About the event

With over 10 years of AWS experience with mission-critical Oracle applications like E-Business Suite, Peoplesoft and JD Edwards in the cloud we are ready to reduce your TCO, increase your efficiency, drive innovation and transform your customer experiences. AWS and our Partners provide proven & reliable Migration and Modernization methodologies, services and programs for your Oracle Enterprise Applications. Increase the value of your Oracle applications, leverage automation and cloud native services to drive new efficiencies & innovation in your business.


JD Edwards users can greatly simplify the cost and complexity of ERP infrastructure management by moving to Cloud, freeing them to focus on innovation and revenue-generating initiatives. However, to fully capitalize on the flexibility, elasticity, automation, availability and breadth of services that the Public Cloud can offer, JD Edwards users must choose both the right Cloud Platform and the right Cloud Partner.


You're invited to join this Amazon Web Services (AWS) webinar with AWS Services Partner Forza Consulting on the drivers and benefits of running  JD Edwards on AWS.

 

We hope you can join us for this webinar and we look forward to welcoming you.
