For the past 60 years, Britam Kenya has offered a range of financial services, including insurance, asset management, and property development, to meet diverse client needs. The company grappled with on-premises infrastructure and rapidly evolving technologies that could threaten customer satisfaction, revenue, and productivity. Britam leaders wanted to bolster data loss prevention and reduce system downtime, so they decided to migrate applications and storage to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Using OCI Interconnect for Azure, Britam increased efficiency, reliability, and low-latency communication with a unified multicloud experience. OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery automated failover and failback for critical systems across OCI regions and availability domains. The company eliminated manual errors and helped to ensure RTO in less than 60 minutes and RPOs under 15 minutes for 3X faster resiliency.
