Moving from IBM Mainframe to Oracle RAC on Azure with FlashGrid
February 12, 2024

The rate at which organizations move their data infrastructure away from on-prem continues to increase (as industry reports show). This includes FlashGrid’s customer, EDF, the UK’s biggest supplier of zero-carbon electricity with over 60 years of experience running nuclear power stations.
FlashGrid’s latest case study shows how EDF combined a migration from IBM Mainframe to Azure Cloud whilst upgrading a mission-critical system and implementing Oracle RAC on Azure. It’s an impressive feat.
EDF’s team underwent one-to-one training with FlashGrid and were able to spearhead their transition to cloud computing. It is a pleasure to work with the talented engineers, project managers, and DBAs at EDF.”
