Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer is a standalone cloud region that provides all the benefits of a public cloud without leaking customer data out of a NEOM data center, noting that no other cloud provider offers a full-featured public cloud with all services on-premises.
NEOM will be able to securely operate its entire portfolio of IT businesses on a single-tenant, resilient cloud that features SLAs for availability, management, and performance as a single availability domain in Oracle’s public cloud.
