Oracle offers integrated suites of applications plus secure, autonomous infrastructure in the Oracle Cloud. Among its accomplishments, the company developed the world’s first autonomous database. Today, the company offers the industry’s broadest and deepest suite of AI-powered cloud applications. Last month, Oracle made two AI-related announcements of importance to its enterprise customers
On August 14, Oracle announced that it had expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to offer customers access to Google’s most advanced AI models, starting with Gemini 2.5, via Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Generative AI service. Oracle customers can now utilize the latest Gemini models to build AI agents for a wide range of use cases including multimodal understanding, advanced coding and software development tasks, productivity and workflow automation, and research and knowledge retrieval.
The company plans to make Google’s entire range of Gemini models available via OCI Generative AI service through new integrations with Vertex AI, including cutting edge models for video, image, speech, and music generation and specialized industry models like MedLM. In the future, Oracle will collaborate with Google Cloud to make Gemini models via Vertex AI available as an option within Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, providing customers with a broader choice to enhance workflows in finance, HR, supply chain, sales, service, and marketing. Oracle customers can use their existing Oracle Universal Credits to start leveraging Google’s Gemini models.
“Oracle has been intentional in offering model choices curated for the enterprise, spanning open and proprietary models,” according to Clay Magouyrk, President of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. “The availability of Gemini on OCI Generative AI service highlights our focus on delivering powerful, secure, and cost-effective AI solutions that help customers drive innovation and achieve their business goals.”
On August 18, Oracle announced it had deployed OpenAI GPT-5 across its database portfolio and suite of SaaS applications, including Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, Oracle NetSuite, and Oracle Industry Applications, such as Oracle Health. By uniting trusted business data with frontier AI, Oracle officials say it is enabling customers to natively leverage sophisticated coding and reasoning capabilities in their business-critical workflows.
GPT-5 is OpenAI’s smartest, fastest, and most useful model yet. Designed specifically to excel at code generation, editing, and debugging, GPT-5 also brings advanced agentic capabilities and sophisticated reasoning to enterprise contexts. GPT-5 in the API is available in three sizes and provides flexibility and scalability to meet diverse customer needs. It is also available in ChatGPT Enterprise.
With the development of GPT-5, Oracle will help customers enhance multistep reasoning and orchestration across business processes; accelerate code generation, bug resolution, and documentation; and increase accuracy and depth in business insights and recommendations, officials say.
“The combination of industry-leading AI for data capabilities of Oracle Database 23ai and GPT-5 will help enterprises achieve breakthrough insights, innovations, and productivity,” according to Kris Rice, Senior Vice President for Database Software Development at Oracle. “Oracle AI Vector and Select AI together with GPT-5 enable easier and more effective data search and analysis. Oracle’s SQLcl MCP Server enables GPT-5 to easily access data in Oracle Database. These capabilities enable users to search across all their data, run secure AI-powered operations, and use generative AI directly from SQL—helping to unlock the full potential of AI on enterprise data.”
