Case Study: Pricerite Stores achieves one-hour database provisioning, real-time insights, and lower TCO with Oracle Database Cloud Service

Pricerite Provisions Database in One Hour Instead of Weeks, Gains Real-Time Insight, and Lowers Total Cost of Ownership with Platform as a Service

Pricerite Stores Ltd., Hong Kong’s largest home‑furnishing specialist with a broad retail and sourcing network, needed to scale its point‑of‑sale and warehouse systems to support growth, deliver real‑time sales and inventory insights for store managers, and speed up time‑to‑market by simplifying database provisioning and administration across on‑premises and private‑cloud environments.

By adopting Oracle Database Cloud Service and Oracle Database 12c In‑Memory, Pricerite now provisions databases in about one hour instead of weeks, runs analytic queries up to 5x faster, and gives managers real‑time visibility into store inventory. The move lowered total cost of ownership by shifting development and testing to the cloud, reduced administrative overhead through automated patching and backups, preserved existing staff skills for migrations, and accelerated application deployment and innovation.
