Discuss the benefits that can be realized using Oracle Cloud and how IBM works with their clients to continue transformation efforts to increase revenue, access, transparency and reduce costs.

Presented by Deborah Bates, IBM Partner, CPCU, MBA, PMP®

This session is part of the Quest Spring 2022 Learning Series: Transformation and Modernization. View the additional series sessions here.

Learn why IBM clients trust Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for their mission-critical business. Discover how to improve performance and security, while reducing costs for your enterprise and performance-intensive applications with help from Oracle and IBM Services. Mohinder Mahal is going to discuss what’s possible and how to get there.

Let’s discuss why OCI represents the best option for moving data and all workloads(not just Oracle apps). Find out how IBM can implement and manage every aspect of your migration to Oracle cloud.

Better understand how the benefits of the modernization are quantifiable and include improved application management, reduced costs for maintenance and operations, enhanced security and ERP scalability during peak loads.

Building a high-performance infrastructure is challenging, but organizations don’t need to face the risks of a cloud migration by themselves. In fact, a recent Gartner analysis revealed that by 2025, 85 percent of large organizations will have engaged external services providers to migrate applications to the cloud, up from 43 percent in 2019. IBM has been an Oracle partner for more than 30 years and a prominent managed services provider for over 20 years. These decades of experience have generated market-leading processes, knowledge and unparalleled insight into the design, build and deployment of cloud solutions. We’re committed to creating world-class solutions for organizations looking to upgrade their infrastructure with Oracle Cloud Solutions. “Combining expert professional services from IBM and Oracle helps our joint clients improve performance and security, while significantly reducing costs to run their enterprise applications. With Oracle’s Gen 2Cloud Infrastructure, implemented and managed by IBM Services, customers are able to shift their spend from maintenance and focus their own people on digitally-driven innovation.”

•An effective way to leverage emerging technologies to solve some common complex problems which are currently being done manually. A cool way to utilize ML/AI along with Natural Language processing to scan large volumes of text. The primary goal is to identify Keywords and frequency of keywords that relate to diseases using tokenization and Lemmatization models. Opensource Models like FuzzyWuzzy logic and Document Frequency Terms (DFT) were extensively used.
•Our Business Operations at Kaiser captures long texts and unstructured data for each research subject (about 6000 to 10000 of them a year) that they work on. This unstructured data is captured in long text fields and sometimes runs into multiple pages for each subject. We created models to scan through volumes of texts, identify Keywords using python Spacy models, and have the models predict the area of and type of study.
•Tools used: Python, SQL, Oracle Cloud Analytics, Oracle Cloud reporting, and Data Science services from Oracle
