Case Study: S&P Global Ratings achieves high-performance, highly available Oracle database migration to AWS with FlashGrid

S&P Global Ratings deploys new Oracle RAC clusters in 2 hours with FlashGrid

S&P Global Ratings faced the challenge of migrating dozens of mission-critical Oracle databases from their high-performance Oracle Exadata systems to AWS. They needed a new platform that could deliver similar performance and high availability SLAs in the cloud without sacrificing either. They selected FlashGrid as their new platform.

FlashGrid implemented a solution for S&P Global Ratings based on its engineered cloud system featuring Oracle RAC. The architecture used two active-active nodes across AWS availability zones for maximum uptime and combined local NVMe SSD with EBS storage for high throughput and large capacity. Infrastructure-as-Code automation made deployments simple and fast. As a result, S&P Global Ratings now runs high-performance databases in AWS, with the ability to deploy a new proven cluster in only two hours.
