AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Oracle Health has been recognized as a leader in the IDC MarketScape: U.S. Healthcare Data Platform for Providers 2024-25 Vendor Assessment1. The report notes: “With a strong emphasis on interoperability, Oracle Health Data Intelligence aims to empower customers with access to data from various sources — clinical, claims, social determinants, pharmacy, and real-world data (Omics and De-ID) without the cost or complexity of integrating disparate systems.” By integrating and analyzing data from a wide array of sources, Oracle Health Data Intelligence provides an EHR-agnostic cloud platform that enables providers to make more informed decisions that help improve care quality, operational efficiency, and financial performance. The solution also dramatically simplifies deployment for IT teams seeking a complete and pre-built lakehouse platform.

The IDC report evaluated 15 technology providers that have healthcare data platforms for providers in the U.S. The report adds that, “Oracle Health’s integration of AI and predictive analytics across its platform is a powerful asset for its customers as they focus on delivering more personalized care.” The report continues, “With a continued emphasis on innovation, the company remains committed to advancing healthcare through data-driven intelligence and operational excellence, making it a key player in the healthcare landscape.”

“With its single, unified solution, Oracle Health can significantly reduce the cost and complexity of deploying a health data platform,” said Mutaz Shegewi, senior research director, worldwide healthcare provider platforms and technologies, IDC. “Oracle Health Data Intelligence can integrate and analyze data from multiple sources at scale to help healthcare systems meet operational, clinical, and financial objectives while reducing the administrative burden on caregivers.”

Built to take advantage of the security, performance, and scalability of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Health Data Intelligence is a suite of cloud infrastructure, analytics, and applications. The suite enables a broad range of healthcare and government stakeholders to use data from across the healthcare ecosystem without the cost and complexity of trying to integrate disparate data and systems on their own. It provides a fully managed intelligent data lake with built-in AI and data analytics capabilities and is ideal for a broad range of use cases, including providers building better population health strategies and optimizing value-based care (VBC), as well as academic medical centers seeking to accelerate their research and improve outcomes. Oracle Health Data Intelligence continuously and securely integrates patient data from a wide range of sources—clinical, claims, revenue cycle, social determinants, pharmacy, and more—to deliver insight across back office and point-of-care workflows. As a result, providers and policy makers gain a more complete view of their patients and populations and benefit from suggested next best actions to optimize care and financial performance. The subsequent actions and outcomes are fed back into Oracle Health Data Intelligence to improve future insights and recommendations.

The report notes that “Oracle Health Data Intelligence’s deployment extends across various healthcare providers, research institutions, pharma and CROs, government agencies, and organizations seeking to optimize VBC delivery and regulatory compliance. Notable collaborations, such as the partnership with Advocate Health, highlight the solution’s impact on improving the quality of care while managing costs.”

“With built-in AI and end-to-end analytics, Oracle Health Data Intelligence constantly delivers insights that enable healthcare organizations to be more proactive and data-driven in their approach to improving patient care, closing care gaps, and driving financial performance,” said Seema Verma, executive vice president and general manager, Oracle Health and Life Sciences. “Equally important, this single, unified data platform will be the foundation for innovation and success in the coming era of agentic AI.”

MARRAKECH, Morocco, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA), an independent and non-political anti-corruption organisation with over 190 member anti-corruption authorities (ACAs) worldwide, will co-host IAACA Annual Conference 2026 in Marrakech, Morocco next month together with the Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong, China (ICAC) and the National Authority for Probity, Prevention and Fight Against Corruption of Morocco (INPPLC) to chart a path for the global graft fight and explore cutting-edge approaches to tackle emerging corruption challenges.

Themed “Building on 20 Years of Legacy: Drawing Strength from the Past, Guarding Global Integrity for the Future”, the international event will not only mark the 20th anniversary of the IAACA, but also provide a dynamic forum for IAACA members to exchange insights and enhance co-operation.

Calling on international counterparts to participate in the conference scheduled for November 25, IAACA President Mr Woo Ying-ming, who also serves as ICAC Commissioner, said that “As the IAACA marks its 20th anniversary, the conference will bring together global anti-corruption community at a pivotal moment for collective action.

Viettel moves 100 million subscribers to home-grown cloud-native charging in three months – with zero downtime

Published

By

HANOI, Vietnam, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Viettel High Technology Industries Corporation (Viettel High Tech), part of Viettel Group, has migrated more than 100 million subscribers and some 5,000 tariff plans at Viettel, Vietnam’s largest mobile operator, to vOCS 4.0, its in-house cloud-native charging system. The three-month cutover ran on a live national network with no service disruption.

Replacing a charging system is one of the riskiest projects an operator can undertake, which is why many stick with legacy platforms. Viettel High Tech reduced the risk through real-time data synchronization, parallel running and a phased cutover, with instant rollback at every stage.

The project won the Telecom Review Excellence Awards 2026 prize for Best Technology Deployment in Asia, a first for a Vietnamese company.

What it means for operators:

Scale: more than 300,000 transactions per second at latency below 5 milliseconds, across 2G–5G and fixed services on one platformLower cost: up to 50% less hardware investment than the previous generation, by sharing infrastructure with the networkAgility: new tariff plans in hours instead of days, new features three times faster and deployments about 30% fasterResilience: two active data centers about 2,000 km apart and automatic recovery in under two minutes

Viettel High Tech developed every core layer in-house, from a telecom-grade cloud-native platform and NFV-MANO orchestration to real-time charging, subscriber and balance management.

“Passing rigorous tests of real-time self-diagnosis and self-recovery is what allows an operator to keep its promise of 24/7 service to customers,” said Luu Manh Ha, CEO of Viettel Networks, which operates the system on Viettel’s network in Vietnam. “Above all, owning the charging system means an operator is not dependent on foreign vendors – it safeguards digital sovereignty and preserves business flexibility.”

“The charging system is where an operator’s business strategy turns into revenue in real time,” said Nguyen Minh Quang, CEO of Viettel High Tech. “We believe vOCS 4.0 is ready to help operators worldwide capture the value of 5G and digital services.”

In 2017, vOCS 4.0’s predecessor, vOCS 3.0, replaced a foreign vendor’s platform for 90 million Viettel subscribers. Across both generations, vOCS serves more than 220 million subscribers in 11 countries. Viettel High Tech now offers vOCS 4.0 to operators worldwide.
