Enterprise software and cloud infrastructure firm Oracle Corp. said it is expanding multicloud networking with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to let customers establish private, high-speed connections between Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and AWS.
The setup will link Oracle Interconnect with AWS Interconnect-multicloud, allowing customers to run applications and move data across both cloud environments.
The announcement reflects a broader shift in how enterprises are approaching cloud adoption as a mix-and-match strategy across platforms.
“Oracle continues to advance multicloud connectivity as part of its commitment to helping customers unlock flexibility, agility, and performance across clouds,” said Nathan Thomas, senior vice president, product management, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
The integration is designed to support both full and split-stack multicloud deployments, an approach where companies distribute workloads across providers rather than consolidating them in one, Oracle said.
This setup could reduce the need for managing multiple network vendors or building physical infrastructure, while also easing the movement of large datasets between clouds, it added.
“With Oracle AI Database@AWS, we pioneered a simpler way for customers to run Oracle AI Database workloads in AWS with the same features, architecture, and performance as they expect on-premises,” the company said in a statement.
“We’re now building on that by establishing connectivity between our popular cross-cloud interconnect and AWS Interconnect-multicloud. This will help our mutual customers modernize applications, unify data, and unlock new generative AI opportunities,” it added.
The company is positioning the offering as a way to simplify AI-driven workloads, which often require access to distributed data and compute resources.
By enabling more direct connectivity between OCI and AWS, Oracle aims to address latency, security, and operational complexity, common friction points in multicloud setups.
OCI operates across 26 interconnected partner cloud regions, and its multicloud networking services focus on private, high-availability connections rather than public internet routing.
The planned integration with AWS builds on the broader AWS Interconnect-multicloud framework, which is intended to standardize how enterprises connect different cloud environments.
The new capability is expected to roll out later this year, starting with AWS’s US East (N. Virginia) region.
