This partnership aims to help enterprises and governments accelerate their AI initiatives by combining Oracle’s distributed cloud, AI infrastructure, and sovereign AI capabilities with Palantir’s leading AI and decision acceleration platforms.

Rand Waldron, Oracle vice president, highlighted that the combination of Oracle’s cloud infrastructure with Palantir’s decision acceleration platforms will allow customers to rapidly scale their AI capabilities while meeting data sovereignty and security standards. This collaboration has resulted in Palantir’s AI platform and Foundry being certified on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, jointly supported, and available in distributed cloud offerings.

Despite this positive performance, the stock initially traded lower but has since recovered, reaching new 52-week highs this week as software and artificial intelligence continue to be strong themes in the market.

As of Monday’s close, Palantir shares were up 0.65% at $27.88. The stock continued to trend upwards on Tuesday morning, trading at $27.89 at the time of publication.
