Oracle is redefining enterprise data management with Oracle AI Database 26ai, the next-generation, AI-native release of its flagship platform. Designed to bring AI directly to enterprise data, 26ai integrates relational, JSON, graph, and vector data models within a single, unified engine. This approach enables organizations to operationalize AI securely and efficiently, wherever their data resides, without costly or complex data movement.
By unifying all data types in the database, Oracle AI Database 26ai transforms the data foundation itself into an intelligent layer that can reason, adapt, and automate. The result is a simpler, better governed, and more powerful architecture that enables faster innovation, trusted insights, and improved business outcomes.
