Oracle and Google Cloud Partner to Offer Gemini AI Models via Oracle Cloud
Oracle (ORCL.N) and Alphabet (GOOGL.O) announced on Thursday that their cloud computing divisions have reached an agreement to make Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence models available through Oracle’s cloud services and business applications. The collaboration allows developers to leverage Google’s models for generating text, video, images, and audio.
The deal extends to businesses using Oracle applications for corporate finance, human resources, and supply chain management, enabling them to integrate Google’s AI capabilities directly into these tools. While the AI models will run on Google’s servers, Oracle will integrate access through Google’s Vertex AI platform, allowing customers to use Oracle cloud credits to pay for the services. Financial terms between the companies were not disclosed.
This partnership follows a similar arrangement Oracle made with Elon Musk’s xAI in June and aligns with Oracle’s strategy to offer customers multiple AI options instead of focusing solely on its own technology. For Google, the collaboration broadens the reach of its cloud services and aims to attract corporate clients from competitors like Microsoft (MSFT.O).
