Thai carrier Advanced Info Service is collaborating with Oracle to launch AIS Cloud, a locally owned and operated hyperscale cloud platform.
The Oracle Alloy cloud infrastructure platform gives organizations better control over the change management process to comply with existing regulations. “Giving our partners and customers more choice has long been a primary focus for [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure],” said Clay Magouyrk, executive vice president at OCI. “By providing our partners with the option to become cloud providers … they can build new services faster and address specific market and regulatory requirements.”
By deploying Oracle Alloy, AIS has become a regional cloud service provider, allowing it to sell cloud subscriptions to its end customers. According to Oracle, a partner can adopt a subscription structure similar to Oracle Cloud or customize it to match the market’s unique needs.
AIS CEO Somchai Lertsutiwong said that by collaborating with Oracle, Thai organizations can accelerate their digital modernization initiatives by tapping into cloud technology. “AIS Cloud, powered by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, will be key to transforming the core operations of businesses to capitalize on the market opportunities and create differentiation to take on the competition,” he said.
Oracle Alloy will be deployed in two data centers in Thailand, providing AIS customers with a cloud-based solution to accelerate their digital transformation and identify potential applications for artificial intelligence-backed technologies.
