CSC (NYSE: CSC) today announced the launch of CSC Foundation Services for Oracle, offering customers the ability to transform their business applications to a cloud-based computing infrastructure with Oracle hardware and software products. CSC Foundation Services for Oracle provides a proven framework to assist clients in leveraging Oracle’s integrated stack from applications-to-disk in a traditional or an As a Service model, including storage, servers, virtualization software, databases, middleware, applications and management software.

“Foundation Services for Oracle has really begun to gain traction both with our customers and with Oracle”

“Oracle delivers engineered systems, designed to help our customers and partners reduce the cost and complexity of IT infrastructures while increasing productivity and performance,” said Michelle Montalvo, vice president, Global System Integrator Alliances, Oracle. “Leveraging our engineered systems, CSC Foundation Services for Oracle will help equip customers to transform their Oracle investments into Oracle As a Service environments.”

CSC’s Foundation Services for Oracle are designed to guide clients on their journey to the cloud and the As a Service economy — from selecting and transforming applications to establishing their own private cloud environment in a very effective way to help ensure their business goals are achieved. These services leverage CSC’s Business First Approach, which evaluates enterprise business processes and identifies the ideal workloads that will generate the greatest ROI from cloud services. A key feature of this offering is the development of a demonstrable reference architecture that provisions Oracle applications, middleware and infrastructure through virtual instances in minutes. This reference architecture and the accompanying services have been successfully used to guide customers in establishing their own private cloud environments.

“Foundation Services for Oracle has really begun to gain traction both with our customers and with Oracle,” said Sreedhar Kajeepeta, vice president, CSC Global Technology Consulting. “We are building upon the success of Financial Services for Oracle to now focus on specific use cases and delivery models such as the Oracle Database As a Service (DBaaS) that CSC will be deploying within 2012.”
