Ricoh Company has partnered with Rimini Street to optimize its current Oracle EBS and Oracle Database environments, as well as to support its next-generation ERP strategy. The Japan-based imaging company had been running its transactional processes on multiple instances of Oracle systems but wanted to move away from Oracle products. To ensure data protection during this digital transformation, Ricoh turned to Rimini Protect, a security measure that can be quickly deployed against threats without needing code changes.
Keisuke Hamanaka, Deputy General Manager of Process, IT and Data Management at Ricoh Company, stated that after evaluating various service providers, Rimini Street was chosen for its high-quality support and protection tailored to the Japanese market at a cost that aligned with their financial goals. As Ricoh Company prepared for its next ERP change, the focus was on maintaining business continuity and data protection. Rimini Support and Rimini Protect were seen as a winning combination that provided peace of mind for Ricoh, ensuring reliable security for critical data in their Oracle databases supporting EBS.
Rimini Support offers software maintenance services through Advanced Application and Middleware Security (AAMS), extending the lifespan of outdated enterprise technology without the need for expensive upgrades to new platforms. Not ready to transition to cloud technology, Ricoh Company was interested in Rimini Street’s Advanced Database Security (ADS) service, which offers protection for unsupported software versions.
The collaboration between Ricoh Company and Rimini Street provided real-time zero-day vulnerability protection with minimal system downtime. With Rimini Support in place, Ricoh’s outdated Oracle systems continued to operate efficiently, saving the company significant resources that would have been spent on a major EBS upgrade. Hamanaka highlighted the benefits of the partnership, emphasizing the cost savings and operational efficiency achieved through working with Rimini Street.
