Case Study: Okamura achieves up to 60X faster data insights and 36% cost savings with Oracle Cloud (Autonomous Data Warehouse & Analytics Cloud)

Okamura speeds data insights up to 60X with Oracle Cloud

Okamura, a Japanese manufacturer of office furnishings and store displays, needed to modernize its decade‑old, on‑premises Oracle BI data‑analysis platform used by about 1,000 employees. The appliance‑based warehouse struggled to support planned business expansion and new use cases involving big data, AI/IoT and robotics while keeping operational overhead and costs under control.

Okamura migrated its analytics to Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse and Oracle Analytics Cloud on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, using autoscaling and fully managed services to eliminate routine database administration. The move cut data‑platform costs by 36%, boosted query and reporting performance by up to 60X, halved patch times, and enabled faster report generation—prompting consideration of moving additional on‑prem systems to OCI.
