Expert Statements
Kevork Kechichian, Executive vice president and general manager, Intel Data Center Group
“As AI agents scale, they need processors that can run software, move and secure data, and accelerate inference. Xeon brings together performance and hardware-based confidential computing, giving organizations a trusted, cost-effective foundation for AI at scale”
Kevork Kechichian, Executive vice president and general manager, Intel Data Center Group
“Our expanded collaboration with Oracle is intended to combine Intel's multigenerational roadmap with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's technology to help customers put AI to work faster and more cost-effectively.”
Pradeep Vincent, Executive vice president, compute and AI infrastructure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle
“Enterprise AI depends on the applications, data, and tools that let an agent complete useful work”
Pradeep Vincent, Executive vice president, compute and AI infrastructure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle
“Our expanded collaboration with Intel is intended to help us grow the compute capacity behind those workloads and support plans to bring enhanced Xeon capabilities to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure through X14. Customers are expected to gain a path to build and scale AI using the enterprise software environments they already rely on.”
Intel and Oracle Plan Expanded Collaboration to Support Enterprise and Agentic AI on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
ORACLE AI WORLD -- Intel and Oracle today announced plans for a multiyear collaboration intended to expand Intel® Xeon®-based computing on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The collaboration is intended to meet the growing demand for enterprise applications, agentic AI, and inference, and is expected to span current and future Xeon platforms, including planned OCI X14 offerings based on Intel’s next-generation server processor codenamed Diamond Rapids.
