Hitachi Consulting Presents "The Cloud--the Shift from Digital Disruption to Digital Enabler" at Oracle OpenWorld 2016 General Session

DALLAS, Sept. 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Hitachi Consulting, a subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd (TSE: 6501), Diamond level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) and Oracle Cloud Premier Partner will present "The Cloud—the Shift from Digital Disruption to Digital Enabler" at Oracle OpenWorld's 2016 General Session in San Francisco, CA, September 19, 2016. The presentation features Camillo Speroni, Vice President of Worldwide Alliances at Oracle; Ashish Mohindroo, Vice President Cloud Product Marketing—PaaS at Oracle; Phil Regnault, Senior Vice President, Marketing & Alliances at Hitachi Consulting; and Michael Broberg, Vice President Technology Strategy at Hitachi Consulting.

The General Session presentation examines the importance of a strategy, plan and roadmap for successfully moving to the Cloud. In this two-part session, Oracle and Hitachi show how together they can help organizations shape their industry, be leaders in their markets, and change the world. The session discusses the broader organizational impacts of the Cloud, key components of a successful Cloud strategy and best practices in execution.

"The Cloud is disrupting IT providers and how organizations procure, deploy, consume, and use computing resources. As more companies consider the Oracle Cloud to gain agility and scalability, they realize there are many factors to take into account," said Phil Regnault, Senior Vice President at Hitachi Consulting. "As a solution-first company, we help organizations find the best in the Oracle Cloud solution to accelerate their business goals. We also provide value-added solutions that leverage SaaS, IaaS and PaaS to enable digital transformation that drives game-changing benefits across the organization," added Regnault.

"Today's enterprise IT environments often include a mix of disparate applications. Many companies require a strategic roadmap to determine which assets should move to the Cloud, the timing of the move, resource requirements, and governance for the data flowing in and out of the cloud," said Camillo Speroni, Vice President of Worldwide Alliances, Oracle. "All of these factors need to be taken into account when preparing for the Cloud. With so many options and Cloud-based solutions available, these decisions can be quite overwhelming without the involvement of an experienced Oracle Cloud Premier Partner such as Hitachi Consulting."

"The Oracle Cloud brings considerable computing power and scalability that previously only the largest organizations could afford. To meet the needs of our customers, we created disruptive pricing models to match as-a-service delivery based on results, value provided, or use, rather than who owns what," said Mike Broberg, Vice President of Consulting Services at Hitachi Consulting.
