Oracle, TELMEX to Build Second Oracle Cloud Region in Mexico

Oracle and TELMEX agreed on a strategic alliance that will provide Mexican organizations with enterprise-grade performance and security and powerful data, analytics, and multi cloud capabilities. Both companies announced a second Oracle Cloud Region in Mexico that will implement Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. 

“Oracle and Teléfonos de México (TELMEX) have announced an agreement to jointly offer Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services to customers across Mexico. Under the partnership, TELMEX-Triara will become the host partner for the second planned Oracle Cloud Region in Mexico. TELMEX-Triara will be able to offer OCI services as part of its portfolio through its cloud center of excellence, comprised of highly specialized infrastructure and Oracle applications professionals—in addition to supporting clients through professional and managed services,” reads Oracle’s press release. 

The increasing demand for cloud services in Mexico requires new sets of infrastructure, platform and application cloud services to fully meet the needs of the market and its stringent security standards. OCI allows customers to modernize applications with data and analytics, while providing innovative solutions and complete closures for their data centers. 

“We’re pleased to be working with one of Mexico’s largest telecommunications providers to bring OCI to organizations of all sizes and support their digital transformation initiatives. Together we will help boost digital innovation in Mexico and advance the Mexican government’s National Digital Strategy, which seeks to increase interoperability, digital identity, connectivity and inclusion and digital skills,” said Maribel Dos Santos, CEO and Senior Vice President, Oracle Mexico.

TELMEX-Triara will become one of the first OCI providers in Latin America. “One of the main objectives of this alliance is to help our clients in their digital transformation process, offering a complete and differentiated portfolio with the support of leading partners,” said Héctor Slim, CEO, TELMEX.

The data center will stretch over close to 800,000 square feet and boost over 180,000 square feet of certified and specialized rooms. TELMEX already has over 198,000 miles of fiber optic cables in Mexico.
