Oracle Teams Up With Verizon For Cloud

Oracle is teaming up with New York-based Verizon to offer its customers secure cloud. The service is being offered via Verizon’s Secure Cloud Interconnect services enabling enterprises to seamlessly move workloads to the Oracle Cloud.

With Verizon Secure Cloud Interconnect for Oracle FastConnect, customers can now connect to Oracle Cloud data center sites located in the U.S. and Europe. With Oracle’s Cloud facilities, in-region connectivity helps improve performance by reducing latency and providing strong quality of service.

With Verizon’s Secure Cloud Interconnect for Oracle FastConnect, enterprises can take advantage of the service’s Software Defined Networking (SDN) capabilities to gain greater control and agility over their cloud environments. This includes consumption-based bandwidth, pre-provisioned on-demand resources, controlled application performance and varying classes of service that can be easily provisioned via Verizon’s Dynamic Network Manager.

According to a recent cloud research report conducted by Turbonomic and Verizon, multi-cloud deployments are growing in popularity. More than 70 percent of large enterprises surveyed currently use or plan to use multiple clouds to deliver IT services in the next three years.*

Verizon Secure Cloud Interconnect for Oracle FastConnect supports Oracle’s broader portfolio of Fast Connect services, which allow customers to establish a secure high-speed private MPLS connection between their existing IT infrastructure and the cloud compute resources on the Oracle Cloud. The services are delivered by a set of offerings within the Oracle Network Cloud Service portfolio, designed to give enterprises fast and consistent network performance, as well as hybrid cloud deployment options.
