Google Cloud will offer Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database services and high-speed network interconnect with Oracle.
Oracle and Google Cloud have announced a partnership that gives customers the choice to combine Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Google Cloud technologies to help accelerate their application migrations and modernization.
Google Cloud’s Cross-Cloud Interconnect will be initially available for customer onboarding in 11 global regions, allowing customers to deploy general purpose workloads with no cross-cloud data transfer charges.
Later this year, a new offering, Oracle Database@Google Cloud, will be available with the highest level of Oracle database and network performance, along with feature and pricing parity with OCI.
Both companies will jointly go-to-market with Oracle Database@Google Cloud, benefitting enterprises globally and across multiple industries, including financial services, healthcare, retail, manufacturing and more.
“Customers want the flexibility to use multiple clouds,” said Larry Ellison, Oracle Chairman and CTO. “To meet this growing demand, Google and Oracle are seamlessly connecting Google Cloud services with the very latest Oracle Database technology. By putting Oracle Cloud Infrastructure hardware in Google Cloud datacenters, customers can benefit from the best possible database and network performance.”
“Oracle and Google Cloud have many joint enterprise customers,” said Sundar Pichai, CEO, Google and Alphabet. “This new partnership will help these customers use Oracle database and applications in concert with Google Cloud’s innovative platform and AI capabilities.”
The new multicloud capabilities are pitched as delivering a fully integrated experience for deploying, managing and using Oracle database instances within Google Cloud – along with the ability to move data and deploy new cloud native applications across both clouds.
Customers can benefit from:
- Flexible options to simplify and help accelerate migrating their Oracle databases to Google Cloud.
- A simplified purchasing and contracting experience.
- Unified customer experience and support from Google Cloud and Oracle.
- The simplicity, security, and latency of a unified operating environment (datacenter) within Google Cloud to deploy the entire portfolio of Oracle database services.
- Connecting their Oracle data with Google’s industry-leading AI services.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Google Cross-Cloud Interconnect gives customers the ability to deploy workloads across both OCI and Google Cloud regions with no cross-cloud data transfer charges.
Customers can begin onboarding in 11 cross-cloud interconnect regions – Australia East (Sydney), Australia South East (Melbourne), Brazil East (São Paulo), Canada South East (Montreal), Germany Central (Frankfurt), India West (Mumbai), Japan East (Tokyo), Singapore, Spain Central (Madrid), UK South (London), and US East (Ashburn) – expanding to more regions over time.
The collaboration provides a low-latency, high-throughput, private connection between two leading cloud providers, with seamless interoperability. This enables customers to:
- Innovate using the best combination of Oracle’s and Google Cloud’s services.
- Use a direct interconnection between OCI and Google Cloud.
- Run multiple Oracle applications.
- Build new cloud-native applications using Google Cloud and OCI technologies including Google Cloud’s enterprise-grade AI technologies.
