Oracle launches AI Security Mesh

What's new: Oracle announced AI Security Mesh, using OpenAI cyber models to investigate vulnerabilities, test proposed fixes, and require customer approval before remediation changes.

Business value

Security teams can shorten evidence gathering and fix validation while retaining change-control gates, task-scoped agent access, and separation of duties.

Request POC for this use case

Oracle manages AI security testing

What's new: Oracle announced AI Security Mesh, a managed service that maps authorized systems, tests attack paths, validates findings, and maintains a private assessment knowledge base.

Business value

Teams can run governed vulnerability discovery across cloud and on-premises estates without operating agentic security-testing infrastructure themselves.

Google TPUs planned for OCI

What's new: Oracle and Google announced plans to make Google TPUs available through OCI in 2027 for training, post-training, inference, and agentic workloads.

Business value

OCI buyers could compare TPU and GPU architectures for workload-specific performance and cost choices once service configurations become available.

Request POC for this use case
10

Salesforce adds Google UCP checkout

What's new: Salesforce said UCP-powered checkout on Google is live for B2C Commerce, alongside conversational catalog search, automated categorization, and inventory-aware discovery updates.

Business value

Commerce teams can extend product discovery and checkout to Google while reducing manual catalog work and retaining merchant-of-record responsibilities.

11

Google Cloud VMware reaches GA

What's new: Google Cloud made its self-managed VMware Cloud Foundation solution generally available on dedicated bare metal, with full administrative access across core VCF components.

Business value

Infrastructure teams can exit data centers or modernize in phases while retaining existing VMware operating practices, tools, and maintenance control.

Request POC for this use case
12

Oracle launches AI Cost Advisor

What's new: Oracle launched Cost Advisor for AI in Limited Availability through Fusion Cloud EPM, linking AI usage and spend to budgets, owners, approvals, and cost centers.

Business value

Finance and AI platform teams can identify unowned spend, anomalies, and budget overruns before fragmented model costs become embedded across business units.

Request POC for this use case
13

TPUs move closer to Oracle data

What's new: Google and Oracle announced plans to deploy TPU capacity on OCI beginning in 2027, connecting clusters with Oracle databases, storage, and networking.

Business value

Oracle-centric teams could run fine-tuning and inference nearer to systems of record, reducing cross-cloud movement and operational complexity if delivered.

Request POC for this use case
14

Vera Rubin becomes available on OCI

What's new: NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and Vera CPUs are generally available on OCI for GPU-intensive training and serving alongside CPU-intensive agent tasks.

Business value

Platform teams can place accelerator-heavy and CPU-heavy AI execution components on a shared OCI infrastructure option, subject to capacity validation.

Request POC for this use case
15

Gemini Robotics enters public preview

What's new: Google Cloud put Gemini Robotics Embodied Reasoning 2 into public preview for multimodal planning, tool use, task verification, and self-correction in robotics workflows.

Business value

Industrial and field teams can prototype governed robot orchestration with cloud simulation, evaluation, lifecycle management, and separate physical safety validation.
