AUSTIN,
Texas and SUNNYVALE,
Calif., Jan. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle and
Google Cloud today announced plans to add eight new regions, as
well as powerful new capabilities for Oracle Database@Google Cloud
that will help customers fortify database instances, optimize
costs, and achieve greater flexibility and resiliency.
Additionally, new capabilities will be added including the
general availability of cross-region disaster recovery and database
replication for Oracle Autonomous Database Serverless on Oracle
Database@Google Cloud and support for single-node Oracle database
deployments on Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated
Infrastructure for Oracle Database@Google Cloud.
Oracle Database@Google Cloud enables customers to easily create
new cloud applications using the industry-leading Oracle Database
or migrate their existing Oracle databases and applications to OCI
running in Google Cloud with simplified cloud purchasing and
management. Regional availability planned for the next 12
months includes U.S. Central 1 (Iowa), North America-Northeast 1 (Montreal), North America-Northeast 2
(Toronto), Asia-Northeast 1
(Tokyo), Asia-Northeast 2
(Osaka), Asia-South 1
(Mumbai), Asia-South 2
(Delhi), and South America-East 1
(Sao Paulo). To meet growing
customer demand, datacenter capacity will also be doubled in
regions including London,
Frankfurt, and Ashburn in the next 12 months. The new regions
and expanded capacity are in addition to Google Cloud regions
across U.S. East (Ashburn), U.S.
West (Salt Lake City), U.K. South
(London), and Germany Central
(Frankfurt) that are available
today.
New Oracle Database@Google Cloud Capabilities
- Cross-region disaster recovery support for Oracle Autonomous
Database Serverless: Helps customers ensure system continuity,
accelerate operational recovery, improve data protection, and
address compliance and regulatory requirements by enabling data to
be replicated on a standby database in a separate Google Cloud
region. In addition, customers can securely access their Oracle
databases from anywhere through a public endpoint, as well as
secure access that is restricted to a set of approved IP addresses.
This enables customers to improve the security posture of their
Oracle Database landscape and implement a comprehensive cloud
disaster recovery strategy.
- Single-node VM clusters for Oracle Exadata Database Service
on Dedicated Infrastructure: Helps customers gain more
flexibility over their costs and infrastructure footprint by
enabling them to benefit from Oracle Exadata's workload isolation,
performance, and simplified management. Previously, all VM clusters
on Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure for
Oracle Database@Google Cloud had a minimum of two VMs and
databases, as well as Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC). The
new single-node clusters support scenarios such as test and
development environments, as well as databases that do not have RAC
licenses and do not require RAC's high availability features.
"The new capabilities for Oracle Database@Google Cloud are
designed to support customers' mission-critical database workloads
and overall IT strategies, in a multicloud context," said
Karan Batta, senior vice president,
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. "Oracle continues to develop OCI's
multicloud capabilities with a focus on resiliency, comprehensive
capabilities, and the most attractive commercial terms."
"We continue to work closely with Oracle to support our joint
customers on their multicloud journeys," said Andi Gutmans, vice president and general manager
of databases, Google Cloud. "Oracle Database@Google Cloud's new
features will help customers speed up their cloud migrations with
increased confidence around mission-critical workloads and
cost-effectiveness. By bringing customers' databases closer to
Google's AI offerings, customers gain significant benefits such as
faster and more efficient AI processing resulting in the ability to
rapidly scale AI applications."
Oracle Database@Google Cloud customers can purchase Oracle
Database services using their existing Google Cloud commitments and
leverage their existing Oracle license benefits, such as Bring Your
Own License (BYOL) and Oracle Support Rewards. Oracle Exadata
Database Service, Oracle Autonomous Database, and Oracle Database
Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service are available with
custom quotes via private offer. Oracle Autonomous Database is also
available with usage-based pricing, giving customers the
flexibility to deploy a fully managed database in minutes.
Additional customer benefits include:
- Simplified workload deployment and consolidation via
compatibility with on-premises Oracle Database and Oracle Exadata
deployments.
- The simplicity, security, and low latency of a unified
operating environment within Google Cloud to deploy many OCI
database services, including Oracle Exadata Database Service on
Dedicated Infrastructure, Oracle Autonomous Database, Oracle
Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure, Oracle
Database Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service, and OCI
GoldenGate.
- Native integration with Google Cloud's console, APIs,
monitoring, and operations.
- Simplified purchasing and contracting via Google Cloud
Marketplace that enables customers to purchase Oracle Database
services using their existing Google Cloud commitments.
- Unified customer experience and support from Google Cloud and
Oracle.
- Integrations between OCI, Oracle Database, and Google Cloud
services like Gemini foundation models, Vertex AI, BigQuery, and
Looker enabling organizations to drive breakthroughs in the cloud
and accelerate insights for their organizations.
- Available private, high-speed connectivity to OCI through
Oracle Interconnect for Google Cloud for supporting use cases such
as data and application integration.

services in their own data centers with OCI Dedicated Region, while
partners can resell OCI cloud services and customize the experience
using Oracle Alloy. Oracle also operates separate U.S., UK, and
Australian Government Clouds, and Isolated Cloud Regions for
national security purposes. Each of these products provide a full
cloud and AI stack that customers can deploy as a Sovereign
Cloud.
- Hybrid cloud: OCI delivers key cloud services
on-premises via Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer and Compute
Cloud@Customer and is already managing deployments in over 60
countries. Additionally, OCI Roving Edge Infrastructure, which
consists of multiple configurations of ruggedized and portable
high-performance devices, helps customers leverage remote AI
inferencing at the edge.
- Multicloud: OCI is physically deployed within all the
hyperscale cloud providers, including AWS, Google Cloud, and
Microsoft Azure, providing low latency, natively integrated Oracle
database services, including Oracle Database@AWS, Oracle
Database@Azure, Oracle Database@Google Cloud, and Oracle HeatWave
