Oracle is the only hyperscaler capable of
delivering 150+ AI and cloud services across public, dedicated, and
hybrid cloud environments, anywhere in the world
With built-in AI services, leading generative
AI models, and powerful AI infrastructure capabilities, Oracle
continues to be acknowledged for helping customers innovate while
addressing sovereign AI requirements
AUSTIN,
Texas, Oct. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle
continues to be named a Leader in the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant
for Strategic Cloud Platform Services and the 2024 Gartner Magic
Quadrant for Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure. Complimentary
copies of each report are available here and here.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a complete cloud
designed to run any workload, from AI to enterprise applications,
faster, more securely, and at a lower cost. OCI accelerates the
migrations of existing enterprise workloads, delivers better
reliability and performance for all applications, and offers the
complete services customers need to build innovative cloud
applications. OCI's distributed cloud approach helps customers
address the most stringent regulatory and sovereignty requirements
and allows them to combine services from multiple clouds to
optimize cost, functionality, and performance.
"We believe consistently being positioned in the Leaders
Quadrant reflects the global demand we're seeing for our AI and
cloud services," said Clay Magouyrk,
executive vice president, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. "With
consistent global pricing and a distributed cloud model, we're
giving customers the ability to optimize their cloud strategy
wherever they operate, however they want. Our fully integrated AI
capabilities combined with the industry's most powerful AI
infrastructure, enable our customers to innovate faster and drive
more meaningful outcomes."
A Cloud Platform That is Easy to Adopt
OCI simplifies
cloud adoption for customers with critical enterprise workloads by
enabling them to move to the cloud without the risks and costs of
re-platforming with services like OCI Compute Bare Metal and Oracle
Cloud VMware Solution. In addition, OCI is built to support all
types of workloads and offers infrastructure, platform, and
software as a service within a single unified cloud platform. With
OCI, customers can modernize their existing applications and
databases and innovate with AI and cloud-native application
development capabilities like OCI Generative AI Service, Oracle
Kubernetes Engine, and Oracle Autonomous Database.
The Full Cloud Where and How Customers Need It
With
Oracle's distributed cloud, customers can deploy OCI's AI and cloud
services at the edge, in their own datacenter, across clouds, or in
the public cloud. This can help customers address a variety of data
privacy, sovereign AI, and low latency requirements. Oracle Cloud
is available in more locations than any other hyperscaler, with 85
regions live and 77 planned, with each location offering AI and
cloud services as well as the same pricing, service level
agreements, and APIs. This enables customers, including those in
highly regulated markets such as financial services, healthcare,
communications, and government, to meet practically any use case
with OCI, including enterprise applications, cloud native
application development, analytics, AI, and IoT.
Recent distributed cloud innovations will give customers more
flexibility to scale down or scale up to meet their workload needs.
For example, a new OCI Dedicated Region configuration—Dedicated
Region25—will be available in a smaller, scalable size
starting at only three racks and rapidly deployable within weeks.
In addition, with OCI's multicloud capabilities, customers gain
even more choice by being able to combine cloud services across
multiple clouds to optimize cost, functionality, and performance.
Customers can access Oracle's database services running on OCI
within the data centers of other clouds including Microsoft Azure,
Google Cloud, and soon, Amazon Web Services.
Price-Performance Advantages, Global Consistency
OCI
offers substantial cost savings with consistently lower list
pricing compared to other hyperscalers. Customers typically spend
50 percent less for compute, 70 percent less for storage, and 80
precent less for networking. Additionally, OCI ensures consistent
pricing across all cloud regions, including government and
dedicated regions. With flexible Oracle Universal Credits,
customers can use any OCI service in any cloud region, including
access to future offerings, enhancing operational flexibility.
Oracle Support Rewards, unique among hyperscalers, actively helps
reduce IT costs by lowering on-premises technical support expenses.
OCI also delivers additional value through Bring Your Own License
(BYOL) programs and included Oracle Cloud Lift migration assistance
and enterprise-level support.
Comprehensive AI Solutions with Industry-Leading
Infrastructure
OCI delivers a full AI stack running on the
most powerful infrastructure in the industry and is designed to
meet the needs of all types of AI customers. With bare metal GPUs
for AI training, RoCEv2 networking at 3.2 Tbps, high-performance
storage delivering 100X the performance of standard file storage,
and the world's first zettascale cloud computing cluster, OCI
offers unmatched performance across AI workloads. Additionally, its
distributed cloud helps customers accelerate AI innovation, while
controlling data residency and privacy by deploying AI
infrastructure wherever it's needed.
