ORACLE CLOUD SERVICES FOR
EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH FACILITIES
The GÉANT Association has been supporting research and education in Europe for over 20 years, providing innovative IT infrastructure and services as an umbrella organisation for National Research and Education Networks (NRENs). The OCRE 2024 Framework enables research and education institutions and public institutions to access Cloud Solutions in an easy, compliant, and cost-effective way, while saving time and effort on individual procurements and reducing bureaucratic burdens. Integration of established technologies such as Network connectivity and Identity management, promotes the use of cloud services in science.
Robotron supports you in the implementation of innovative cloud and AI projects and is your exclusive contact for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services in Germany for on-demand contracts and services from the GÉANT and OCRE framework agreements. As an educational or research institution, you save yourself lengthy tenders and can use cloud services at short notice.
In addition to contractual administration, Robotron also offers you a complete service portfolio. From help with getting started to operational support (7x24h SLA) of highly functional systems, our experts are at your side.
Oracle 23ai: AI-supported database for intelligent applications in the cloud
Oracle Database 23ai integrates advanced AI capabilities that are crucial for modern data applications. A key feature is AI Vector Search, which enables searching through documents, images and relational data based on their content rather than just specific words or data values. Additionally, the database supports the integration of machine learning models directly within the database environment.
By embedding AI directly into the database, data can be processed securely and in real time without the need for external systems. This enhances efficiency, reduces potential security risks, and allows for quicker adaption to changing requirements.
These are the benefits of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
Focus on data integrity and security
Oracle offers a sovereign cloud solution that is specifically designed to meet the needs of businesses and organizations. With a focus on data privacy and compliance, Oracle Cloud enables secure management and storage of sensitive data. Its comprehensive database management, enterprise applications, and AI-powered analytics capabilities make Oracle Cloud particularly attractive for industries such as research, healthcare, and public administration, where data privacy is paramount.
Predictably high power and performance
In Oracle Cloud, each service receives the allocated resources. There is no "overprovisioning" as with other cloud providers. Oracle therefore offers you service level agreements for performance and creates service credits if performance cannot be met (see: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Service Level Agreement | Oracle Germany), from simple VMs to high-performance computing (see: High Performance Computing (HPC) | Oracle Germany).
Technological openness and a wide selection of cloud services
Whether it is operating systems, VMs, or bare metal systems, everyone can deploy what they need in the Oracle Cloud. A wide range of technologies and cloud services enable the operation of any application. Whether prefabricated database services based on VMs, Exadata or "Autonomous" databases or GenAI, analytics or Kubernetes services. Oracle can always provide the right platforms for research, development, and teaching. And in most cases, more cost-effectively than other hyper-scalers, while maintaining high performance.
