09:10AM CST Multi-Cloud made Easy with the OCI-Azure Interconnect
by Suzanne Holliday, Sr. Principal Product Manager, ORACLE
Larry Ellison and Satya Nadella recently announced the general availability of Oracle Database Service for Microsoft Azure (ODSA), enabling Azure Applications to directly access Oracle Database Services with low latency as if operating in one cloud. DevOps and DBAs familiar with Azure can deploy Oracle Databases from the Azure Portal, use ODSA’s automated cross-cloud network provisioning and identity federation as well as view Azure integrated Oracle Database metrics as a single pane of glass for observability. ODSA complements the OCI-Azure Interconnect Service, forged by the 2019 Oracle and Microsoft partnership. Join this session to discover ODSA pre-requisites and best practices for implementing OCI-Azure workloads spanning both clouds using the Oracle converged database, optimized for all database workloads, data types, and development paradigms as a single, unified enterprise cloud solution.
