Internet of Clouds
|
The 'Internet of clouds' statement made by Oracle CTO Larry Ellison during the opening keynote at Oracle CloudWorld 2022 enables customers to choose cloud services from various vendors and to go for the best cloud service from the cloud vendors.
|
|
The words that stuck in my mind were "Internet of clouds". What does it mean that, as he said, we need to build clouds like the internet, which are interconnected and have interoperability. Customers have all the choices of services, irrespective of what the vendors are, they are connected.
|
|
And if I recall, a couple of weeks back, the discussion, in which I wrote a blog, an article, and a podcast, that one of the fundamental problems we are having in the adoption of the cloud is silo clouds.
|
|
The first phase may have been okay when customers started adopting the cloud, whether it was a SaaS, platform as a service, or infrastructure as a service. However, the questions eventually began to reveal what about the different environments, workloads, applications, and the main critical business applications, which are from different vendors, and then the four prominent cloud vendors, Oracle Cloud, Google, Microsoft Azure, and AWS, each have their own offerings.
|
|
How is the customer going to decide that? If I'm going with a single cloud vendor or a multiple cloud vendor, then what are the advantages of why customers are moving to multi-cloud, like the cost, to have a disaster recovery or have a plan B? or choosing the best service among the different cloud vendors?
|
|
In the context of the Internet of clouds, it means we need a cloud that is connected. This world needs a cloud that is connected to each other. And that's what Oracle CTO Larry Ellison mentioned during the opening keynote of Oracle Cloud World.
|
|
If all these clouds are connected, then it means the problems are solved. It's based on the customer's requirements. It means that cloud vendors are giving choices to customers, whatever they want to adopt or whatever service they want. It's up to the customer to choose. It's based on their skills, based on the maturity of the service, and what service they're going to use.
|
|
In my view, this is the reason Oracle has done a partnership with Microsoft Azure, where Oracle is offering an Oracle database in the Oracle Cloud and then customers can have applications in Microsoft Azure.
|
|
So it solves the fundamental problem that customers were facing. The cloud vendors started to realize it, and they started to address it. It's going to take time. As the cloud vendors' maturity is growing, customers are moving more and more applications to the cloud.

I will go through a number of more announcements that were made during the Oracle Cloud World and are mentioned in the latest news section.
