Oracle Corporation plans to invest more than USD 8 billion over the next ten years to meet the growing demand for cloud computing and AI infrastructure in Japan.
"We are dedicated to meeting our customers and partners where they are in their cloud journey," said Toshimitsu Misawa, member of the board, corporate executive officer and president, Oracle Corporation Japan. "By growing our cloud footprint and providing a team to support sovereign operations in Japan, we are giving our customers and partners the opportunity to innovate with AI and other cloud services while supporting their regulatory and sovereignty requirements."
Cloud Journey in Japan
The investment will grow Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's (OCI) footprint across Japan, in addition to helping customers and partners address the digital sovereignty requirements in the country. Oracle will significantly expand its operations and support engineering teams with Japan-based personnel.
Oracle plans to increase local customer support of its public cloud regions in Tokyo and Osaka and its local operations teams for Oracle Alloy and OCI Dedicated Region. This will enable governments and businesses across Japan to continue to move their mission-critical workloads to the Oracle Cloud and embrace sovereign AI solutions.
Oracle sovereign cloud and AI services can be delivered securely within a country's borders or an organization's premises with a range of operational controls. Oracle is the only hyperscaler capable of delivering AI and a full suite of 100+ cloud services locally, anywhere.
