Oracle Expands Cloud Coverage To Over 100 Regions
CIODIVE, Tuesday, March 11th, 2025
The company aims to double its capacity this year as demand for AI compute 'continues to dramatically outstrip supply,' Oracle CEO Safra Catz said Monday.
Oracle's global cloud estate grew to 101 regions as the company's infrastructure and software services revenues increased 23% year over year during the quarter to $6.2 billion, CEO Safra Catz said Monday, speaking during a Q3 2025 earnings call.
'We marked a milestone this quarter as we crossed into triple digits,' Catz said of the cloud expansion. 'It's just a matter of time before we have more cloud regions than all of our competitors combined.'
Oracle embarked on an aggressive buildout a year ago, pledging to invest $10 billion in infrastructure to support cloud as the technology became the provider's dominant revenue stream. The company had 68 active cloud regions during Q3 2024, generating $5.1 billion in revenue.
