OCR Services, Inc., is the leading provider of global trade compliance management software and solutions for a diverse range of industry verticals. With over 35 years of experience and offices across the world, OCR has been guiding companies through the increasingly complex regulatory environment of our global economy.
OCR provides a suite of Global Trade Management software modules to its clients. Many clients had opted for OCR to host the software, with a significant portion of these clients requiring advanced security due to increased sensitivity for global trade data protection.
As OCR’s solutions evolved, OCR was observing their hosting solution was lacking the modern considerations necessary in today’s technology realm. With its internal team dedicated to client care and support, OCR turned to Global Vox to find a path into a modern Infrastructure as a Service solution.
GlobalVox, an Oracle Partner, guided OCR in migrating hosted workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. In total, 350 clients’ deployed applications – both production and non-production – were moved seamlessly to OCI.
Each customer represented a unique mixture of modules, tenancy, and data footprint, with several hosting non-production applications on yet another legacy hosting vendor. Together, Global Vox and OCR migrated the database, application server, and web server tiers along with all client data. In addition, Global Vox implemented Rackware’s Disaster Recovery solution in OCI to add further protection from potential outages.
By partnering with Global Vox for this migration to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, OCR:
- Realized a 55% reduction in the cost of their application hosting
- Seamlessly moved 350 clients’ workloads from legacy to a modern platform, with zero interruption to client’s business operations, in only eight months.
