Case Study: Multinet Pakistan achieves 30% lower customer operating costs and faster time-to-market with Oracle

Multinet Pakistan Reduces Customers’ Operating Costs by 30%, Accelerates Time to Market, and Enhances Competitiveness

Multinet Pakistan, a Karachi‑based data and voice communications provider with a multilayered 11,000 km fiber network serving midsize B2B customers in over 107 cities, needed a flexible, reliable and cost‑effective public‑cloud offering. The company’s challenge was to lower customer operating costs (notably high energy costs from unreliable power), ensure business continuity, and deliver innovative, scalable virtualization services to stay competitive in a price‑sensitive market.

Working with Oracle and partner Premier Systems, Multinet deployed an integrated virtualization platform using Sun Server X2‑4/X3‑2 hardware, Oracle VM for x86, Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance and Enterprise Manager. The solution cut customers’ power costs by 30%, removed virtualization license overhead, automated provisioning and management to reduce labor needs, provided scalable high‑availability storage, and accelerated time to market—improving operational efficiency and competitiveness for Multinet and its midsize customers.
