Elire Spotlight Session – Path to Cloud: Creating Your Cloud Roadmap 

Choosing to move from PeopleSoft to Oracle Cloud is no small feat. PeopleSoft continues to deliver new functionality and an updated user experience, making it possible to capture the most value from your PeopleSoft Application, while also making decisions that will support your Migration to the Cloud.  

The Journey to Cloud can be understood in three main “days”:   

  • Day 0 – Maximizing your On-Prem Application & laying the foundation to make a future Migration to Cloud easier  
  • Day 1 – Making your move into the Cloud with the strategy that works best for your organization  
  • Day 2 – Optimizing Oracle Cloud for increased cloud adoption and value  

This spotlight session will provide the framework to identify where your organization is on your cloud journey and actions you can take at each stop (even pre-9.2!) to avoid limiting decisions – while also getting the most out of PeopleSoft and setting your organization up for success in the Cloud.  

In this session, SaaS COE Lead Chris Costakes, On-premise COE Lead Jeff Hilliard, and Service Execution Pillar Lead Richard Merrill will review key decision criteria for each step of your path to cloud journey. This spotlight session will address common barriers you may encounter, PeopleSoft to Cloud accelerators to simplify the Cloud transition, and realistic business process and technology choices your organization will face along the path of cloud maturity.
