Cloud Resell Program Oracle Partner Network

October 8, 2015 1 Comment

 

clip_image002For partners interested in building recurring revenue selling Oracle Cloud services, the Oracle Cloud Resell program enables partners to participate in the lifetime value of the subscription including add-on, upgrade and renewal opportunities.

The Oracle Cloud Resell program offers recurring revenue from the ongoing Cloud Service that your resell. In the resell program, you – the partner, own the relationship and you participate in the entire lifetime value of the contract. You also benefit from delivering implementation and consulting services with the knowledge obtained through the Oracle specialization program. This is revenue direct to your bottom line and can be seamlessly bundled in the Cloud Service subscription price to the end customer.

Requirements to Resell Cloud Services
  1. Be an Oracle PartnerNetwork member in good standing (Gold or higher) with a valid OPN Agreement
  2. Meet the resale competency criteria set forth within each of the Knowledge Zones (listed below)
  3. Execute a Full Use Program Distribution Agreement (FUDA) from the Oracle Partner Store
  4. Execute a Cloud Services Distribution Addendum (CSDA) to the FUDA by contacting a Partner Business Center representative

PaaS and SaaS: Perfect Together by Debra Lilley

October 6, 2015 Leave a comment

clip_image001Platform as a service, or PaaS, is exciting a lot of our customers—not just those who want to move to the cloud, but also those who see PaaS as a way to build applications faster and more efficiently. As Oracle releases more development tools in the cloud, I believe that PaaS will become the de facto way to extend software as a service (SaaS).

First, let’s explore some of the major benefits of PaaS. With PaaS, you no longer have to worry about the cost and time associated with maintaining hardware or a data center. By bypassing the setup required for a development environment, your organization will achieve faster time to value on projects. Most PaaS offerings are on a consumption model: Much like buying gas, you fill up only when you need to, and you pay for only what you use. Finally, the quick-start, user-friendly, cloud-based development tools enable and foster continuous innovation.

In my work for Certus Solutions, a leader in Oracle Cloud implementations in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, I have been particularly interested in “PaaS4SaaS,” which is the ability to extend Oracle’s cloud platform and applications with our own mini applications and have them seamlessly co-exist. Here are a few points I’ve observed for Oracle customers looking to do the same. Read the complete article here.

What is the Power of Cloud? (to the Business) By Dave Berry

September 10, 2015 Leave a comment

 

Of course many readers, technologists and businesses are acutely aware of the value prop of the cloud but what about the rest of the "majority" of people who don’t? If you do a search on this topic, you will mostly get links to marketing materials that are fairly high level and full of the usual buzzwords with more links to lengthy case studies. As a business technology enabler, there needs to be a simpler message or elevator pitch that is easy to understand yet convincing. Ah, the simplicity or less is more approach rears it’s beautiful head once again. Below are some recipes to draw from for an elevator ride of any duration.

The Enterprise Cloud Reduces Business Outages Increasing Customer Satisfaction

Put simply and avoiding technical acronyms, can the business rely on 99.99+% availability from the cloud? Look no further than Netflix as an example because yes the cloud is certainly up to the task.

Immediate Availability Gives You a Your Competitive Edge (for now)

Back in the day, Dell drove industry change by assembling computers on demand reducing inventories and wrecking havoc on computer storefronts. Well the cloud equivalent is to be able to go to the cloud store, answer a few questions, enter your credit info and within 1 hour or less you are up and running.

A Right Sized Business Reduces Time, Headaches and Cost

You may wonder what this is? It takes many forms but to me you have to ask does the business get what it paid for? No more shelf ware and complicated upgrade processes. You need more capacity for certain business cycles, zoom it’s there. You need more storage, of course that is automated. You think Apple and other retailers have to turn on any switches to increase capacity? Maybe they do now but they shouldn’t.

Business Friendly User Interfaces Decreases Time to Market

Your thinking mobile and that is certainly true but it is much more than that. This is the type of disruptive technology that could put technologists like me out of work. Non-technical end users must be able to build and deploy apps that previously required a CS degree and many years of experience. Consider how Smart Data cloud initiatives are disrupting Big Data. Nate Silver, beware.

Build a Nimble Business by Thinking Small

The cloud is all about modularity, extensibility and continuous release cycles. A/B testing drives micro feature planning rendering the traditional roadmap virtually useless. In a fully optimized environment, features will show up before you even have a chance to request them. Social tools will drive this change more than traditional communication channels and you have to be on top of it because your competition sure is. Read the complete article here.
