Oracle’s final — or at least latest — frontier in its ongoing cloud war against Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the data center. Today, during an online Oracle Live event, CTO Larry Ellison announced Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer, a fully managed private cloud that brings all of Oracle’s cloud services into customers’ data centers, as a challenge to AWS Outposts.

This includes all of Oracle’s 50-plus cloud services and its Autonomous Database, which until now was only available in Oracle’s public cloud. “It’s everything — everything in the gen 2 public cloud,” Ellison said, adding that Oracle manages and maintains the hardware, and Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer uses the same management console as Oracle’s public cloud. Additionally, the service level agreements and prices are the same across both. “No one, not Amazon, not Microsoft, not Google, nobody gives you a complete public cloud behind your firewall dedicated to you.”

Nomura Research Institute, Japan’s largest consulting firm and IT services provider, is an early customer. NRI chose Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer to comply with data sovereignty regulations, which Ellison expects will be a big draw for the product — and a reason for customers to go with Oracle’s cloud options instead of AWS Outposts. “Your data never leaves your data center,” he said. “Unless you want it to. That’s simply not true with AWS Outposts. With AWS Outposts, your data leaves your data center every single day, because all the daily backups are sent from AWS Outposts into the AWS public cloud.”

AWS first announced Outposts two years ago, and then made available the on-premises infrastructure and cloud services late last year.

In usual Ellison fashion, he spent a good amount of time explaining why Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer is the better data center option compared to AWS Outposts. Ellison said Oracle is 50 times faster, it’s cheaper, and it offers customers more cloud services.

“We have over 50 services in our public cloud, therefore we have over 50 services in our Dedicated Region compared to AWS’ four,” he said. While AWS doesn’t offer 50 cloud services on AWS Outposts, it does offer six —Amazon EC2, Amazon EBS, Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), and Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR) — and plans to add S3 storage this year.

Additionally, Ellison said the compliance certifications and management are the same across Oracle’s public cloud and a dedicated region. “AWS Outposts is nothing like that,” he said. “Not even close.”

However, despite Ellison’s long-standing cloud superiority claims, AWS continues to dominate Oracle in the cloud market. According to Synergy Research’s most recent public cloud market share report, AWS holds 33% share compared to Oracle’s 2%.
