Telecom Italia to partner with Oracle to offer cloud services in Italy

Telecom Italia (MI:TLIT) (TIM) and its unit Noovle have signed a partnership with business software maker Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) to offer cloud services in Italy, the three companies said in a joint statement on Friday.

Under the partnership, the firms will offer services to enterprises and public entities to implement a so-called ‘multi-cloud strategy’, which would allow them to switch to an alternative provider in case of an outage.

TIM also selected Oracle to help migrate the group’s mission-critical data management workloads to the public cloud, they added.
