Oracle E-Business Extended Managed Services

Oracle E-Business R12.1 Support ended in December 2021. From January 2022, Oracle will no longer provide new fixes and security updates. Customers running Oracle E-Business R12.1 will potentially face a drop in their Oracle support services, even when they continue to pay Oracle's support fees.

Our Extended Managed Services provides support for customers who are no longer receiving Oracle’s Premier software maintenance and support services. For customers using Oracle E-Business R12.1 post-2021 and maintaining an Oracle Sustaining Support & Maintenance subscription, we will deliver a subset of our Extended Managed Services to fill the gaps left by Oracle’s Sustaining Support. This is delivered as a Managed Service and benefits from our UK delivery, ITIL-based processes, 24/7 Service Desk, Service Management, and comprehensive SLAs including incident resolution times.

What does the Extended Managed Service include?

Support from January 2022 for all severities of incidents relating to customisations, performance issues, data corruption, integrations, standard BI Publisher & Oracle reports output and product fixes for Oracle EBS 12.1.3 and the underlying technology stack.

  • EBS for UK or/& Ireland organisations with an English language installation only 
  • R12.1.3 of Oracle e-Business Suite with recent CPU and RUPs applied (< 12 months)

The European Bank Safeguards its Oracle Applications with Claremont's Security Solution

The EBRD makes extensive use of Oracle technology for its three hundred separate databases. A security audit identified that changes were required to ensure these Oracle systems were kept secure. Claremont designed and implemented a solution that would connect all ERBD’s Oracle databases to its corporate identity solution – Microsoft Active Directory (AD) – where its users’ network logons were stored. This would ensure that Oracle users were authenticated against AD, password maintenance was enforced, and each user required only one username and password for multiple applications.
