Case Study: Austrian Ministry of National Defense and Sport achieves IT autonomy and improved mission-critical performance with Oracle University and Oracle Exadata

The Austrian Ministry of National Defense and Sport Ensures Autonomy of IT Systems Management Thanks to Flexible Learning Solution

The Austrian Ministry of National Defense and Sport (BMLVS) needed to ensure autonomous, mission‑critical IT operations for its armed forces while transitioning to modern engineered systems. The ministry required a flexible learning program that kept database administrators and developers’ skills up to date, supported a hardware refresh with accurate capacity and performance planning, and offered private training options to protect military secrecy.

BMLVS engaged Oracle University as its exclusive training partner, combining Private Event classroom sessions, pre‑course consultations, Unlimited Learning subscriptions, training‑on‑demand and Oracle Learning Streams to deliver tailored, on‑demand and secure learning. This approach enabled smooth, incident‑free deployment of two half‑rack Oracle Exadata machines, improved database availability and application performance, strengthened storage forecasting, and gave IT teams the confidence and skills to manage systems independently and validate technology choices before purchase.
