Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) has reached a seven-year strategic cloud partnership with Oracle (NYSE:ORCL).
The ride-hailing firm will migrate some of its most critical workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as part of the deal. In addition to the migration, the companies will continue co-innovating on additional retail and delivery solutions that will evolve from the cloud partnership including consumer experiences with last-mile logistics.

Furthermore, Oracle (ORCL) will become a global Uber for Business client, selecting Uber as a preferred rideshare for its employees to travel and eat around the world.
Uber (UBER) is also reported to have forged a similar cloud deal with Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL).
"While Uber and Google have an existing partnership, the new cloud deal brings them closer together in other areas including launching new services. For instance, Uber will tap Google's mapping service for routing its vehicles, and Google's advertising product for its nascent ads business," said Google Cloud chief executive Thomas Kurian to WSJ.
