We are in the middle of migration, and Oracle offers computing, which was a use case for us. Our on-premise servers were Oracle application servers, which helped us easily migrate to the platform. Using Oracle Infrastructure saved us time, money, and a lot of configuration time, and we were able to migrate the project in time without much hassle.

We use OCI as a means of Storage and also help with managing our MySQL databases. It allows us to run a number of containers depending on our database requirements. We also use the monitoring services for tracking performance and any alarms raised. It is useful for metrics and statistics, as well as using the mointoring service to log analyticsfor auditing purposes.

We use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as a key component of our business continuity and disaster recovery infrastructure plan, and to host mission critical databases that require high availability. These resources are currently used within a single department but we would like to broaden the scope to encompass additional departments throughout the organization.

We have a client infrastructure in GCP which we migrated to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Our main motive was to save the billing cost and in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure we achieved it by a significant margin. We use Terraform to initiate the infra consisting of multiple compute instances, managed Mysql and PostgreSQL and storage.

When I think about Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Compute, or actually just OCI in general, I think of three qualities: powerful, reliable, and affordable. Another feature that sets you apart from the competitors is ease of usage. High-performance processing capabilities are a hallmark of OCI, making it ideal for resource-intensive workloads and applications.

We use OCI for computing, storage, and networking. Both media dispatching and CMS hosting are the main functions we do in our. OCI performs the same performance but offers a lower price for PAYG users, so we can move a lot of cost-sensitive applications to OCI and get better internet without caring about hosting.

We have other Cloud Service Providers too but the reason for using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is the additional services it provides on the database side whether it is Oracle Autonomous database or the various Database Service and mainly it's unique Exadata features.
We have been using Oracle Database since more than 2 decades now and now as we have started our Cloud Journey the migration have been very smooth with its innovative tools and services.

For one of our recent healthcare clients, we have chosen Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for several important reasons. Firstly, OCI allows us to easily scale­ our IT resources, which is crucial in the healthcare industry where patient data and application needs can vary significantly. Security and compliance­ are of utmost importance in our sector, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides extensive se­curity features including encryption, acce­ss restrictions, and audit capabilities to ensure we meet stringe­nt requirements like HIPAA. Additionally, OCI's pay-as-you-go pricing model has allowed us to optimize expenses and reduce infrastructure costs. The autonomous database services offered by OCI have streamlined database administration tasks, resulting in significant cost savings. Lastly, we have utilized Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for disaste­r recovery and high availability to ensure uninterrupted business ope­rations.

We used Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for the Dev and Prod environment and mostly to serve up load-balanced application nodes. Oracle does a great job with VM instance management and offers a range of solutions, and we found that very helpful in supporting business requirements. It also solved for high performant compute service management for our applications.

We tested out a few of Oracle Cloud infrastructure services for selecting services among cloud providers for our company's migration to the cloud. Services include computing instances, object storage, MySQL database, and data science services. We wanted a seamless migration from an on-premise data center to cloud infrastructure for all workloads. For an enterprise of our size and needs, OCI seemed to be a good option.

In a heavily regulated business, we use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to safely and securely handle our documents and data. The Archival solution is flexible, secure, and very easy to set up. We also use it to create scalable microservices application deployments with low latency and API support. We use OCI to host our in-house SAAS applications, which require low latency and high availability for our bank's trading business. In addition, we need the proximity of the Cloud Infrastructure to certain market participants to further reduce latency.

I have used it to manage different development and testing environments based on oci virtual machine instances over which different tech stack is installed like Nosql db and app servers in particular oci tenancy. Also used the storage services provided by oci like object storage, block volumes and file storage systems , all services above were integrated to be used with OCI logging and monitoring services.

This has been used for collaborating, computing, data organizing, and instant retrieval. It solved problems such as addressing costs, security, and reliability. We were able to reduce our hardware storage costs with the initial outlay of the software program. This also addressed safety as we no longer needed to maintain on site systems.
We have a small office with employees in various locations so data was always accessible.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a service based cloud platform that our team is using for a chunk of our sites build in Python. There are some 20-30 sites that use this service mostly oriented towards the database storage and file system storage as these sites are pretty content heavy in nature. That being said, the traffic on these sites are really high and this is where Oracle Cloud Infrastructure helps with their high availability and concurrency.

Actually i was strugling with the performance thats why i discussed with my team to change the server then we started with the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and then we see performance of our server was too good. So that was the primarily concern for me and my team. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is the best selection for everyone who wants to run the project with sockets. Its too good with the sockets. The other things like source code management, auto deployment, load balancing then it can be a best option.

our company provides manage service. Therefore, we have few clients who use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
since we are providing solution to our clients therefore, we worked with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Our client wanted to Migrate On-premise workload to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

I use small compute instances to host different services for my clients. This could be a website or a web application, but for others it is DNS or email services. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure compute is very easy to spin up and have ready to get things up and running quickly. It is very useful to have beside other providers like AWS, Azure and Linode for example.

We use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure mostly for
1-Data storage management
2-Email Delivery

Storage Management- It's amazing; the setup can be done with ease. Extremely good UI and is very intuitive. Also, the service is really secure and reliable to store a large volume of data with security.
For Emails- We can easily send marketing or transactional emails in bulk without worrying about spam or bounced emails. We can easily maintain or track all the communications without spending a lot of time on it.
Our company runs a lot of marketing campaigns, and at that time, this tool comes in handy, which can help us send emails in bulk without spending a lot of time on it.
