Oracle has announced a groundbreaking partnership with Starlink, SpaceX’s satellite-based broadband service, to enhance high-speed global connectivity for its Enterprise Communications Platform (ECP). By integrating Starlink’s low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network, Oracle is enabling businesses and industries to maintain seamless, real-time communication—even in the most remote locations.
Revolutionizing Enterprise Connectivity
Oracle ECP provides a unified network infrastructure that combines fixed, mobile, and Starlink-powered satellite networks. This integration allows Oracle’s industry application customers to operate in over 100 countries and territories without connectivity limitations. Businesses can now leverage secure, high-speed internet for real-time video streaming, cloud applications, and IoT device management.
“Starlink provides reliable high-speed connectivity for those in areas where it has been historically difficult due to lack of infrastructure or natural obstacles,” said Jason Fritch, SpaceX’s Vice President of Starlink Enterprise Sales. “Providing fast and secure broadband to all corners of the world will help Oracle expand the reach of cloud technology and real-time information for its customers in invaluable ways.”
Key Benefits for Global Industries
Built on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, ECP enables real-time data transfer, network security monitoring, and application uptime assurance. With Oracle Cloud Connector, an edge computing component, businesses can host and manage video and audio applications remotely. This redundancy ensures uninterrupted connectivity even if primary networks fail.
Industries poised to benefit from this collaboration include:
- Healthcare: Rural hospitals and clinics can access Oracle’s cloud-based clinical applications in real time.
- Public Safety: First responders in disaster zones or low-network areas can remain connected.
- Construction & Utilities: Remote job sites can leverage cloud-based tools without relying on traditional infrastructure.
- Hospitality: Hotels and resorts in remote locations can maintain seamless guest services.
A New Era of Intelligent Communications
“By adding Starlink’s proven performance and expansive network to our established network relationships, we’re powering ubiquitous IoT connectivity, safeguarding mission-critical operations, and protecting data integrity during emergencies,” said Andrew Morawski, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Oracle Communications. “Together, we’re creating the intelligent communications foundation that will accelerate business transformation across industries around the world.”
This partnership represents a major step forward in enterprise communications, allowing businesses to operate efficiently in previously disconnected regions. As cloud technology and satellite connectivity continue to evolve, Oracle and Starlink are leading the way in making real-time communication truly global.
