Enhancement Proposal – Oracle 19c with Exadata(on-prem) Support for MDM Version 11.6.0.12

Enhancement Proposal – Oracle 19c with Exadata(on-prem) Support for MDM Version 11.6.0.12

ANZ Bank is undertaking a strategic, enterprise-wide platform transformation in which all Oracle databases across the organisation are being migrated from Solaris to Oracle Exadata.

In line with this direction, we request IBM to consider enhancing and expanding its product support to include Oracle Exadata. Native and certified support for Exadata will be critical to ensure platform alignment, operational stability, performance optimisation, and long-term supportability as ANZ progresses with this migration.

This enhancement would enable the continued use of IBM products within ANZ’s future-state architecture while maintaining compliance with enterprise standards and vendor support requirements.

We would welcome an opportunity to discuss IBM’s roadmap and the feasibility of supporting Oracle Exadata.
