Customers want to know how much it will cost for [EBS migration to Oracle Cloud](https://www.opkey.com/blog/key-benefits-of-upgrading-from-oracle-ebs-to-oracle-cloud-infrastructure/). This prompted to develop a complex total cost of an ownership evaluation tool to show possible savings and assist you in determining whether an EBS migration is appropriate for your company. As deployments progress from proof of concept to steady-state production settings at an enterprise scale, companies are then able to offer predictable, affordable pricing by utilizing OCI. The majority of clients who switched to OCI experienced cost savings ranging from 20% to 50%.
It is expected that your company uses an Oracle E-Business Suite on-premises implementation for order management, purchasing, manufacturing, logistics, and/or financials. Your Oracle E-Business Suite system may have been tailored to precisely meet your needs and is highly integrated with other programs to support everyday operations. As a result, it might not be necessary to start from scratch, redesign, and retrain staff to implement a new software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering. The benefit of employing an infrastructure as a service (IaaS) offering is the adaptability to suit what you already do with Oracle E-Business Suite. The performance, security, and business continuity plans are under your control with IaaS. Here’s how you can cut costs:

## Lessen your dependency on the infrastructure of data centers.

It costs a lot to purchase, set up, and maintain hardware. Through straightforward, competitive, and flexible pricing that you pay for a month to month as an operating expense rather than an upfront capital expense, OCI offers predictable savings. To relieve your infrastructure resources from the expensive chore of managing your data center, OCI delivers automated patching and ongoing security improvements.

## Pay just what you consume

You may quickly add or subtract compute capacity with OCI as your business expands over time or according to seasonality. As opposed to expensive and time-consuming alternatives like upgrading CPU, memory, and storage, as you would with hardware on-premises, increasing compute power and capacity, may be done in a matter of minutes. Operating costs are kept low because you don’t have to scale up until it’s essential and can tailor your computing power whenever you want.

## Pricing Predictability

To plan their budgets and manage their businesses, both enterprise users and tech vendors need cost predictability. It can be very challenging to precisely predict cost over time when running workloads on the clouds of other providers, but not when using OCI. Oracle’s straightforward rate structures avoid unexpected costs related to difficult-to-estimate consumption components, such as data egress and storage performance. Furthermore, OCI doesn’t increase the cost of service because Oracle charges the same prices across all locations.

## Infrastructure and Tooling Support

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers a wide range of tooling and infrastructure support systems because it is specifically made to serve workloads like Oracle E-Business Suite. To provide your users with a high-performance experience at a lower operational cost, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers greater performance computing, storage, networking, and managed database instances. The only platform that supports running Oracle Database with Oracle RAC or Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Other cloud systems can only be configured in less reliable ways.

## Conclusion

Additionally, Oracle offers specialized automation and tooling to speed up deployment, migrating, updating, and maintenance of your implementation, cutting down on migration time, expertise, risk, and expense. Trial versions of Oracle E-Business Suite Cloud Manager, Oracle Enterprise Manager, and Oracle Management Cloud are available on the Oracle E-Business Suite Marketplace.
