Japan-based Nomura Research Institute (NRI) has deployed Oracle Alloy in its data centers.
The consulting service and system solutions provider will now be able to offer its customers more than 100 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services.
Oracle Alloy launched in 2022 and is a cloud infrastructure platform that enables MSPs to become cloud providers using Oracle technology.
Partners can operate Oracle Alloy independently in their data centers and fully control its operations, thus the partner effectively becomes a regional cloud service provider.
NRI previously migrated its financial Software-as-a-Service solutions to OCI Dedicated Regions in its Tokyo and Osaka data centers in 2022. Following that migration, customers began asking for cloud solutions that could support financial governance and digital sovereignty.
“With Oracle Alloy, we provide new, customized cloud services while also helping our customers take advantage of the latest OCI services and technologies to move their existing systems to the cloud and modernize them,” said Shigekazu Ohmoto, senior corporate managing director, NRI. “In addition, we plan to utilize OCI’s AI infrastructure to deliver sovereign AI capabilities to our customers and expand the development of our AI applications. This will further benefit the growth of our business while contributing to the success of our customers.”
“NRI has been pushing the boundaries with its forward-looking technology strategy for some time and it’s been a privilege to collaborate with its team,” said Karan Batta, senior vice president, OCI. “With Oracle Alloy, NRI can provide new services and additional business value to its financial services customers in Japan. We look forward to continuing to collaborate with NRI to bring cloud services to more customers in Japan.”
NRI, according to its website, owns and operates three data centers in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and two in Osaka.
