Jan 31- The cloud giants Oracle (ORCL, Financial) and Google Cloud (GOOG, Financial) revealed their plans to build eight new regions within their cloud infrastructure during the following 12 months because they focus on responding to escalating customer requirements. The expansion plan introduces new locations to the United States and Canada as well as Japan, India, and Brazil, and it increases capacity in current regions, which include London, Frankfurt, and Ashburn.

Besides their regional growth, the companies have introduced new features for Oracle Database@Google Cloud to make databases stronger and more flexible. The availability of disaster recovery across different Google Cloud regions has become available for Oracle Autonomous Database Serverless under general terms, which strengthens system continuity while enhancing data protection.

This service delivers perfect functionality for test and development environments and databases that do not need Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) high availability features.

At Google Cloud, Andi Gutmans, who serves as their databases division vice president and general manager, explained how customers gain better security along with more efficient AI application scalability.
