CenturyLink Public Cloud (discontinued) vs. Oracle Big Data Cloud Service

I believe for small to mid business application hosting Centurylink provides an adequate service. When moving to larger scale business enviornments I believe the limitations, slowness is going to become a problem

Oracle Big Data SQL Cloud Service is useful for large organizations with more than 5,000 employees where it will help manage the company's human resources information, and also useful for companies who have a big number of items and so one, it's perfect for large organizations. Unfortunately, this makes it an expensive solution for small to medium organizations.

• Perhaps ease of use - it's not convoluted but a little more streamlined of an interface would be great
• Make your presence more known - in a world of heavily advertised cloud options CenturyLink is not at the top of the pile and I think it may be due to a lack of awareness in the business community. Advertise!
• Streamline functionality - interface can be a little slow at times.

I did not select the application hosting environment - I was a user. That being said I do not have much of a voice in the difference between hosted services that I have experienced.
