Oracle Partners With HP to Provide Solutions for Mid-Size Companies

Enterprise software company Oracle has partnered with HP to deliver complete software, hardware and services solutions targeted at mid-size companies in India.

The offerings comprise combinations of Oracle Accelerate solutions on Oracle E-business suite and JD Edwards suite of products, and HP reference configurations designed for mid-size companies. The HP reference configurations for Oracle are guidelines for HP servers, storage and software that are based on joint HP and Oracle engineering expertise and practices, the companies said.

Ashok Pamidi, director for commercial accounts at HP India said: "HP reference configurations combined with Oracle Accelerate Solutions cater specifically to the unique needs of mid-size and growing businesses in India. Oracle's secure and feature-rich solutions together with HP's offerings designed specifically for mid-size business requirements will help customers reduce cost, mitigate risks and grow their businesses."

"Starting from $76,579 (INR 30 lakh), the end to end solutions offered by the two companies could support midsized company user counts of 25, 50, 100 or 200, can save customers valuable configuration time and provide guidance when deploying Oracle on HP hardware," Mr Pamidi added.

Both the companies announced plans to jointly deliver complete software, hardware and service solutions tailored to midsize companies in October 2007. In July 2006, the companies announced the development of reference configurations, which they claim can accelerate implementation by IT departments of Oracle Database 10g-based data warehouses on HP servers and storage.
