Case Study: MetrôRio achieves 35% lower IT costs and improved performance with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oracle Exadata Database Service

MetrôRio gains performance and cost saving benefits by moving to OCI

MetrôRio, the Rio de Janeiro subway operator, faced a severe financial challenge during the pandemic as ridership and revenue dropped sharply, forcing it to rebuild its back-office IT environment after separating from its former holding company. To keep its SAP ERP system running without heavy upfront investment, MetrôRio turned to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oracle Exadata Database Service.

Oracle implemented a migration of MetrôRio’s SAP ERP system to OCI, with support from SAP engineers and system integrator SERVICE IT. The move delivered faster response times, better scalability, and more than 99% uptime, while also helping MetrôRio cut costs by an estimated 35% over five years through predictable operating expenses instead of data center capital spend.
