This event was organized to commemorate the recent completion of S-Oil’s IT infrastructure data center migration and to announce the launch of the integrated ITO project being pursued by both companies. The event, held the previous day at the Samsung SDS Sangam Data Center, was attended by key management from both companies, including S-Oil President Ryu Yeol and Samsung SDS President Lee Junhee.

S-Oil signed an integrated ITO contract with Samsung SDS last year and, starting in March this year, has selected Samsung SDS as its exclusive integrated IT operations provider for the next three years.

Samsung SDS will provide comprehensive IT services, including application and IT infrastructure operations, security, IT diagnostics, and cloud migration consulting.

In particular, for the first time in about 10 years, S-Oil completed the relocation of its major IT infrastructure to the Samsung SDS Data Center, enhancing system stability and operational efficiency. This also laid the groundwork for transitioning to a cloud-based IT environment in the future.

Through this project, S-Oil plans to establish a stable IT operations system and accelerate its digital transformation.

Ryu Yeol, President of S-Oil, stated, "The data center migration and the launch of the integrated ITO project will serve as an opportunity to further advance S-Oil’s IT infrastructure operations. We will continue to strengthen our stable IT operations foundation and actively pursue digital innovation in cooperation with Samsung SDS."

Lee Junhee, President of Samsung SDS, said, "Through the integrated ITO project with S-Oil, we will support stable IT service operations, while also actively facilitating the transition to a cloud-based IT environment and driving digital innovation."
