Claro and Oracle are bringing locally operated hyperscale cloud infrastructure to Argentina, giving businesses and government agencies access to more than 200 cloud and artificial intelligence services while keeping critical data within national borders.
The telecommunications operator will deploy Oracle Alloy at its Argentine data centres – with the companies describing the platform as the country’s first locally operated hyperscale cloud offering Oracle’s comprehensive infrastructure and AI portfolio.
The agreement targets growing demand for sovereign cloud services as Argentine organisations face increasing pressure to modernise IT infrastructure while meeting regulatory requirements governing sensitive information.
Oracle Alloy enables telecommunications providers and technology partners to operate cloud infrastructure under their own brands, combining Oracle Cloud Infrastructure capabilities with local operational control.
Claro will deliver services spanning computing, storage, databases, networking and AI, targeting sectors including financial services, healthcare, government, energy and retail.
Julio Porras Zadik, CEO, Claro Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay, said the deployment would give customers access to advanced cloud technologies without relying entirely on infrastructure operated outside Argentina.
The companies argue that local hosting will strengthen data sovereignty, reduce dependence on overseas infrastructure and support business continuity for organisations managing critical workloads.
Sofía Guidotti, Oracle’s Regional Vice President and General Manager, said the partnership extends Oracle’s distributed cloud strategy through locally managed services.
The launch will test demand for domestic hyperscale capacity as Argentina’s enterprises increasingly adopt AI applications requiring substantial computing resources, secure data processing and regulatory oversight across industries undergoing Digital Transformation.
