16. When looking at Cloud – ask…
What’s the
problem
you’re trying to solve ?

17. Oracle Cloud Platform
“Many organisations spend 80% of their IT budget on
maintenance and only 20% on innovation. With
Oracle Cloud Platform, you can flip that equation”

18. Update Image Options

 Subscribe to updates

 Create custom DPKs
based on on-premise
systems (Lift & Shift)
 Apply PeopleTools
patches & upgrades
to provisioned
systems

23. Cloud Manager Environments
Linux
Windows

24. Compute Cloud Instances
Linux
Windows

25. Cloud Launch Plan vs Orchestration
 Launch Plan API
 JSON based file which describes the instance to create and start
 Quick and easy method – but has limitations

26. Cloud Launch Plan vs Orchestration
 Orchestrations
 JSON formatted file to define all the various cloud components
(compute, storage, networking, etc)
 Defines interdependencies
 Stop and Start of Orchestration will delete and re-create instance
 Suspend the Orchestration and the Instance will stop

27. Cloud Manager Stop
 Stop – ONLY stops PeopleSoft
services
 If Environment has been
Migrated to Orchestration then
the entire instance is stopped

28. Stopping Instances in OCC Console
 Instance created by CM cannot
be stopped unless Migrated to
Orchetsrtation
 Oracle MarketPlace provisioned
instances use Orchestrations
therefore can be stopped

29. Stop in CM = Suspended Orchestration
If Orchestrated instances are stoped in CM then they are suspended.

32. Selective Adoption

33. So how does Oracle Cloud help Selective Adoption?
1. Deploy Update Images
 Including Windows workstation for Change Assistant
2. Deploy Demo instances for business users – “show & tell”
3. Extension of on-premise hardware
 Copy of Development during a Get Current
 Additional developer workstations
 Test systems
4. Quickly Apply latest PeopleTools Patch
 Testing & Rearch

have been running
PeopleSoft in the
cloud for years
Web

Database Server
Cloud Infrastructure Provider

43.  Oracle Cloud offers significant value (cost, agility, security,
performance)
 PeopleSoft Update Images run easily on any Cloud helped by PCA
 PeopleSoft Cloud Manager & Cloud MarketPlace is a differentiator
 Security must be factored in – not new with remote data centres
In Summary

using servers.
You get points for serving
customers.”
