MONETA bank in the Czech Republic ranks as the fourth-largest financial institution, with 1.5 million clients and a network of 160 branches.

In 2016, MONETA implemented two Exadata Quarter Racks on its premises as a crucial component of its IT infrastructure plan. The installation was expanded in 2021 by purchasing two additional Exadata Quarter Racks. It resulted in rapid growth but increased the need for more storage and database resources.

Making a decision to acquire another on-premises database or move to the cloud was difficult. Moreover, they needed help in maintaining low latency between their database engines. As a result, they needed to place their Operational Data Store nearer to the internet and branch applications as much as possible.
