Oracle Introduces Program to Improve Cloud Environments

Lower TCO and increase customer value
Services that provide convenient purchasing and expanded user choice
Oracle announced the launch of new programs, 'BYOL (Bring Your Own License to PaaS)' and 'Universal Credits', on September 25th, which will increase automation and elasticity of cloud solutions while lowering costs. The new programs, which were introduced by Chairman Larry Ellison himself at a live event held at Oracle headquarters in Redwood Shores on the 19th (local time in the US), are characterized by providing the maximum service at the lowest cost in the industry.
New Program 1. BYOL (Bring Your Own License to PaaS): Use Oracle Database PaaS with a corporate license.
Currently, customers can only use their on-premises licenses with Oracle's IaaS. BYOL is a program that allows customers to use Oracle PaaS solutions, including Oracle Database, Oracle Middleware, and Oracle Analytics, with their own software licenses. The cost is also dramatically reduced, making it the lowest in the industry. Customers can use Oracle's database cloud at a fraction of the price of previous PaaS offerings, and PaaS automation features also reduce on-premises maintenance and management costs. When you run Oracle's databases on Oracle IaaS, you get faster, more features, and the lowest total cost of ownership than competing clouds.
New Program 2. Universal Credit: Simplify your purchase of Oracle PaaS and IaaS and expand your choices.
Universal Credits gives customers the greatest flexibility in purchasing and consuming cloud services. The Universal Credits program provides unlimited access to all current and future Oracle PaaS and IaaS offerings in Oracle Cloud, both within the Oracle Cloud and on customer systems. Customers enjoy on-demand access to all services, cost savings on prepaid services, and the ability to relocate or expand data centers as needed. Customers can also switch between PaaS and IaaS services without notifying Oracle, and they can also benefit from using existing cloud credits to access new Oracle services in the future.
Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison emphasized the significance of the new program, saying, "Oracle's new program, which enhances flexibility and expands user choice, will completely change the way customers buy and use the cloud. By enabling greater automation and access to the highest-performance cloud at the lowest cost, customers will be able to lower their total cost of ownership (TCO)."
The need is high, but many companies are still hesitant to move to the cloud due to concerns about flexibility and low cost. Cloud usage also presents drawbacks, including the complexity of the cloud, the difficulty of adjusting costs based on individual service combinations, limited visibility, and constraints on cloud cost control. Furthermore, companies using the cloud are often limited to IaaS services or unable to access key database functions in PaaS, hindering the full use of their on-premises software in the cloud. Oracle expects the new program to address these issues.
