Oracle and Google Cloud Forge Multicloud Alliance to Accelerate Application Modernization
Oracle
and
Google
Cloud
have
unveiled
a
strategic
partnership
aimed
at
offering
customers
a
seamless
integration
of
Oracle
Cloud
Infrastructure
(OCI)
and
Google
Cloud
services.
This
collaboration
is
designed
to
accelerate
application
migrations
and
modernization
efforts,
according
to
Oracle
blog.
Multicloud
Connectivity
and
Database
Services
The
partnership
will
introduce
Google
Cloud’s
Cross-Cloud
Interconnect,
initially
available
in
11
global
regions.
This
service
will
allow
customers
to
deploy
general-purpose
workloads
without
incurring
cross-cloud
data
transfer
charges.
Additionally,
a
new
offering,
Oracle
Database@Google
Cloud,
will
be
launched
later
this
year.
This
service
aims
to
provide
top-tier
Oracle
database
and
network
performance
with
parity
in
features

pricing
compared
to
OCI.
Oracle
Database@Google
Cloud
will
enable
enterprises
across
various
industries—including
financial
services,
healthcare,
retail,
and
manufacturing—to
leverage
Oracle
database
services
directly
within
Google
Cloud
datacenters.
This
move
is
expected
to
streamline
cloud
migration
processes,
modernize
IT
environments,
and
tap
into
Google
Cloud’s
infrastructure
and
AI
capabilities.
