S-OIL said Tuesday it held a kickoff event with Samsung SDS to mark the full launch of their integrated ITO (IT outsourcing) project.
The event was organized to commemorate the recent completion of S-OIL’s IT infrastructure data center migration and to signal the start of the joint ITO effort. The gathering was held Monday at Samsung SDS’ Sangam data center, with S-OIL CEO Ryu Yeol and Samsung SDS CEO Lee Jun-hee among the executives attending.
The companies said they have successfully moved S-OIL’s key IT infrastructure to a Samsung SDS data center. The large-scale migration, the first in about 10 years, allowed S-OIL to reorganize its IT operating environment and strengthen system stability and operational efficiency. The move also laid groundwork for a future shift to a cloud-based IT environment, supporting faster digital transformation.
Ryu said the data center migration and the start of the integrated ITO project will be an opportunity to further advance S-OIL’s IT infrastructure operations. “Through cooperation with Samsung SDS, we will strengthen a stable foundation for IT operations and continue to drive digital innovation,” he said.
Lee said Samsung SDS will support stable IT service operations through the integrated ITO project and will actively back S-OIL’s transition to a cloud-based IT environment and its digital innovation efforts.
S-OIL signed an integrated ITO contract with Samsung SDS last year and selected Samsung SDS as its integrated IT outsourcing provider for three years starting in March 2026. Samsung SDS will provide services across IT operations, including application and IT infrastructure operations, security, IT diagnostics and cloud transition consulting.
