In a bid to help enterprises
maintain business continuity and stay on the path of digital
transformation in these tough Covid-19 times, Oracle on Monday announced
the opening of its second Cloud region in India. The Hyderabad
Cloud region will help Indian customers and partners access all Oracle
Cloud services, including Oracle Autonomous Database and Oracle
Autonomous Linux, as well as Oracle Cloud Applications, to unlock
innovation and drive business.
"The Covid-19 and ensuing
lockdowns have disrupted several businesses in India. The Hyderabad
Cloud region will help a large number of Indian organisations realise
their digital transformation dreams," Shailender Kumar, Regional
Managing Director, Oracle India, told IANS.
The Oracle's
enterprise-grade Gen 2 Cloud regions are already helping hundreds of
customers realize three-five time performance improvements using secure
cloud services.
Over 100 enterprise customers in the country
moved their workloads onto the Gen 2 Cloud data centre in Mumbai with
its launch in October last year, which is being run solely by Oracle
without any third-party involvement.
"With two Oracle Cloud
regions live in India, we're fully geared to support our 15,000 plus
customers in their innovation journey, with adequate support by nearly
1,000 specialised Oracle partners," informed Kumar.
The two Cloud
regions would help enterprises effectively meet increasing demand for
secure and stable enterprise cloud services.
"We congratulate
Oracle India on opening their second Cloud region in Hyderabad. This
will surely help both public and private enterprises in our state to
take advantage of Oracle cloud services," said Jayesh Ranjan, Principal
Secretary, Industries & Commerce (I&C) and Information
Technology (IT), Telangana.
Equipped with strengthened
capabilities for business continuity and disaster recovery, Oracle will
provide enterprise customers in India better performance, pricing, and
security based on its second-generation Cloud.
"With Oracle
opening dual cloud regions in Australia, Japan, Korea and now India, we
are further renewing our commitment to support growth in the new
decade," added Garrett Ilg, Executive Vice President, Japan and Asia
Pacific, Oracle.
The Hyderabad opening is part of Oracle's global plans to operate 36 second generation Cloud regions by the end of this year.
"This Cloud region will help scores of Indian firms adjust to the new normal," said Kumar.
