IBM AI Watsonx Integrates With Oracle Cloud To Boost Enterprise Productivity

International Business Machines Corporation IBM on Tuesday disclosed a collaboration with Oracle Corporation ORCL to integrate IBM’s premier AI platform, Watsonx, with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

This latest development in their partnership aims to leverage OCI’s built-in AI capabilities to foster a new wave of AI-powered productivity and efficiency across businesses, particularly through multi-agentic systems.

IBM’s Watsonx Orchestrate AI agents will be available on OCI in July, integrating with Oracle’s AI Agent Studio and OCI AI services for unified multi-agent management across Oracle and non-Oracle systems.

Initially focused on HR, watsonx Orchestrate on OCI (Red Hat OpenShift) supports various cloud regions and hybrid deployments, performing AI inferencing on OCI.

Greg Pavlik, executive vice president, AI and Data Management Services, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, said, “IBM and Oracle have been collaborating to drive customer success for decades, and our expanded partnership will provide customers new ways to help transform their businesses with AI.”

In a separate release, IBM introduced new hybrid cloud technologies designed to overcome traditional obstacles in scaling enterprise AI.

The company projects that the app landscape will explode to over a billion by 2028, intensifying the pressure on organizations to achieve scalability across increasingly complex and fragmented IT ecosystems.

In April, the company disclosed a $150 billion investment plan in the U.S. over the next five years to drive economic growth and strengthen its position as a global computing leader.

Investors can gain exposure to the stock via First Trust NASDAQ Technology Dividend Index Fund TDIV and FT Vest Technology Dividend Target Income ETF TDVI.

Price Action: IBM shares are down 0.59% at $247.70 premarket at the last check on Tuesday.
