AUSTIN,
Texas, Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital
Realty (NYSE: DLR), the largest global provider of cloud- and
carrier-neutral data center, colocation, and interconnection
solutions, today announced it will offer connectivity to the
recently-launched Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud via Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure (OCI) FastConnect. Customers can benefit from secure
and reliable connectivity to the Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud regions
in Frankfurt and Madrid, and they can choose to use Digital
Realty to interconnect their Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud-based
applications and workloads to other cloud platforms.

Located entirely within the European Union (EU), Oracle EU
Sovereign Cloud provides customers with access to OCI's public
cloud services, while giving them additional control over their
data privacy and sovereignty requirements. Designed to address the
EU's evolving regulatory landscape, Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud
offers customers the services and capabilities of OCI's public
cloud regions with the same prices, support, and service level
agreements (SLAs) to run all workloads.
The OCI FastConnect interconnection to Oracle EU Sovereign
Cloud is facilitated by Digital Realty's proprietary
interconnection and orchestration solution ServiceFabric™, which
also extends access to Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud from more than 130
locations globally. This helps ensure that customers can choose to
connect from anywhere around the globe.
"Reliable connectivity is necessary for critical, high bandwidth
workloads like analytics, artificial intelligence, data
warehousing, and streaming. With OCI FastConnect, customers
can achieve high service levels and reliably high throughput in
their network connection to Oracle Cloud. Partners like Digital
Realty play a key role in supporting the hybrid multicloud
solutions that our customers expect," said Yogesh Kaushik, Vice President of Product
Management, Networking Services, Oracle.
"As more organizations harness the power of the cloud,
prioritizing data protection, reliability, latency and compliance
become mission critical. We believe that embracing the cloud should
not come at the cost of compromising data privacy or facing
regulatory hurdles. With Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud, businesses
can unlock the full potential of digital transformation while
adhering to the highest standards of data protection and
sovereignty. We're delighted to work with Oracle to drive demand
for its new Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud and to enable our joint
customers to seamlessly and securely interconnect to OCI
FastConnect and other cloud platforms," said Harm Joosse, Global
Head of Strategy & Business Segments, Service Providers,
Digital Realty.
In addition to OCI FastConnect connectivity to Oracle EU
Sovereign Cloud in Madrid, Digital
Realty currently hosts nine other OCI FastConnect
points-of-presence (PoPs) globally, including Amsterdam, Chicago, Frankfurt, Johannesburg, Los
Angeles, London,
Madrid, Marseille, and Sao
Paulo, to provide customers with low-latency, secure, and
high-performance connectivity to OCI FastConnect.
