Somewhat of a surprise, Oracle and AWS have announced a partnership -- Database@AWS, effectively offering what they've recently announced to Microsoft and then GCP customers. This means OCI kit will be sat in AWS datacentres, giving low latency to other AWS workloads, however customers will be able to use 'pure' OCI services including those offering RAC. Once again, BYOL or License Included offerings are available and AWS commitments (rather than Oracle Universal Credits) can be used to buy services. Like Azure and GCP, there is a license advantage to customers using 'Database at' services as they will benefit from a 0.5 core factor whereas 'pure' deployments in those clouds will not. My observations of Database@Azure are relevant for Database@AWS, see below. https://lnkd.in/eE7KcC-m

Last week I talked about the need to shift from cloud migrations to cloud innovations. As data is now the new Oxygen for businesses, I want to focus on this next using two key AWS features, Amazon Data Exchange and Amazon DataZone, which can simplify the journey to data analysis. next week I will focus on Azure's similar offering and follow that up with GCP (yes, I decided to embrace it too)
