AUSTIN,
Texas, May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital
Realty (NYSE: DLR), a global provider of cloud- and carrier-neutral
data center, colocation, and interconnection solutions, today
announced a collaboration with Oracle to accelerate the growth and
adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) among enterprises. The
strategic collaboration aims to develop hybrid integrated solutions
that address Data Gravity challenges, expedite time to market for
enterprises deploying next-generation AI services, and unlock data
and AI-based business outcomes.
As part of this collaboration, Oracle will deploy critical
GPU-based infrastructure in a dedicated Digital Realty data center
in Northern Virginia. This
deployment, which leverages Digital Realty's open, purpose-built
global data center solution PlatformDIGITAL®, will cater to a wide
range of enterprises and AI customers, helping them to address
critical infrastructure challenges, including those experienced
with NVIDIA and AMD deployments. By leveraging the expertise and
resources of both Oracle and Digital Realty, customers with mixed
requirements can benefit from a tailored and efficient solution
that meets their specific needs for GPU-based infrastructure.
This announcement further strengthens Digital Realty's existing
partnership with Oracle, which currently encompasses multiple
deployments across the globe, 11 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
FastConnect points of presence, a global ServiceFabric™ presence,
and a recent Oracle Solution Center deployment in one of Digital
Realty's Frankfurt data centers.
In the fourth quarter of last year, Digital Realty successfully
implemented an OCI Dedicated Region deployment for a major
financial services customer, showcasing the potential of the
collaboration between Oracle and Digital Realty in meeting
enterprise customers' hybrid cloud requirements.
