On June 5, Microsoft and Oracle announced a partnership that bridges the gap between Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
Enterprise customers investing in Microsoft and Oracle technology stacks can take advantage of interoperability and integration by deploying applications running on both public cloud environments.
Here are some scenarios that Microsoft and Oracle allow customers.
Unmatched connectivity between OCI and Microsoft Azure
Microsoft and Oracle have both invested in dedicated private networks to connect enterprise datacenters to their respective cloud platforms. ExpressRoute on Azure and FastConnect on OCI support a set of partners providing connectivity and network switching. A set of telecommunications, networking, and co-location providers provide high-speed connectivity between the cloud and the data center.
Through this partnership, Oracle has become a service provider for ExpressRoute, enabling direct connectivity to Azure. Customers do not need to route traffic through an intermediate service provider to establish connectivity between Azure and OCI.
Initially available in Ashburn, on the east coast of the United States, customers can seamlessly connect Azure and OCI to associate workloads in cloud environments. For example, a web application deployed in Azure can communicate with an Oracle database running in OCI with virtually no code changes.
With latencies in milliseconds to one digit, the multi-cloud connectivity agreement allows the company to run the multi-cloud application quickly, securely and reliably. Customers can extend automation through native and third-party tools, such as Terraform, to automate cloud provisioning and deployment.
Unified identity and access management
Microsoft's Active Directory (AD) is the most used directory service for businesses. With Azure, Microsoft has extended the power of AD to the cloud by enabling single sign-on for business applications and cloud-deployed web applications.
With multi-cloud connectivity, Oracle customers can integrate Azure Active Directory-based access management through a federated identity model, which provides a unified mechanism for authenticating and authorizing users. and applications.
Integrated and collaborative support model
Customers running workloads in a multi-cloud environment do not need to manage two subscriptions for support. They can call Oracle or Microsoft for help. This support model greatly simplifies the management of applications running on cloud environments.
Microsoft and Oracle have jointly created a support team trained in the services offered by the two cloud providers. With this, customers can leverage and extend their existing Microsoft Azure and OCI customer support relationships and processes.
Easy migration to the cloud
With simplified licensing models, customers can deploy Oracle enterprise applications to Azure with the same processor mapping as their existing on-premises deployments.
Enterprise applications such as Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, Peoplesoft Enterprise, Hyperion and Oracle Retail Applications can be migrated to Azure via simplified license schemes.
The same template is applied to Microsoft workloads, including SQL Server running on OCI.
Oracle has already certified a suite of applications, operating systems, and databases for Microsoft Azure. Through this partnership, additional Oracle workloads will be officially available on Azure.
Choose the best models for deploying the breed
Microsoft has invested in a modern container-based infrastructure and server-less architectures. Services such as Azure Container Instances, Durable Features, Virtual Kubelet, and Event Grid are examples of unique and innovative services available to Azure customers.
Through this partnership, customers can run very large applications on Azure while interacting with the powerful Oracle database instances running in OCI. They can seamlessly integrate applications through streaming, events, and triggers available exclusively in Azure.
OCI customers can also leverage the power of AI, IoT, Blockchain, and Edge services provided by Azure. Microsoft customers can take advantage of Oracle RAC, Exadata, and Autonomous databases deployed in OCI.
The road ahead
In addition to basic connectivity and interoperability, Microsoft and Oracle are engaging for closer integration of Azure and OCI.
Some of the interesting possibilities include:
- Integration of Oracle Analytics Cloud and Azure Data Services
- Integrating Power BI with Oracle Applications and Databases
- Integrated monitoring between Azure AppInsights and the OCI Monitoring Service
- Integrated key management between Azure KMS and OCI KMS
- Integrating Microsoft Teams with Oracle Applications
The partnership between Microsoft and Oracle becomes the first true multi-cloud agreement in the industry combining two consumer public cloud environments: Azure and OCI. This is also an indicator that multi-cloud initiatives are becoming essential and strategic for businesses.
