Business technology major Oracle announced that the Oracle Cloud Platform has been validated to develop applications using India Stack services.
India Stack is a set of APIs that allows developers working with government, businesses, and startups to utilize digital infrastructure to deliver secure presence-less, paperless, and cashless service delivery.
With this validation, developers and partners can leverage Oracle Cloud at Customer to create and test next generation cloud applications that invoke core India Stack APIs, including Aadhaar Authentication and eKYC, eSign and DigiLocker.
“With the validation of India Stack with Oracle Cloud, we are empowering India’s developer and partner community to deliver applications that meet regulatory requirements and protect the interests of India’s users and organizations,” said Amit Zavery, senior vice president, Oracle Cloud Platform and Middleware.
Developers gain choice and flexibility of where to deploy their India Stack-based applications – inside their own datacenter, in the Oracle Cloud, or in a traditional on-premises environment.
Leveraging Oracle’s Cloud PaaS and IaaS, Oracle Cloud at Customer offerings enable customers to innovate faster, while meeting regulatory, data sovereignty and residency requirements behind their firewall.
Oracle said India Stack APIs can be leveraged with Oracle SaaS applications for India specific enhancements.
Oracle said daily transactions have already topped 20 million and are expected to soon reach more than 100 million.
ezeDox, a startup that is changing the way documents and related processes are produced, stored, and consumed digitally, is one of the early adopters of the India Stack.
“Leveraging India Stack through Oracle Cloud is the most open and modern way for our developers to take advantage of this unique digital infrastructure for the disruptive applications we’re building,” said Veerendra Mishra, founder of ezeDox.
Meanwhile, Oracle has expanded Oracle Cloud Platform’s integration offerings with the availability of Oracle API Platform Cloud Service.
Bringing together API-first design and governance capabilities from recently acquired Apiary and API management from Oracle, the new cloud service delivers capabilities for designing, prototyping, documenting, testing, and managing the proliferation of critical APIs.
