During this series of informative podcasts, we’ll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let’s get started! 00:25 Lois: Hello and welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I’m Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs with Oracle University, and with me today is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead: Editorial Services. Nikita: Hi everyone! Today, we’re moving on to multicloud. In our next three episodes, we’ll be discussing what multicloud is and why there’s so much of a buzz around it. With us is Samvit Mishra, Senior Manager of CSS OU Cloud Delivery. Hi Samvit! Thanks for joining us today. 00:55 Samvit: Hi Niki! Hi Lois! Happy to be here. Lois: So Samvit, we know that Oracle has been an early adopter of multicloud and a pioneer in multicloud services. But for anyone who isn’t familiar with what multicloud is, can you explain what it means? Samvit: Absolutely, Lois. Multicloud is a very simple, basic concept. It is the coordinated use of cloud services from more than one cloud service provider. 01:21 Nikita: But why would someone want to use more than one cloud service provider? Samvit: There are many reasons why a customer might want to leverage two or more cloud service providers. First, it addresses the very real concern of mitigating or avoiding vendor lock-in. By using multiple providers, companies can avoid being tied down to one vendor and maintain their flexibility. 01:45 Lois: That’s like not putting all your eggs in one basket, so to speak. Samvit: Exactly. Another reason is that customers want the best of breed. What that means is basically leveraging or utilizing the best product from one cloud service provider and pairing it against the best product from another cloud service provider. Getting a solution out of the combined products…out of the coordinated use of those services. 02:14 Nikita: So, it sounds like multicloud is becoming the new normal. And as we were saying before, Oracle was a pioneer in this space. But why did we embrace multicloud so wholeheartedly? Samvit: We recognized that our customers were already moving in this direction. Independent studies from Flexera found that 89% of the subjects of the study used multicloud. And we conducted our own study and came to similar numbers. Over 90% of our customers use two or more cloud service providers. HashiCorp, the big infrastructure as code company, came to similar numbers as well, 94%. They basically asked companies if multicloud helped them advance their business goals. And 94% said yes. And all this is very recent data. 03:04 Lois: Can you give us the backstory of Oracle’s entry into the multicloud space? Samvit: Sure. So back in 2019, Oracle and Microsoft Azure joined forces and announced the interconnect service between Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft Azure. The interconnect was between Oracle’s FastConnect and Microsoft Azure’s ExpressRoute. This was a big step, as it allowed for a direct connection between the two providers without needing a third-party. And now we have several of our data centers interconnected already. So, out of the 48 regions, 12 of them are already interconnected. And more are coming. And you can very easily configure the interconnect. This interconnectivity guarantees low latency, high throughput, and predictable performance. And also, on the OCI side, there are no egress or ingress charges for your data. There's also a product called Oracle Database@Azure, where Oracle and Microsoft deliver Oracle Database services in Microsoft Azure data centers. 04:12 Lois: That’s exciting! And what are the benefits of this product? Samvit: The main advantage is the co-location. Being co-located with the Microsoft Azure data center offers you native integration between Azure and ...
