OR Oracle Manufacturing Global

Renesas Electronics

Data Lake / Data Warehouse Modernization · System Migration

Renesas, a global semiconductor company supplying microcontrollers, analog, power, and SoC products for automotive, industrial, IoT, and infrastructure markets, needed to retire aging on-premises Oracle Database hardware while preserving low-latency database performance for global engineering, manufacturing, and supply-chain applications.

Global semiconductor manufacturer with operations across Asia, Europe, and Americas

Solution

Renesas Electronics, a global semiconductor manufacturer, migrated database workloads from on-premises Exadata Cloud@Customer to Oracle Exadata Database Service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to achieve greater global elasticity and low-latency access for users across multiple continents. The migration enabled headquarters in Japan and design centers in Germany to experience consistent sub-millisecond latency through OCI's cross-region networking and distributed architecture, supporting 24/7 global operations with improved performance and reduced infrastructure management burden.

Data flow

Database queries from Japan HQ and Germany design centers distributed across OCI regions via cross-region networking; query results return with minimal latency; semiconductor design and IoT application data stored centrally with regional caching.
