Oracle SVP of networking Rajagopal Subramaniy stepped down from his role at the hyperscaler.

Subramaniy wrote on LinkedIn that he left Oracle at the end of October, bringing to an end a stint that lasted just over seven and a half years.

“I feel privileged to have been part of (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s) growth and transformation from a handful of regions to hundreds of sites worldwide, and from an emerging cloud provider to being consistently recognized by Gartner as a leader in cloud infrastructure,” Subramaniy wrote. “Along the way, I had the opportunity to lead across different parts of this journey, from growing our file storage business to leading all of OCI networking.

"Together, we navigated some defining moments – scaling through the pandemic, supporting several hyperscale customers, and most recently, delivering AI infrastructure at an unprecedented scale, with several hundred megawatts in the last quarter alone.”

Subramaniy did not disclose his next move after Oracle. The now-former SVP joined the cloud giant in 2019, after serving more than three years at its rival Amazon Web Services (AWS) in a senior software development management position. At AWS, he managed its Hyperplane NFV solution.

Before joining AWS in 2015, Subramaniy worked for more than eight years in a similar role at Cisco where he looked after rack solutions and fabric extension technologies for Cisco's flagship data center core and aggregation Nexus Series switches. He also led technical teams for various switching, routing features, and protocols in Cisco's NX-OS for Nexus 7000 series and MDS product families, with a primary focus on attachment to the Nexus 2000 switch suite.
