Interconnect enables customers to migrate and
run mission-critical workloads at FedRAMP High
AUSTIN,
Texas, Feb. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- To
meet growing customer demand for multicloud capabilities, Oracle
today announced the general availability of the Oracle US Gov West
(Phoenix) and Azure US Gov Arizona
(Phoenix) regions for Oracle
Interconnect for Microsoft Azure. Joint customers can use the
Oracle Interconnect for Microsoft Azure to easily migrate their
workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Azure FedRAMP
High-authorized environments.
The Oracle Interconnect for Microsoft Azure combines Oracle
Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect and Microsoft ExpressRoute to
enable customers to deploy workloads across Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure and Microsoft Azure regions. This provides less than
two milliseconds of round-trip latency for superior multicloud
network performance. Customers can also build new cloud-native
applications using Azure for US Government and Oracle Government
Cloud technologies.
With no additional charge for data transfer between the two
clouds, Azure for US Government customers can maximize application
performance by connecting government applications running in Azure
directly to Oracle Autonomous Database and Oracle Exadata Database
Service in the Oracle US Government Cloud. In addition, customers
can take advantage of unique services in each hyperscaler such as
Oracle Cloud Application and Process Integration Services and use
them over a high bandwidth and low latency connection. For example,
Azure analytics applications can seamlessly integrate with 'single
source of truth' customer data residing in Oracle Government Cloud
over a low-cost, high-performance connection.
Industry-specific applications such as Oracle Communications
session border controllers, which are critical for real-time
communications and Microsoft Teams connectivity to PSTN providers,
can also benefit from Oracle Government Cloud's resiliency and
reliability, with the elimination of downtime failovers.
"Government agencies shouldn't be stuck with a single cloud
provider," said Kim Lynch, executive
vice president, Government, Intelligence and Defense, Oracle.
"Agencies need to be able to choose the best performing and most
cost-effective cloud for each of their workloads. The support for
the interconnect in these government regions provides a powerful
new option for our mutual customers. By combining the strengths of
the FedRAMP High-authorized Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and
Microsoft Azure regions, agencies can achieve new levels of
efficiency and scalability."
"Our collaboration with Oracle is unlocking new possibilities
for government agencies by integrating the best of Microsoft and
Oracle Cloud technologies," said Brett
Tanzer, vice president Azure Solutions and Ecosystem,
Microsoft. "This partnership empowers our joint customers to
innovate faster, using advanced analytics, AI, Security and App
services in the cloud."
"As organizations work to meet strict regulatory standards and
data sovereignty requirements, multicloud environments can provide
new levels of flexibility," said Samia Tarraf, Oracle Business
Group lead for Accenture. "The Oracle Interconnect for Microsoft
Azure will offer our government clients a new choice on where to
run their workloads. Coupled with Accenture's experience with
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft Azure, through this
integration we can help clients reinvent and capture the value of
generative AI and data sovereignty with a strong digital core."
