# OCI Deal Accelerator — Business Case # Demo: PharmaCorp Mexico — ExaCS migration from on-prem Exadata X6 # Follows exact schema expected by oci_bizcase_gen.py business_case: customer_name: "PharmaCorp Mexico" prepared_by: "Carlos Mendoza — Solutions Architect" date: "2026-04-12" executive_summary: > PharmaCorp Mexico operates 3 mission-critical Oracle databases (EBS R12, SAP, DW) on aging Exadata X6 hardware. The hardware refresh quote is $1.8M and locks the company into 5 more years of on-prem operations with no DR capability. Migration to OCI ExaCS X11M reduces annual infrastructure costs by 61% ($1.75M over 3 years), adds cross-region DR (RPO<15min, RTO<1h), and resolves the pending SOX audit finding on automated patching. drivers: primary: "hardware_refresh_avoidance" urgency: "HW refresh due in 6 months — must decide now or commit $1.8M" cost_of_inaction: financial: "$2.88M over 3yr: $1.8M HW refresh + $300K/yr support + $80K/yr DC costs" operational: "No DR today — single site, single point of failure for EBS production" strategic: "SOX audit finding pending: manual quarterly patching is non-compliant" tco: horizon_years: 3 current_state: annual_infrastructure: 600000 annual_licensing: 220000 annual_operations: 60000 annual_downtime_cost: 50000 annual_compliance_cost: 30000 breakdown: - item: "Exadata X6 depreciation + refresh amortization" annual: 600000 - item: "Oracle DB EE Support & Maintenance" annual: 220000 - item: "DBA patching + infra management (part-time)" annual: 60000 - item: "Data center (power, cooling, space)" annual: 80000 proposed_oci: migration_one_time: 50000 annual_cloud_consumption: 278400 annual_licensing: 0 annual_operations: 20000 annual_downtime_cost: 0 annual_compliance_cost: 0 breakdown: - item: "ExaCS X11M Queretaro (Prod, BYOL)" annual: 98400 - item: "ExaCS X11M Sao Paulo (DR Standby, BYOL)" annual: 98400 - item: "FastConnect 10Gbps Dual" annual: 36720 - item: "OCI Vault + Monitoring + Storage" annual: 30000 - item: "Reduced DBA operations (automated patching)" annual: 20000 - item: "Migration project (one-time, amortized Y1)" annual: 50000 savings: annual: 661600 three_year: 1749600 pct: 61 roi: three_year_roi_pct: 3400 payback_months: 1 total_investment: 50000 annual_net_benefit: 661600 notes: > ROI based on 3-year TCO comparison. 1-month payback driven by immediate elimination of HW refresh commitment ($1.8M avoided).

The alternative (HW refresh at $1.8M) costs more and leaves DR + compliance gaps unresolved. next_steps: - "Board approval with TCO presentation — May 2026" - "Provision OCI tenancy + ExaCS in Queretaro — June 2026" - "Start FastConnect provisioning with partner — June 2026" - "EBS customization inventory and Pre-Prod testing — June 2026" - "Production cutover — September 2026" roadmap: total_duration: "16 weeks (May — September 2026)" phases: - name: "Board Approval" duration: "2 weeks" investment: 0 description: "Present TCO + risk analysis to board" - name: "Foundation (networking + ExaCS)" duration: "4 weeks" investment: 15000 description: "Provision OCI tenancy, ExaCS, FastConnect" - name: "EBS Migration + Data Guard" duration: "6 weeks" investment: 25000 description: "Migrate EBS R12 with ZDM, configure Data Guard to Sao Paulo" - name: "SAP + DW Migration" duration: "4 weeks" investment: 10000 description: "Migrate remaining databases, RMAN backup for DW" - name: "Cutover + Decommission" duration: "2 weeks" investment: 0 description: "Production cutover, decommission Exadata X6"
