Complexity is a part of every tech company’s daily reality. Even with advanced engineering and data science expertise at their fingertips, this firm found itself in need of a specific skill set when it came time to upgrade and migrate their Oracle database to Google Cloud VMware. 

Recommended by Google, Pythian was able to reassure this hesitant tech team with thorough consulting and meticulous planning. With an extra tight timeline, Pythian delivered a successful solution that exceeded expectations and allowed the migration to continue.

What we did

The tech company sought answers from Google, who knew about Pythian’s extensive expertise with a wide range of technologies and platforms. Pythian was able to help set up the firm for their migration with:

  • On-demand consultation and technical support. When the company needed help, Pythian provisioned virtual machines (VMs) into GCVE and Ansible to install Oracle software on the VMs, allowing the company to quickly resume their migration.
  • Automated tooling. Pythian provided the necessary tools to equip the tech company to continue the migration process and deploy VMware virtual machines and Oracle RAC Databases efficiently at-scale.
  • Responsive action. Despite tight time constraints, Pythian leveraged their Terraform and Ansible scripting automation experience for task automation to help the company deploy over 300 databases.
