Oracle Teams with Secure-24 for JD Edwards Hosting
September 23, 2014 Alex Woodie
Oracle last week announced a partnership with the managed service provider (MSP) Secure-24 that will enable its ERP, CRM, and BI customers to leverage the MSP’s hosting services. The new service, dubbed Secure-24 Cloud Advantage for Oracle, uses the Virtual Compute Appliance (VCA), which Oracle says is a “wire once, software-defined converged infrastructure system” that can run Windows, Linux, or Solaris. Secure-24 has installed Oracle VCAs into two data centers, which form the backbone for the Secure-24 Cloud Advantage for Oracle service. The offering blends managed hosting and disaster recovery services into a single offering. Oracle says the service is available for JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Oracle E-Business Suite, and Hyperion environments. Sean Donaldson, co-chief technology officer at Secure-24, says the VCA represents “an industry breakthrough” for companies requiring fast deployment and high performance and resilience. “Customers also benefit from having a single point of contact for vendor management for all hardware and software issues,” he says.
