Exhibition Place modernizes business applications with Oracle Cloud
Canada’s largest convention, exhibition and event space, Exhibition Place, modernizes legacy apps using Oracle APEX on OCI Autonomous Database.
“Modernizing our 50+ custom line-of-business applications with Oracle Cloud has been a game-changer. We now have a reliable, scalable platform that supports our operations year-round—including our large, multivenue events. The speed of deployment and the simplicity of Oracle APEX delivered immediate improvements.”
Exhibition Place is Canada’s premier destination for conventions, exhibitions, events, and entertainment, hosting over 2,000 events and welcoming more than 5.5 million visitors annually. Exhibition Place faced growing challenges with their custom-built line-of-business applications. Built on on-premises Access databases, the applications were difficult to support and prone to performance reliability issues. Using Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing and the free, low-code Oracle APEX platform, the entire system was redeveloped and deployed. Exhibition Place now has a modern, reliable, and scalable platform that meets the operational demands of a landmark venue—delivering better performance, easier support, and a future-ready foundation for growth.
