In view of the recent business shift due to Covid-19, many C-level executives have been tasked to revisit all initiatives and look into every facet of their businesses to discover what works, what doesn’t work and to discard any components deemed redundant or unnecessary. Here’s what Oracle Malaysia is doing in terms of its blockchain and other emerging technology initiatives.
According to a recent interview by Asia Blockchain Review’s Anil Prabha and Oracle Malaysia’s MD – Fitri Abdullah, said this year 2020 has been a very challenging year indeed.
Oracle is currently looking for ways to actively help their customers overcome business challenges. For example in Malaysia, they have many clients who are subscribed to the Oracle Cloud Solutions via cloud computing. Cloud has indeed become the new normal among many businesses in various industries.
