Oracle multicloud overview (9:46)
  • Innovate with the combined power of Oracle and Microsoft

    Oracle Autonomous Database on Oracle Database@Azure offers new possibilities for running mission-critical applications.

  • Innovate with OCI Oracle Database services running in Google Cloud

    Build new cloud native apps using Google Cloud services, such as Google Kubernetes Engine and Google Vertex AI, with Oracle Autonomous Database.

  • Develop applications faster with Oracle and AWS

    Build new scalable microservices-based applications by combining Amazon EC2, Amazon EKS, and Amazon ECS with Oracle Database services to accelerate time to market for new features.

Explore multicloud use cases

Leverage services from two different cloud providers running alongside each other as native services in one cloud. This architecture eliminates the complexity and cost of moving large amounts of data. For example, when running in Azure or Google Cloud as a native service, Oracle Exadata Database Service and Autonomous Database can be combined with Microsoft Power BI or Google Cloud Vertex AI respectively to deliver the highest performance, availability, and scalability.
