Every store, connected — in real time
We run retail on Oracle Cloud, streaming sales from every shop to the core in real time — so a lookup that used to take five minutes now returns instantly.
Retail decisions are only as good as how fresh the data is. When every store reports late, the head office is always looking at yesterday — so connecting the estate in real time, affordably, is the goal.
Business value — A live view of every store — instant lookups and current numbers for the people who decide.
Technical — Oracle Cloud Infrastructure with Oracle GoldenGate streaming sales data from every shop to the core.

Frequently asked questions
How current is store data once you connect the estate?
Real time. For Magrabi we streamed sales from every branch to the core with Oracle GoldenGate on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
What difference does that make day to day?
A lookup that used to take five minutes returns instantly, so head office is not deciding on yesterday’s numbers.
Do you stay on after the build?
Yes — we designed, built and then managed Magrabi’s OCI estate for three years.
