The question for CIOs and application leaders becomes ‘what to do about it?’ Do you eat the cost by tightening your belt or cutting investments in new technologies and innovations?

We answer lingering questions such as: Can you justify Oracle support costs if the support value doesn’t improve? Is it time to reexamine the link between your IT strategy and business outcomes? Are you able to retain your top IT talent, especially in the face of price increases? Is it time to consider third-party support services to escape a vendor-driven roadmap?
