🔌 AWS now offers a free 500 Mbps Interconnect - multicloud tier to simplify private connectivity between AWS and other public clouds. The open specification behind Interconnect is already adopted by Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, with Microsoft Azure planned later in 2026. The free tier provides a fully managed, resilient path (one local Tier 1 Interconnect per customer per region) and includes an Amazon CloudWatch Network Synthetic Monitor at no additional cost. Other CSPs set their own charges for their side of the link, so customers should review third-party pricing before creating an Interconnect.

🔔 AWS has opened the public preview of AWS Interconnect - multicloud with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), enabling customers to provision resilient, private connections between AWS and OCI from the us-east-1 (N. Virginia) Region. The service implements an open specification already used for Google Cloud (GA) and planned for Microsoft Azure in 2026. Customers can create preview connections via the AWS Management Console, CLI, or API, simplifying multicloud networking and reducing the need for DIY global network architectures.

The service enables AWS customers to access OCI-managed Oracle Exadata systems from within AWS data centers, supporting in-region data residency and migrations of on-prem Exadata and RAC workloads. Dublin, Mumbai, and Hyderabad offer two Availability Zones while London and Seoul currently provide one; CA-Central-1 and AP-Southeast-2 now support two AZs for enhanced production availability. To consume the service, request a private offer from Oracle via the AWS Marketplace and provision databases through the AWS Management Console.

📍 Oracle Database@AWS is now generally available in US‑East‑2 (Ohio), EU‑Central‑1 (Frankfurt), and AP‑Northeast‑1 (Tokyo). With this expansion, customers can run OCI Exadata Database Service, OCI Autonomous Database on Dedicated Infrastructure, and OCI Autonomous Recovery Service within AWS data centers across five regions. The launch simplifies migration of on‑premises Exadata workloads and helps meet in‑region data residency requirements. To consume the services, customers request a private offer from Oracle via the AWS Marketplace and provision resources through the AWS Management Console.

🔐 Check Point has extended CloudGuard Network Security to provide full auto-scaling support for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, enabling firewalls to grow and shrink automatically with workload demand. The integration leverages OCI Instance Pools to automate deployment and scaling of security gateways, while preserving centralized policy control. This update broadens CloudGuard’s native support across 20 public and private cloud vendors, delivering consistent security and operational agility as customers move workloads to OCI.
