Oracle and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have launched a groundbreaking cloud database service, Oracle Database@AWS, aiming to provide a single, unified database experience for customers across both platforms. This strategic alliance combines Oracle’s robust database solutions with the flexibility and power of AWS’s cloud infrastructure.
The new service integrates Oracle Autonomous Database and Oracle Exadata Database Service into AWS’s cloud ecosystem. This initiative aims to transform enterprise data management by providing a low-latency network connection between Oracle databases and AWS applications. Customers will benefit from seamless access to Oracle databases in conjunction with AWS’s extensive suite of services, including Amazon EC2, AWS Analytics, and AWS’s AI and machine learning tools like Bedrock.
Oracle’s CTO Larry Ellison highlighted that the launch addresses the increasing demand for multicloud environments. This integration is designed to enhance security and scalability while providing a more efficient solution for data management.
AWS CEO Matt Garman also commended the partnership, saying, “This expanded collaboration will bring Oracle Database services to AWS, allowing customers to take advantage of AWS’s cloud flexibility, reliability, and scalability while using the enterprise software they rely on.”
The new service package includes Amazon’s zero-ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) integration for smoother data workflows, improved options for purchasing Oracle Database services through AWS Marketplace, and better tools for migrating Oracle databases to the cloud. Early adopter Vodafone has already reported positive outcomes from using Oracle Database@AWS, noting it has accelerated the development of secure, resilient, and scalable services.
This integration marks a significant milestone in cloud computing, as it aims to simplify data management and enhance performance for businesses operating in a multicloud environment.
