Arlo Ensures Long-term Scalability and Security with Oracle EBS Migration to OCI

Arlo Technologies (Arlo) is an American company that makes wireless surveillance cameras. Prior to an initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in August 2018, the company was a brand of such products by Netgear, which retained majority control after the IPO.

Strategic Partnership: Arlo’s Cloud Journey with Centroid

Arlo faced the challenge of replacing their end-of-life data center hardware that stored Corporate Applications. To ensure the efficient maintenance of daily operations and accommodate future growth, the customer aimed to migrate their EBS environment to the cloud. Despite being content as a large AWS shop, they discovered that the options for cloud migration in their current state were cost-prohibitive and that EBS performed better and was more cost-effective in OCI (Oracle on Oracle).

As next steps, the client sought a partner to facilitate the Oracle relationship and offer additional solutions to address Arlo’s critical risks. Centroid emerged as an ideal partner, offering significant cost savings, deeper discounts, and flexible contracts through their exclusive Agg Buy model. Centroid effectively addressed any concerns, outlining the benefits of Oracle technology, emphasizing the rationale behind “oracle on oracle,” and providing a roadmap for migrating Oracle EBS, Agile, OBIEE, and Citrix VDI workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

To manage risks effectively, both teams collaborated closely to define the end-state architecture and BOM for hosting these applications in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
