Oracle is using connectivity from Starlink, the world’s first and largest satellite constellation using a low Earth orbit to deliver broadband internet, to enable high-speed communications for the Enterprise Communications Platform (ECP).
Now, customers using Oracle ECP to power Oracle’s extensive portfolio of industry applications can connect from almost anywhere, including some of the world’s most remote locations, and benefit from capabilities such as real-time video and audio streaming.
“Starlink provides reliable high-speed connectivity for those in areas where it has been historically difficult due to lack of infrastructure or natural obstacles,” said Jason Fritch, SpaceX’s Vice President of Starlink Enterprise Sales. “Providing fast and secure broadband to all corners of the world will help Oracle expand the reach of cloud technology and real-time information for its customers in invaluable ways.”
Oracle ECP unifies fixed, mobile, and the Starlink networks to securely manage and ensure cloud application delivery in remote or previously poorly connected areas. With the integration of Starlink’s network on Oracle ECP, Oracle industry applications customers can leverage satellite connectivity in a rapidly growing list of more than 100 countries and territories.
Real-time connectivity around the world
Built on the high performance and security of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle ECP delivers real-time information for connected devices, IoT endpoints, and mobile applications. It also secures and monitors the equipment against misuse or failures. With its edge component, Oracle Cloud Connector, Oracle ECP can remotely host and manage video and audio applications to address a variety of industry use cases. Its redundant backhaul connectivity enables Oracle industry applications customers to maximize application uptime—even during an outage on the primary connection.
Real-time connectivity is essential in supporting some of the biggest challenges in industries such as healthcare, construction and engineering, utilities, hospitality, and the public sector. For example, hospital systems could use Starlink and Oracle ECP to gain reliable access to Oracle’s clinical applications in metro hospitals through to suburban and rural clinics in desert or mountainous areas. Similarly, public safety agencies can leverage capabilities that help keep first responders connected and safe, even in areas with limited or no mobile coverage.
Andrew Morawski, executive vice president and general manager, Oracle Communications, said:
“By adding Starlink’s proven performance and expansive network to our established network relationships, we’re powering ubiquitous IoT connectivity, safeguarding mission-critical operations, and protecting data integrity during emergencies. Together, we’re creating the intelligent communications foundation that will accelerate business transformation across industries around the world.”
