"Partnering with Cintra and AWS, we not only improved our analytics platform service levels but also freed up resources to focus on growth and innovation. Cintra’s Remapped optimized OracleDatabase@AWS solution enabled a rapid migration to AWS, allowing us to focus on modernization, innovation, and growth."

Chad Ellison – CTO, Zema Global

Problem

Zema Global, a leading financial services data management and analytics provider, faced stability and scalability issues with its mission critical 2 Petabyte  Oracle database platform,  impacting service levels. 

The organization needed to make a quick decision between further investing in the legacy platform or making an accelerated move to the AWS cloud while minimizing risk and business disruption.

Solutions

Cintra accelerated Zema through the OLA assessment and MAP migration programs to adopt ODB@AWS just weeks after ODB availability in July 2025,  enabling Zema to start testing in October and move forward confidently to production in November 2025. 

The accelerated migration was completed in just five months, restoring service levels and unlocked growth, freeing Zema to focus on data modernization and GenAI innovation.

Impact

  • 99.99% RAC on ODB availability, restoring platform confidence and protecting revenue and growth.

  • Remapped.ai license and infrastructure cost optimization, delivering 15% Oracle TCO savings. 

  • Enhanced customer experience with improved data processing and query performance on ODB@AWS, powered by AMD.

  • Savings and migration budgets re-directed to modernization, to accelerate database modernization from Oracle to Aurora PostgreSQL.
