TheCUBE Research finds Oracle’s AI database move could unlock bigger multicloud returns
A new economic analysis from theCUBE Research found that migrating from a fragmented, on-premises data estate to Oracle Corp.’s Autonomous AI Database on Multicloud can deliver meaningful modernization value — and substantially larger returns when organizations use the platform to accelerate AI projects.
The report, written by theCUBE Research analysts Dave Vellante and David Floyer, evaluates the economics of the move over a five-year period. It examines two modeled use cases: One focused only on infrastructure and service modernization and another that adds 17 AI projects on top of that modernized foundation.
Oracle Autonomous AI Database on Multicloud gives enterprises the choice of running in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or on Oracle managed services in Amazon Web Services Inc., Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. Offering multimodal data management, the database supports transactional and analytical processing while helping standardize and automate database operations.
But theCUBE Research’s central finding is that the move should be viewed as more than a database migration. The report frames it as a platform decision that can reduce operational friction, improve governance and help enterprises build AI proficiency sooner.
