Both winning projects involved modernizing mission-critical systems using Oracle's newest multicloud database services on Microsoft Azure and AWS. In North America, Apps Associates migrated a global entertainment company's Oracle E-Business Suite financial environment to Oracle AI Database@Azure. The company said the project was an early deployment of Oracle EBS on the newly introduced service and required close collaboration with [Oracle](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00000u9/oracle) to design and validate an architecture without an established public reference. Completed in seven months, ahead of schedule and within budget, the project achieved 99.999% uptime for finance systems, at least 30% average performance improvement, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual operational savings. In EMEA, Apps Associates helped a global mobility provider modernize its reservation platform using Oracle AI Database@AWS. The work included migrating a 35 TB primary database supporting more than 1,400 application servers while preserving the customer's existing AWS application environment. The solution delivered up to four times faster performance and was architected to support 99.995% availability under Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture, with rolling patching eliminating planned database maintenance downtime. "Our teams brought Oracle's newest multicloud services into production across two regions and two different cloud platforms, supporting mission-critical systems where performance and business continuity are essential," said Adrian King, CEO of Apps Associates. ## Apps Associates' Finalist Work in AI and Analytics The five finalist recognitions covered global and regional categories.

As a finalist for Fusion Data Intelligence (North America), the firm helped a global medical device manufacturer reduce a key sales reporting cycle from more than 15 days to 5–6 days while halving the resources required for that reporting process.
