As we can see, the parameters in which OPN demonstration and development licenses can be used are quite rigid. Customers who do not regularly check the restrictions imposed in their OPN agreements with Oracle may lose sight of what is allowed under membership and may accidentally provide „completely around“ Oracle by being wary of what is allowed. Oracle corrects the error during a review by levying additional licensing fees to resolve the resulting compliance issues. OPN licenses can be used to provide technical support to an end user, but only if there is a distribution agreement between the partner and Oracle. This allows a partner to provide support for Oracle programs that are packed with their applications, and provides a channel that allows Oracle to collect support fees. OPN licenses cannot be used for technical support without an appropriate distribution agreement. The number of isv companies has increased considerably. In 2018, McBain has identified about 100,000 SVIs worldwide, compared to the approximately 10,000 ISV partners that did business in 2008. He predicted that this figure would reach one million by 2027, fueled by THE ability of ISVs to provide highly customized software to their customers. The modernized PartnerNetwork oracle is a customer-focused first cloud partnership program that accelerates the transition to the cloud and enables an exceptional customer experience and business results. Manhattan Associates transferred its supply chain solutions to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, resulting in 50% savings on the application and database layer compared to previous cloud solutions.
As the cloud computing model becomes more widespread, ISVs have increasingly targeted the cloud as a vehicle for software delivery by offering products based on saaS (Software as a Service). With this deployment method, an ISV can sell its software in a public or cloud cloud market. For example, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Salesforce AppExchange. When cybersecurity giant McAfee had to evolve with its customers, when these huge amounts of data were relocating to the cloud, Oracle Cloud`s quality-priced features were more than the same distance.
