Oracle is to open an Oracle Cloud Region in Chicago.
Continuing one of the fastest expansions of any major cloud provider, Oracle’s 41st global region and fourth in the U.S offers customers and partners based in the U.S. Midwest access to a wide range of cloud services to modernize their applications, innovate with data and analytics, and migrate mission-critical workloads from their data centers to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
“As the home to more than 20% of the Fortune 500, 60% of all U.S. manufacturing, and the world’s largest financial derivatives exchange, the U.S. Midwest is a global innovation hub across key industries,” said Clay Magouyrk, Executive Vice President, OCI.
“These industries are increasingly seeking secure cloud services to support their need for high-speed data transfer at ultra-low latency. We open the new Chicago region to help our Midwest customers and partners easily and securely move their mission-critical workloads to the cloud.”
The new Chicago region will offer over 100 OCI services and applications, including Oracle Autonomous Database, MySQL Heatwave, OCI Data Science, Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes and Oracle Analytics. These applications and services will help start-ups, mid-size, and enterprise teams harness data to uncover new business value and optimize applications without re-architecture.
