Lyft Reimagines the Future of Transportation with Oracle
“ Oracle ’ s culture is all about innovation - It has been from the beginning . Forty years on and it is still leading the way .” That ’ s according to Trey Parsons , Group VP at Oracle ’ s Cloud Infrastructure Group .
“ Our mission statement is to help people , our clients and partners , see data in new ways , gain valuable insights and discover endless possibilities ” says Parsons .
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure ( OCI ) has created a platform for companies to innovate and Oracle ’ s own culture of innovation translates to the accounts that our Cloud Venture team covers : ‘ Unicorn ’, cloud native , high growth accounts .
Oracle ’ s four-year relationship with the ride share business , Lyft Inc . is a perfect example of how this brand of collaboration and partnership works .
“ Lyft is a ‘ cloud first ’ company ,” says Parsons . “ Oracle ’ s Enterprise Fusion ERP application is one of the best in the business . It is an integrated , scalable suite . Lyft has gone from running hundreds of thousands of transactions to billions . Oracle ’ s scalable platform played a fundamental role in achieving this .”
Lyft ’ s first collaboration with Oracle was by adopting its Fusion Accounting Hub . This was implemented in a record 4 months . They then successfully implemented Oracle Cloud Applications , Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse and Oracle Analytics Cloud .
When Lyft successfully implemented Oracle Cloud it had the capability to close its books in half the time and to significantly improve relevant processes .
