Lots (2)

  • EBS DBA Support

    EBS DBA Support Home Group is inviting tender responses for the Oracle Database Administration and OCI estate Management elements of the Linux based Oracle e-Business Suite (EBS) system and all its related servers. Home Group's Oracle e-Business Suite Estate is hosted in OCI and in addition to the core System Database and Applications Servers it also contains VMs for the Enterprise Command Centre, Learning Content Server, APEX (Oracle Application Express), IPA (Identity Policy and Audit), TFTP (for hosting Taleo Recruitment integration files) and an external facing Oracle Supplier Portal. The requirement is to provide a service that will cover all day to day (business as usual) support requirements for the aforementioned systems from a database, operating system and OCI Platform point of view. This will include the routine administration of the systems to maintain their security, stability and performance, whilst also serving the requirements of the business to provide typical ad-hoc and planned Oracle Database Administration (DBA), Linux Operating System (O/S) and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Administration services. The production systems are mission critical and as such Home Group will require that the service makes allowance for this, ensuring that the systems are proactively covered for P1 (System Unavailable) situations with issues resolved as they occur within the agreed Service Levels of Support or preferably, that they are prevented by active monitoring with pro-active remedial actions. Further details are specified within the Specification document.
