Faced with business and IT challenges, Gallaudet University was distracted from its core mission which as to serve its student population and their global customers and partners.
Deliver new application features to assist students, faculty, and staff
Reduce dependence on contract labor
Implement Disaster Recovery solutions
Replace manual paper-based processes with automation
Gallaudet realized that its data center was no longer sufficient to handle its growing needs and tight budgets making the expansion impractical. Most urgently to Gallaudet’s planning, having a single data center running on-site applications didn’t provide adequate disaster recovery.

Lack of a Disaster Recovery Solution for mission-critical PeopleSoft applications
Aging data center infrastructure experiencing system failures
Behind on PeopleSoft application updates and fixes
After extensive analysis, Gallaudet University chose Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, based on projected improvements in security, performance, disaster recovery, and $600,000 in cost savings over 5 years.
Oracle Validated Solution Architecture
Fault-Tolerant, Highly-Available design
Disaster Recovery with Data Guard
PeopleSoft Cloud Manager and Terraform
