future Cloud The computing market is set to become more close and interconnected, resulting in a multi-cloud approach that is more beneficial for businesses everywhere, the Oracle founder claimed.
speaking in Oracle Cloud World 2022 In a keynote address focused on “the next generation of cloud technology,” Larry Ellison outlined his vision for the upcoming cloud market, calling for an end to “walled gardens” to give businesses more freedom to choose and experiment.
He said, “There has to be an internet of clouds, the clouds have to be interconnected, and you have to be able to mix and match between multiple clouds… the garden walls are collapsing.”

Ellison noted the number of companies and service providers that currently have to deploy new infrastructure services on multiple clouds. However, he thinks a better idea is to connect all the major cloud services to provide customers with options – creating a “cloud internet” – or multi-cloud.
Ellison noted that Oracle’s work with Microsoft helped start this, helping remove data entry and exit feeds to help improve adoption, he notes, meaning that accessing your data is not only fast and free — but also much simpler.
The company has announced that Oracle MySQL HeatWave database tools are now available for Microsoft Azure, and is once again looking to provide its users with the options they need to get the most out of their data.
“The idea, again, is to provide customers with options,” Ellison concluded. “That’s the main thing (and) I think in the end all the clouds will be interconnected, and the customers will have a choice.”
