Oracle and Nextcloud, a European company, today announced a partnership that will bring Nextcloud Hub, an open-source content collaboration platform that enables teams to collaborate across mobile, desktop, and web interfaces, to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Government and enterprise customers will be able to deploy Nextcloud Hub across OCI’s sovereign cloud solutions, including public, government, dedicated, and air-gapped regions.
“OCI provides Nextcloud government and business customers with the performance, security, and reliability they need to deliver on their mission and accelerate growth,” said Frank Karlitschek, CEO, Nextcloud. “We are excited to offer Nextcloud Hub on OCI and with automated scaling, robust security features, and predictable pricing we will be able to help our customers meet user demand on a real-time basis.”
Deploy Nextcloud Hub across OCI’s sovereign cloud solutions
Oracle government and enterprise customers will be able to deploy the full suite of Nextcloud products in a secure, hyperscale cloud environment that meets their data privacy and sovereignty requirements and adheres to Oracle’s strict security standards. OCI’s sovereign cloud solutions provide customers with:
• Dedicated infrastructure: Provides physical and logical isolation to protect workloads from interference or exposure to other tenants.
• Independent control planes: Enables full administrative and operational separation, giving local teams complete autonomy over their cloud environments.
• Customer-managed encryption: Allows customers to maintain full control of encryption keys, helping ensure only authorized personnel can access sensitive data.
• Region-specific support and operations: Allows all sovereign cloud support, operations, and incident response activities to be conducted by Oracle personnel based in the region to help ensure compliance with applicable, local data sovereignty laws.
• Compliant cloud framework: Meets key international and regional standards such as FedRAMP High and PCI DSS to support customer compliance with regulatory requirements.
“Nextcloud Hub on OCI brings secure office and collaboration software to government and enterprise customers,” said Rand Waldron, vice president, Oracle. “This partnership helps provide a compliant environment where teams can communicate with confidence, knowing that our sovereign cloud options comply with data, operational, and other sovereignty regulations.”
By running Nextcloud Hub on OCI via the Oracle Cloud Marketplace or bringing their own license, government and enterprise customers will gain access to powerful collaboration tools designed to boost productivity, streamline workflows, and enhance team communication. NextCloud’s solutions hub includes:
• Nextcloud Files: Enables secure file sharing and collaborative document editing across mobile, desktop, and web interfaces.
• Nextcloud Talk: Facilitates seamless communication through chat and video conferencing anytime, anywhere, and on any device.
• Nextcloud Groupware: Offers integrated web mail, calendaring, and task management with standards-based interopability.
• Nextcloud Office: Unlocks real-time document collaboration through tight integration with Nextcloud Files and Nextcloud Talk.
• Nextcloud Assistant: Provides a private, local AI assistant to help automate routine tasks and improve efficiency.
