In early September, Oracle and Microsoft formed a groundbreaking partnership to bring Oracle Exadata infrastructure to Azure.This exciting development means that enterprises can now fully embrace Oracle in their “Migration and Modernization” journey. Customers can now take advantage of the powerful combination of Microsoft's platform and AI capabilities, which makes it possible for Oracle workloads to run on Azure.
This partnership facilitates the delivery of mission-critical Oracle Exadata and Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) services directly from within the Azure data center.
Tessell welcomes this announcement from Oracle and Microsoft and is proud to make two new announcements to enable elegant data management on Exadata@Azure.
Tessell Airdrop: A brand new service in Tessell to facilitate the seamless migration of Oracle databases from Exadata on-premises to Exadata@Azure.
Unified Control Plane: Tessell will extend its platform for managing Oracle on Azure IaaS to the new Exadata@Azure infrastructure.
