Oracle plans to invest U.S. $2 billion over the next five years to meet the growing demand for its AI and cloud infrastructure in Germany. The investment will expand Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s (OCI) footprint in Germany and will include a significant expansion of AI infrastructure capacity in the Oracle Cloud Frankfurt Region. This will enable even more public and private organizations in Germany to take advantage of Oracle’s industry-leading AI and cloud computing services, including the latest sovereign AI and multicloud capabilities.
The expansion of OCI in Germany will help public and private sector organizations across key German industries—including its world-renowned manufacturing, automotive, renewable energy, scientific research, and healthcare sectors—migrate any type of workload to the cloud, modernize their applications, and take advantage of the latest AI innovations such as Oracle AI Agents. In addition, it will enable even more members of Germany’s AI startup and investor community to gain access to Oracle’s industry-leading infrastructure for AI training and inferencing, as well as its multicloud capabilities.
The investment will also provide increased cloud computing capacity to meet the growing demand for sovereign cloud and AI services in the German public sector and other strategic industries. Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud, with a cloud region located in Frankfurt, helps customers with data and applications that are sensitive, regulated, or of strategic regional importance, take advantage of the latest AI innovations and move to the cloud. With OCI’s distributed cloud, organizations can deploy 200+ AI and cloud services at the edge, in a customer’s datacenter, across clouds, or in the public cloud.
