  • Written by: Daily Bulletin

The Oracle Cloud Distribution Program will enhance, diversify, and strengthen Ingram Micro's cloud offerings across Australia

SYDNEY, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ingram Micro, a leading global technology provider and

Oracle distribution partner, today announced that it has joined the Oracle Cloud Distribution Program to expand access to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) in Australia and help resellers accelerate cloud adoption and AI innovation. Through this program, Ingram Micro will expand access to its OCI offerings in Australia to help partners accelerate cloud adoption and AI innovation across Australia.

The Oracle Cloud Distribution Program is a regional program that strengthens partnerships with regional and country-specific cloud distributors to expand OCI into new and existing markets, with a focus on small and midsize businesses. Oracle distribution partners are members of Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), Oracle's global program designed to help partner companies develop, sell, and implement Oracle cloud and on-premises solutions. OPN provides technical training, marketing resources, and commercial incentives to accelerate business growth across Oracle platforms.

"Oracle is one of the world's most recognised enterprise technology companies, and we are incredibly proud to welcome its portfolio to Ingram Micro in Australia," said Hope McGarry, vice president and chief country executive, Australia, Ingram Micro. "We see significant opportunity across cloud, data, and AI, while also giving our partners access to Oracle's broader technology portfolio. This expands the choices available to our partners and helps them address more of their customers' technology priorities through a single distribution relationship, while continuing to choose the solutions and suppliers that best meet their customers' needs. Our role is to make Oracle's capabilities easier to access, adopt, and scale across the Australian channel."

The Oracle Cloud Distribution Program will help Ingram Micro partners expand OCI offerings to small and midsize businesses, support innovation, and meet growing demand for enterprise cloud services. In addition, Ingram Micro partners will also be able to access Oracle's broader portfolio of database, data management, and enterprise technologies through Ingram Micro. Ingram Micro plans to support the collaboration with dedicated sales and technical resources, partner recruitment, enablement, demand generation activities, and go-to-market investment to help partners build sustainable Oracle practices across the channel ecosystem in Australia. To help partners discover, manage, and develop Oracle opportunities across the customer lifecycle, Ingram Micro will use its AI-powered Xvantage™ platform.

"Organisations in Australia are increasingly looking to cloud infrastructure and AI services to help modernise critical workloads and support innovation," said Stephen Bovis, regional managing director, Australia and New Zealand, Oracle. "By working with Ingram Micro, we are extending access to OCI through one of Australia's largest technology partner ecosystems. Together, Oracle and Ingram Micro intend to make Oracle's cloud and AI capabilities more accessible through the Australian partner ecosystem while providing enablement and support to help them build long-term cloud practices."

"Cloud and AI are central to this relationship, but the opportunity is much broader," said Kaaren Lewis, director, Advanced Solutions, Cloud, Cybersecurity & AI, Ingram Micro. "Oracle offers capabilities across cloud infrastructure, AI, data, databases, applications, and enterprise technology. Together with Oracle's multicloud approach, this gives our partners access to the world's leading cloud platforms, while also opening new opportunities across the broader Oracle portfolio. We will combine that technology with Ingram Micro's specialist expertise, enablement, and go-to-market support to help partners build capabilities and create new customer opportunities."
