Oracle is the only cloud provider with dedicated government community cloud regions in the US, UK, and Australia that help companies meet compliance standards and serve the needs of these governments. Following are the keys points where OCI helps companies that serve public sector customers in global markets.

• Dedicated government community cloud-

  With regions located in 23 countries globally, Oracle offers services from 46 public cloud regions as part of its distributed cloud. OCI is designed for high availability, providing dual regions in many countries to support disaster recovery within national or regional boundaries. Oracle launched government cloud regions in the US, UK, and Australia: Oracle US Government Cloud, Oracle US Defence Cloud, Oracle UK Government and Defence Cloud, and Oracle Australian Government and Defence Cloud. Companies can use these regions to directly support the mission of these governments.



• The government Security you need-

  Oracle’s government cloud regions meet the highest security and compliance standards for department of defence (DOD). Oracle built the first and only sovereign, dedicated dual-region cloud for UK Government and Defence customers. Designed in collaboration with UK Government and Defence entities for OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE data, the dual-region cloud is Cyber Essentials Plus certified which demonstrates that it meets the higher level of cybersecurity standards required for some UK government contracts.



• Cloud capabilities-

  When a customer operates within multiple cloud environments, they need each environment to have the same compute, network, storage, and other capabilities to avoid having to reengineer their architecture in each environment. If an Apache Kafka-compatible event streaming platform isn’t available in each cloud region you are using, you’ll need to use less optimal solutions. Oracle is proud of our “Everything Everywhere” commitment to offer all available infrastructure-, platform-, and software-as-a-service (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) services and features for use in all our cloud regions, including the dedicated government cloud regions in the US, UK, and Australia. With this level of parity, companies can confidently develop and deploy solutions for their customers knowing that they will have the same experience in each Oracle Cloud region.



• Consistently low global cloud pricing-

  Oracle offers the same globally consistent cloud consumption pricing across all regions, with no price increase for the higher level of compliance and security available in our dedicated government regions. Whether you’re running a workload in Oracle’s London public cloud region or in the Oracle UK Government and Defence Cloud, the price of services is the same. Oracle uses simple, transparent pricing to help eliminate needless overpayment and billing surprises. Oracle customers can also take advantage of committed use discounts, software license portability, and support rewards for cloud consumption.



• Data and network-friendly cloud-

  OCI customers send a significant amount of data across the globe to their customers, partners, and disaster recovery sites. Customers want to move their data where it’s needed but fear enormous egress fees will hold their data hostage. OCI offers low networking prices that enable customers to move data less expensively. Inbound data transfer is free and the first 10 TB per month of outbound data transfer is free as well.

Oracle’s nonblocking cloud network is also reliable. OCI is backed with performance guarantees because mission-critical work requires consistent performance and the ability to manage, monitor, and modify resources running in the cloud at any time. Oracle is the only cloud provider that offers end-to-end service level agreements (SLAs) that cover performance, availability, and manageability of services.

• Utilize OCI to offer government clients outstanding services-

  Oracle is committed to the success of our public sector customers and the private sector companies that serve them. Oracle government cloud regions offer an excellent option for any organization seeking higher performance and lower costs for their mission-critical workloads. Oracle designed government cloud regions to be available where they are needed with essential compliance and capabilities—all at the same globally consistent price as our public cloud.
