Select customers can begin using Oracle
Exadata Database Service on Oracle Database@AWS to simplify the
migration and deployment of enterprise workloads to the
cloud
AUSTIN,
Texas, Dec. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Oracle today announced the limited preview of Oracle
Database@AWS. Customers will now be able to run Oracle Exadata
Database Service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
(OCI) in Amazon Web Services (AWS), starting with the AWS US
East Region. Oracle Database@AWS provides customers with a fully
integrated experience for deploying, managing, and using Oracle
Exadata Database Service natively within AWS.
Initially announced earlier this year, Oracle
Database@AWS allows customers to migrate Oracle Database
workloads, including Oracle Exadata and Oracle Real Application
Cluster (RAC), to the cloud. The offering provides a low latency
network connection between Oracle databases and applications on
AWS. This makes it easy for customers to connect enterprise data in
their Oracle databases to applications running on Amazon Elastic
Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), AWS Analytics services, or AWS'
advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)
services, including Amazon Bedrock. Oracle will operate and manage
Oracle Exadata Database Service.
"Up until now, it has been impossible to replicate the
performance and functionality of Oracle Database on Exadata in
AWS," said Dave McCarthy, research
vice president, IDC. "With Oracle Database@AWS, customers can
finally enjoy that same experience with an easy migration path to
the cloud for their on-premises mission-critical workloads. This
allows them to reap the benefits of simplifying their daily
management and operations to prioritize modernization
initiatives."
Oracle Database@AWS enables customers to utilize their existing
skills and provides a unified experience between OCI and AWS
for simplified database administration, billing, and unified
customer support, with the security, agility, flexibility, and
sustainability benefits provided by AWS. Customers can quickly
launch their Oracle Database@AWS experience using familiar tools
such as the AWS Management Console. Customers can also benefit
from:
- Seamlessly and securely connect and analyze data
across Oracle Database services and applications they already
have running on AWS to get faster, deeper insights without having
to build pipelines.
- Flexible options to simplify and accelerate migrating
their Oracle databases to the cloud, including
compatibility with proven migration tools such
as Oracle Zero Downtime Migration.
- A simplified procurement experience via AWS Marketplace.
Customer's usage of Oracle Database@AWS qualifies for their
existing AWS commitments and uses their
existing Oracle license benefits, including Bring Your
Own License (BYOL) and discount programs such
as Oracle Support Rewards (OSR).
- A fully unified support experience from both AWS
and Oracle, as well as guidance through reference
architectures, landing zones, and other collateral for customers to
successfully build and run their most trusted enterprise
applications in the cloud.
In addition, Oracle Database@AWS will help customers unify their
data across Oracle and AWS for analytics, machine learning, and
generative AI. This will help customers to build new scalable
microservices-based applications and accelerate their time to
market for new features by combining Amazon EC2, Amazon Elastic
Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), and Amazon Elastic Container
Service (Amazon ECS) with Oracle Database 23ai features, like AI
Vector Search.
"We want our customers to have access to our data services and
to be able to seamlessly use multiple clouds," said Karan Batta, senior vice president, Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure. "This partnership provides a unified way for
customers to use the best of Oracle and AWS to take advantage of
the latest AI innovations and simplify operations. The introduction
of Oracle Exadata Database Service in the AWS US East Region is
only the beginning, and we plan to continue to work with AWS to
meet customer demand."
Oracle Database@AWS is slated to have broader availability in
coming months. The two companies plan to continue to partner and
make additional Oracle Database services available.
