Wipro announces Oracle-powered SaaS platform

Bangalore, September 01: Wipro Technologies, global IT services business of Wipro Ltd, would offer ‘w-SaaS’, a platform, it said, for rapid Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) enablement of business applications using Oracle Grid Computing and Oracle application grid middleware for Independent Software vendors (ISVs).

The platform would help ISVs enable their ‘existing’ business applications to operate in SaaS model in a non-intrusive manner with minimal re-implementation, and enable the traditional single tenant application to operate in an efficient multi-tenant mode, Wipro said in a statement.

“This is expected to result in savings of up to 50 per cent of effort for SaaS enablement of existing applications, resulting in up to 10-20 per cent savings in the total cost of ownership”, the company said.

Oracle has worked with Wipro to offer its comprehensive technology stack to its ISV partners through this complete platform for accelerated SaaS enablement. Wipro would benefit from the increased SaaS market reach in collaboration with Oracle, it was stated.
