Oracle Database@Google Cloud Launches in Australia
Oracle and Google Cloud have teamed up to bring their dynamic multicloud service, Oracle Database@Google Cloud, to the land of kangaroos and koalas. This isn’t just another cloud announcement; it’s a game-changer that lets Aussie businesses harness the power of Oracle databases with Google Cloud’s AI and analytics prowess. Buckle up as we explore how this partnership is reshaping the cloud landscape in Australia.

Oracle Database@Google Cloud Launches in Australia

Imagine having the best of both worlds: Oracle‘s rock-solid database services and Google Cloud’s cutting-edge AI and analytics. That’s precisely what Oracle Database@Google Cloud offers. Customers in Australia can now run Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) within Google Cloud’s Australia-Southeast 2 (Melbourne) datacenter. This means lightning-fast performance and seamless integration, allowing businesses to make smarter decisions with their data. For more details on Oracle’s cloud offerings, check out Oracle Cloud.

But wait, there’s more! Google Cloud and Oracle partners can now purchase Oracle Database@Google Cloud from the Google Cloud Marketplace via a private offer and resell it to their customers. This opens up new avenues for collaboration and innovation, empowering partners to deliver integrated solutions that meet the unique needs of Aussie businesses.

Oracle Database@Google Cloud isn’t just about running databases in the cloud; it’s about unlocking the full potential of your data with AI. By combining enterprise data in Oracle databases with Google Cloud’s analytics and AI services, customers can improve decision-making and gain more complete results from Google’s Gemini models and Vertex AI platform. Think of it as giving your data a supercharged brain boost!

The first Oracle AI Database services to be offered through Oracle Database@Google Cloud to customers in Australia are:

  • Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure: This powerhouse supports Oracle Exadata X11M and leverages Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) to deliver significant performance improvements across AI, analytics, and online transaction processing (OLTP).
  • Oracle AI Database 26ai: Accelerate app development and run mission-critical workloads using the latest version of Oracle AI Database, which includes Oracle AI Vector Search, JSON Relational Duality Views, and over 300 additional major features focused on simplifying the use of AI with data.

The days of relying on a single cloud provider are fading fast. Organizations are increasingly embracing multicloud strategies to gain flexibility, scalability, and avoid vendor lock-in. This shift is particularly evident in the growth of multicloud databases, as businesses seek the freedom to choose the best tools for the job.

As Daphne Chung, research director at IDC Asia/Pacific, aptly puts it: “The rapid growth of multicloud databases shows just how strongly organizations value flexibility and scale, especially as hyperscalers expand capacity. What makes this moment different is the ability to connect powerful AI models-whether Gemini, ChatGPT, or Grok-directly to existing data. That’s not just about efficiency; it’s about giving customers genuine choice and unlocking new ways to get value from the cloud for years to come.”

The launch in Australia-Southeast 2 (Melbourne) is just the beginning. Oracle and Google Cloud are committed to expanding the reach of Oracle Database@Google Cloud with nine new regions planned within the next 12 months. These include locations in America, Asia, and Europe, ensuring that businesses around the globe can benefit from this powerful multicloud solution. Furthermore, disaster recovery capabilities have been implemented in existing regions and are planned for new ones, bolstering resiliency and ensuring business continuity.
