TriNet's swift move to OCI with Astute
TriNet is a professional employer organization (PEO) that provides small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with full-service HR solutions. They offer services such as payroll administration, health benefits, employment law compliance, and risk reduction. TriNet aims to support the growth of SMBs and empower their employees.
The Challenge
TriNet, initially on a cloud migration path with AWS, confronted significant performance and technology obstacles, particularly when transitioning their Oracle Exadata databases. Their interactions at Oracle CloudWorld and the evident cost benefits of moving to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) over maintaining collocated data centers further solidified their decision to pivot towards OCI.

Key Challenges for TriNet:
- Performance and technology issues with AWS.
- Difficulties in migrating Oracle Exadata databases to AWS hardware.
- OpenStack infrastructure out of support and needing upgrade
- Challenges with Kubernetes on OpenStack
- Desire to have a complete infrastructure as code solution
