| The fashion industry faces a conundrum: The market demands new styles, but clothing overproduction can create waste and harm the environment. For Yamamay, an Italy-based producer and retailer of underwear, beachwear, and other clothing, cloud-based analytics provides the answer to quickly understand demand and balance this with supply. |

| There can be a strong economic case for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives, letting both financial and social sustainability flourish. Who’s on the hook to create that framework? Yes, we’re looking at you, CFO—68% of businesses want finance leaders to take responsibility for ESG, Accenture finds. Here’s a framework that might help. |

| Developers now can use GraalVM Enterprise Edition directly in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Code Editor and Cloud Shell at no additional cost. This means they can edit and deploy high-performance Java, Spring Boot, and Micronaut application code from a browser without installation and configuration. |

| An important part of creating an inclusive workplace is providing accommodations so that talented people with disabilities can thrive at a company. One way to gauge how your company’s doing with that is the Disability Equality Index, a benchmarking tool from the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and Disability:IN. For the third straight year, Oracle achieved a 100 out of 100 score on the index. |
