Equinix will provide global reach for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Oracle's Generation 2 Cloud Infrastructure is designed to create an infrastructure that matches the performance, control and governance of enterprise data centers, while delivering the scale, elasticity and cost savings of public clouds.
