“The new Singapore data center is our latest data center investment in the fast-grwoing Asia Pacific market,” said Yen Yen Tan, senior vice president for application sales at Oracle Corporation Asia Pacific in a media briefing coinciding with the Oracle CloudWorld 2013 event here at the Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Center.
The enterprise software company said that the data center will provide their customers and partners subscription based, self service access to Oracle’s Fusion Applications — an open-standards based applications for business to maximize areas in enterprise resource planning, human capital and talent management, sales and marketing, and customer service and support.
“We are going to lead in the cloud space in Asia Pacific,” said Tan. “With our next generation of Fusion Applications now available in a hosted, subscription-based model, we are giving our customers the time-to-value and ease-of-use flexibility they’ve been waiting for.”
The new data center will use the company’s flagship systems for running critical business applications such as Oracle Engineered Systems, Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud, and Oracle Exadata, which the tech provider described as pre-integrated IT infrastructure systems that are optimized for the enterprise space.
The company also said that they have created a cloud service that is modular, which is based on standard configurations so that customers can decide what they want to deploy –- as little data or as much data as they want.
“The enterprise cloud is helping businesses find efficiency and productivity gains through scalable, agile software solutions,” said Leslie Ong, managing director at Oracle Singapore. The new data center in Singapore underscores Oracle’s ongoing commitment to offering cloud solutions to our customers.”
Managed and supported by staff from Oracle, the data center will be housed at Equinix, a prime location for data centers in Singapore.
“We have chosen Singapore for this data center because of its excellent telecommunications infrastructure, efficient and well-qualified manpower,” said Ong.
