Oracle Wins Cloud Computing Deal With Zoom as Video Calls Surge

 

By Reuters

April 28, 2020

 

(Reuters) - Zoom Video Communications Inc said on Tuesday it has started using Oracle Corp's cloud computing service to help handle the surge in online video call volumes brought on by the novel coronavirus pandemic.

 

As corporations and schools shift to remote work and billions of people subject to stay-at-home orders seek ways to remain connected, Zoom has seen daily meeting participants rocket from 10 million in December to 300 million. But it has also experienced a backlash as the increased use exposed privacy and security flaws.

 

Zoom and Oracle did not disclose the size of the deal, but said traffic for "millions" of meeting participants is being handled by Oracle's cloud service and about 7 million gigabytes of Zoom data per day is flowing through Oracle servers.

Margaret Trudeau 'doing fine' after Montreal apartment fire, PM says

 

MONTREAL – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's mother, Margaret Trudeau, was taken to hospital late Monday night after being exposed to a fire that started on the terrace of her apartment building in Montreal.

 

Paramedics who were on the scene said they received a call about a woman in her 70s who had suffered smoke inhalation and possibly burns. They confirmed on Tuesday that her life is not in danger.

 

Trudeau is an author and a mental health advocate, and the former wife of the late Pierre Elliott Trudeau.

 

In mid March, she was self-isolating after spending time with Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau, who had tested positive for the COVID-19 virus upon returning from a trip to England.

 

"I was with Sophie, Justin's wife, over in London, in the UK, doing a big speaking event, and we were together," she said at the time. "I had lots of contact with Sophie, as we all did. There's 17 of us in self-isolation in our family now."
