Why Partner with Oracle

The Oracle PartnerNetwork will empower your company with exceptional resources to distinguish your offerings from the competition, seize opportunities, and increase your sales.

Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud is the world's first and only integrated cloud machine—hardware and software engineered together to provide a "cloud in a box". Exalogic is designed to revolutionize data center consolidation, enabling enterprises to bring together tens, hundreds, or even thousands of disparate, mission-critical, performance-sensitive workloads with maximum reliability, availability, and security. Oracle Exalogic's unique high-bandwidth, low-latency interconnect fabric means that complex, distributed applications can run with a responsiveness simply not achievable with typical servers used in data centers today.

World's Best Foundation for Cloud Computing

Oracle Exalogic's extreme performance, massive scale, and hardware-based application isolation make it the ideal platform for consolidating many existing applications on a single platform. Applications can be migrated unchanged and then run with higher performance and reliability at a cost that can be as much as 60 percent lower than for traditional environments.

Exalogic's management automation coupled with the dynamic scalability of Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Coherence, make it the ideal foundation for elastic cloud infrastructure.
- Software and hardware engineered together—Oracle Exalogic is the world's only integrated cloud machine where server hardware and middleware software have been engineered together for maximum performance with minimum set-up and minimum operational cost.
- Fastest Java performance—Only Oracle Exalogic provides a tuned combination of hardware and software that allows different components of a Java application to interact with essentially zero-copy I/O, enabling as much as 12x improvement in handling workloads such as Web requests.
- Ideal for mission-critical private cloud—Oracle Exalogic's interconnect architecture enables robust isolation for processes and near-instant failover of cluster nodes, allowing consolidation of multiple, unrelated applications with extremely high reliability and elastic capacity.
