNetwork
(OPN).
