Oracle on Wednesday said it is opening a second cloud region in Chile as part of ongoing efforts to expand its global cloud footprint to compete with the larger rivals including AWS, Microsoft, and Google.
The second region will be based in the Valparaíso Region alongside the existing region in Santiago, the company said, adding that the new region will bolster its efforts to address business continuity while complying with data residency and sovereignty regulations.
The new region at Valparaíso will offer almost all Oracle services, Oracle Autonomous Database, MySQL HeatWave Database Service, Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes, Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, and AI infrastructure.
