Their situation

7-Eleven has built a strong global brand reputation for providing accessibility, availability, and convenience for their customers and operates 24/7, 365 days a year.

7-Eleven’s warehouse management system location was susceptible to severe storms given climate change. As a critical component of their overall IT platform, they had a need to reduce the Business Continuity Disaster Recovery (BCDR) risks posed to its systems and operations. The main warehouse in particular, located in Manila, plays a critical role in ensuring the country’s 1,000 stores are kept operational.

The Oracle databases consolidated critical transactional data from all of the 1,000 stores. Given their current risk profile, they made a decision to upgrade their data infrastructure to minimise business risk, and automate to improve resource utilisation.

7-Eleven required a resilient and proven DR solution that aligned with their existing investments in Oracle infrastructure.
