California Department of General Services Reduces Costs and Maximizes ROI with AST Lift and Shift to the CloudCalifornia Department of General Services Reduces Costs and Maximizes ROI with AST Lift and Shift to the Cloud

California Department of General Services Reduces Costs and Maximizes ROI with AST Lift and Shift to the Cloud

Situation

The California Department of General Services (DGS) serves the State of California by providing a centralized services to State agencies through procurement and acquisition solutions, real estate management, transportation, administrative hearings & legal services, and more.

DGS was using an on-premises deployment of Oracle E-Business Suite for Financials, HR, Payroll and custom time & labor, which was resulting in performance issues, limited availability and storage, and lack of a disaster recovery solution. DGS needed to deploy modern infrastructure to achieve its specific goals and better serve its customers and citizens. The department needed to:

  • Reduce downtime and improve provisioning, availability, and storage issues;
  • Achieve high availability and performance;
  • Establish appropriate disaster recovery;
  • Replace or upgrade aging hardware to cloud infrastructure that is more elastic and scalable;
  • Limit upfront capital costs and increase ROI.
