CoreSite launched new accelerated connections of up to 50 gigabits per second (Gbps) through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) FastConnect on the Open Cloud Exchange® (OCX), CoreSite’s software-defined networking platform.

Now available in CoreSite’s Los Angeles, Chicago, and Northern Virginia data center markets, this advancement enables customers to leverage OCI locally, utilizing services such as Oracle Autonomous Database to foster innovation and propel business growth.

These enhanced OCX capabilities enable businesses to achieve greater flexibility to provision on-demand, secure bandwidth to OCI with virtual connections of up to 50 Gbps. The connectivity of FastConnect with the OCX also empowers customers deploying artificial intelligence (AI) and data-intensive applications with the capability to securely and swiftly transfer large datasets from their network edge to use with AI services and applications operating on OCI. Leveraging the accelerated connection through the OCX makes it easier to more rapidly migrate workloads between multiple public clouds.

“As the first to market with Oracle’s new FastConnect 50G capabilities in three CoreSite data center markets, we are providing customers with the bandwidth connectivity they need to support their AI and other data-intensive applications,” said Brouk Eshetu, Vice President of General Management at CoreSite. “The value of this launch lies in empowering customers to securely migrate workloads between multiple cloud environments.”

Customers using OCI benefit from best-in-class security, consistent high performance, and straightforward pricing, along with the tools and expertise needed to move enterprise workloads to the cloud efficiently. Additionally, OCI’s distributed cloud offers public cloud, multicloud, hybrid cloud, and dedicated cloud solutions, enabling customers to take full advantage of cloud computing while maintaining control over data residency, locality and compliance across various cloud environments. This capability allows customers to swiftly and efficiently migrate enterprise workloads to the cloud while addressing stringent regulatory compliance standards.

CoreSite’s Los Angeles, Chicago and Northern Virginia data center campuses also offer facilities that are certified as part of the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center Program. The LA market is composed of three facilities, including LA1 (One Wilshire®), and is home to one of the largest digital ecosystems in the world. The network-dense, cloud-connected data centers in downtown Chicago, composed of two facilities, enable accelerating IT modernization while reducing total cost of operation. With three highly interconnected data centers in its Northern Virginia campus, CoreSite is one of only two providers in the market to offer direct connections to all the major cloud providers, including Oracle.
