AUSTIN,
Texas, Feb. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle has
been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Public
Cloud Infrastructure as a Service 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc
#US51813824, January 2025). A
complimentary excerpt is available here.
The IDC MarketScape report evaluated 13 public cloud
Infrastructure as a Service providers, evaluating each provider
based on criteria such as their ability to deliver services at
scale, the range of functionality offered, and innovation.
The report stated, "OCI's global reach is supported by
high-speed interconnects, including partnerships with Microsoft
Azure in 12 regions and Google Cloud in 11 regions. These
interconnections enable joint customers to leverage OCI alongside
Azure or Google Cloud with low latency and no data transfer fees,
facilitating seamless multicloud architectures. Oracle's multicloud
strategy and offerings extends directly into the other major
hyperscalers with its Oracle Database@Azure, Oracle Database@Google
Cloud, and Oracle Database@AWS services. Customers can run Exadata
Database Service, as well as Autonomous Database, directly in the
datacenters of the major hyperscalers, with the flexibility and
choice of where their applications run or which cloud services they
want to use."
"Oracle's cloud strategy is aligned with IDC's view into what
customers want from their strategic providers," said Dave McCarthy, research vice president, IDC.
"Flexible compute shapes and consistent deployment options
that deliver cloud computing wherever organizations require it
comes up as a persistent theme in our research and surveys. With
OCI, Oracle continues to make significant investments in AI
infrastructure—such as with OCI Supercluster, which is available
with up to 131,072 NVIDIA GPUs—and multicloud solutions that create
a differentiated cloud experience."
The report noted, "The partnerships with Microsoft, Google, and
Amazon are a strong differentiator, allowing Oracle to address
multicloud needs effectively. With increasing numbers of regions
interconnected with Azure and Google Cloud already, Oracle has
strengthened its ability to cater to customers looking for a hybrid
or multicloud approach. IDC believes the deep investments Oracle
has made in OCI as well as enticements around pricing and fees have
paid off."
"Oracle's heritage in enterprise software and databases provides
a foundation of trust among long-standing clients, particularly
those in regulated sectors such as financial services, healthcare,
and government," the report added. "OCI Dedicated Region further
strengthens Oracle's appeal to these industries by delivering the
full range of Oracle Cloud services on premises, with compliance
and latency requirements in mind."
The report noted, "OCI's compute portfolio remains varied,
offering Intel, AMD, and Arm-based options with recent updates to
support expanded GPU and AI/ML-focused instance types, such as
NVIDIA A100 and H100 GPUs, to support AI model training."
"We believe Oracle's position as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape
reflects the global demand we're seeing for our AI and cloud
services," said Karan Batta, senior
vice president, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. "With consistent
global pricing and a distributed cloud model, customers can
optimize their cloud strategy wherever they operate however they
want. Our fully integrated AI capabilities combined with the
industry's most powerful AI infrastructure help customers innovate
faster and drive more meaningful outcomes."
