If you're looking for a cloud service that spans multicloud environments and offers direct interconnection to Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is a good choice. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a suite of more than 100 cloud services that can be deployed in public clouds, on-premises or in a hybrid environment. It spans multicloud, public cloud, hybrid cloud and dedicated cloud services, including developer services, integration services, analytics and business intelligence, AI and machine learning, big data and data lake, compute, storage, containers and functions, and networking. OCI is designed to help customers meet digital sovereignty requirements and has competitive pricing with no long-term commitments. It also offers direct interconnection to Microsoft Azure, so it's a good option for your needs.
Another option is Pulumi, an open-source infrastructure as code (IaC) SDK that lets developers write code in their preferred programming language to create, deploy and manage infrastructure across multiple clouds. Pulumi supports many cloud providers, including AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, and offers features like policy-as-code, automated testing and deployments that follow organizational standards. It's designed to improve productivity, scalability and collaboration for infrastructure operations, so it's a good option for teams that need a cloud management solution that's flexible and scalable.
If you want a more complete cloud platform, Microsoft Cloud is a good option. Although it's centered on Microsoft's own ecosystem, it focuses on digital and app innovation, data and AI, business applications and modern work. The platform offers a range of services, including Microsoft Copilot, cloud endpoints and sustainability tracking. It also offers industry-specific modular solutions and integrated security management, which can be useful for companies already in the Microsoft stack.
