We use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for public cloud compute, storage, and database resources, to host web applications and to perform business intelligence, data engineering, and data warehousing.

More specifically, we have over 100 retail outlets with individual point-of-sale and medical dispense applications and their data, and use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to aid us in aggregating data for corporate reporting, for analysing and mining data, and also for managing promotional pricing back to stores.
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has a generous free tier, moreso than other hyperscalers, with an always-free tier that guarantees certain products are always free
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure allows you to size VMs with differing combinations of CPU and RAM, which is contrary to other hyperscalers that have specific pre-defined combinations only
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure regularly provides free certification exam offers
  • This may be kind of obvious, but Oracle Cloud Infrastructure favours Oracle's own database products and there is limited opportunity to use, say, SQL Server as a serverless/managed database product. Thus if you use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure but want a non-Oracle DB you may need to run it on your own VM or migrate to something else
  • Other hyperscalers, such as GCP, have a greater focus/emphasis on AI and models, and this is something Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is not yet as well-established in
  • Other hyperscalers, such as Azure, have greater unification around its data/BI products and tools than Oracle Cloud Infrastructure currently has
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is well-suited for organisations that use the Oracle database and can benefit from a fully autonomous/self-healing/self-patching database engine.

Additionally, it is well-suited for any organisation that may require non-standard machine types - such as small CPU but lots of RAM, or vice-versa, because you can create your own machine shapes.

Further, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is well-suited for companies that want to get into the cloud and are concerned by costs because Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has a generous always-free tier that provides for some small machines and databases at no cost. For small web apps it's a no-brainer, really.

However, where Oracle Cloud Infrastructure may be well less-suited is if you have a mature, expert engineering team who are, say, Microsoft-focused or with a lot of AWS experience because there may be a learning curve to get up to speed on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is used to host many of our applications that run our business. A major focus of our business over the past few years has been to shift from on-prem computing to cloud technologies for cost savings and reliability, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has allowed us to do that. The ROI has been terrific and we are pleased with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure at the moment.
  • scaling up when demand hits
  • easy configuration
  • solid front-end support.
  • In my opinion, the learning curve is relatively steep.
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure will take time to implement and tune
  • Pricing strategy could be better defined and explained.
If you are looking to migrate your on-prem apps to the cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure would be a good choice to host your apps going forward. It has a wide range of computing options and platforms. The support is good and easy to find a real person to talk to, which in the computing world is sometimes hard to find.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is an enterprise-ready solution, so I don't think it would be appropriate for a smaller shop looking to migrate to the cloud. Too much of a learning curve along with a confusing pricing strategy would turn me off for smaller companies.

we use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure with our EBS systems, payment systems and vendor management. I would say that the biggest issues would be the price, negotiating with Oracle is definitely tricky. you need a good team that understands the uses of all the Oracle products and how to save money where you can.
  • transactions
  • cloud processes
  • cost optimization
  • understanding their products
in my experience, using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for purchasing and transactional processes for either in manufacturing or in the financial environment, their services have been good. there have been times when the system has gone down and we need Oracles help to get the system back up, but it has been rare. we do also appreciate the help with upgrades, doing system upgrades can be tricky but with their assistance, it has been productive.

We use Oracle Cloud for most of our production and test environment web and application hosting needs. Using their affordable geolocated services, we are able to provide hosting services without breaking the budget. With the wide range of services on offer, there is also the scope to grow our cloud-based infrastructure as and when it needs to.
  • Excellent reliability.
  • Good compatibility.
  • Great cost-benefit ratio for ARM servers.
  • Windows hosting is not as good as Azure.
  • Documentation is not as good as AWS.
  • Configuration can be overwhelming at first.
Oracle Cloud is an excellent choice if you want to get started with cloud hosting. Their always-free tier provides an excellent range of services to help you determine if cloud hosting is right for you, especially if your requirements are for Linux and are not restricted to the x86 architecture. Oracle Cloud is likely less appropriate if your requirements are to host with Windows - it is supported to host Windows servers, but not as well supported as Microsoft's cloud offering.

The main reason for using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is the Oracle database services provided in OCI like Autonomous database, Oracle Base Service and Exadata etc. Oracle is putting lots of innovations in it's Oracle database running into OCI and features being released first in the Oracle cloud. For our product cloud journey we were looking for the best place to run the Oracle database.
  • Autonomous database.
  • Oracle Database Base service.
  • We can start with the small size of the Oracle Database scale-up as demand grows as opposed to the On-Premise Oracle Database setup.
  • No upfront investment in Oracle Database.
  • The latest and greatest feature is firstly available in the OCI for Oracle Database.
  • Costs are still high for using the Oracle Database.
  • Oracle Cloud is still lacking lots of good features which is available in the clouds like Azure, AWS, or GCP.
  • There should be open-source options & services available in the OCI.
If your product is using the Oracle Database and wants to move into the Cloud, then Oracle Cloud Infrastructure would be the best option. Multi-cloud operation is today's new reality; hence, your application could run in other Cloud platforms and databases in Oracle Cloud.

We use the software to run some cloud applications that would not make sense for us to run on Prime. They allow us to use different forms of storage, computing, and architecture.
  • Free tier.
  • Architecture
  • Training
  • Price
  • Uptime
  • Interface
It is well-suited if you can stay within the free tier limits of the platform. If you want to do things with Oracle-based databases, it makes a lot of sense to use it directly from the manufacturer. I do not see the software being as robust or intuitive as Azure or AWS.

I've used it in various capacities. The most commonly used service/module was for virtual machines in the classic 'application/web server' configuration. I've also used storage for backups and for moving various files on/off Oracle Cloud. Most recently, I used OCI for DNS service because we were using Dyn, which was acquired by Oracle.
  • Classic infrastructure ran well.
  • Common modules are easily accessible.
  • It wasn't overpriced compared to competitors.
  • Navigating the UI takes lots of getting used to. It reminds me of older GCP (just to get used to where everything is).
  • Permission for different things always seemed to be more difficult than it really needed to be. Once you got them set up you were good but updating anything or creating new permissions for just about anything took longer than I thought it should.
  • Based on how the buttons were laid out, it was pretty easy to delete all of your DNS records, and backing them up was not as intuitive as I'd like with the UI, but it was easy to do using a script.
If you are anti-AWS (or even Azure), then OCI is probably a good choice. It wasn't crazy pricing, and it offers a lot of the 'basic' features for a cloud provider with computing, storage, networking, DNS, database, etc. If you want bleeding edge server-less, then you probably want to use a different cloud provider, but OCI is not a bad provider, it's just not top dog.

I am a certified support for Oracle Database products; Oracle Cloud infrastructure is an exact and good solution in order to run Oracle Database products. Actually, I use Oracle Cloud infrastructure in training needs because I need to prepare workshops using this environment, too. We have several customers with Oracle Cloud infrastructure as a primary environment.
  • Workshop environments for personal training.
  • Customer infrastructure for Oracle database systems.
  • Fusion middleware environments.
  • DRP Environments for on-premise.
  • Networking configurations.
  • Oracle RAC DB systems deployment wizard.
  • Oracle OCI cloud SHELL.
  • Delivery message for free tier.
DBsystem environments for Internet applications could be perfect to be running on Oracle Cloud infrastructure. With their Disaster recovery over another region in order to avoid outgage if the principal region is out of service. With additions of Multi-Cloud in association with Azure, it could be perfectly working, use of fast connect and express route links between both cloud providers.

We use it for a bunch of cases, but mostly for web development, we deploy applications, front-ends, databases, and low-code and no-code applications. Also, Oracle Cloud has apex, which is a no-code application, very good for some cases.
  • Computer instance with arm processors and a lot of distro linux.
  • Very good price.
  • SLA, which others companies don't offer.
  • I think OCI can improve their courses area, with more beautiful presentations and straight-to-end goals. I think it's a good idea to hire some influencers to develop some applications in OCI, it will be a very good idea in understanding the basics.
Cloud development, infrastructure, web development, and AI, in all cases OCI is the best choice for good and great companies, who want to stand out from competitors and have a very good cloud solution, with SLA, and good prices. No comparison.

We tried to use Oracle Cloud as a backup cloud for our Software as a Service platform that's based on Amazon Web Services. It would allow us to deploy certain components of our main infrastructure in a second cloud for high availability purposes. We tried Compute, Functions, and Object Storage.
  • High availability.
  • Competitive price offering.
  • Good Salesforce and support.
  • We did not like the console setup and functions.
  • Event being competitive, prices were higher than AWS.
  • Lack of cloud native functions.
If you are a big company working with Oracle already, Oracle Cloud may be a good option. Especially if you are moving "legacy" workloads that use software such as VMWare or Windows, Oracle Cloud seems to be attractive for this kind of case. It has very good enterprise support.

we use Oracle Cloud Infrastructurefor hosting SAP systems for some of our customers. We faced issues with using Oracle Java. It is good solution when combined with different Oracle products such as Oracle database and Oracle Linux. As it is not a so explored Cloud service, it is normal to come accross some issues compare to other public Cloud Infra service providers
  • optimize for Oracle workloads
  • low price cost
  • get good support for app development
  • more integration features with other cloud services
  • complicated configurations
  • less knowledge posts on OCI to search when facing issues
Best suited with Oracle database with huge loads on Oracle products to be able to optimize Less suited for a layman to come & start using Oracle cloud as it is not among very popular public clouds. The Oracle OCI customer base is very less in the market compared to other public Cloud Infra service providers although Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has collaborations on different scenarios

We used to implement security (Role-based access control and other security tasks) for our clients. The company used to purchase Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as a cloud solution for their legacy migrations. I was a cyber cloud architect for our team. The product was used to address financial systems such as ERP, which Oracle Cloud Infrastructure supported.
  • Strong IAM policies
  • Good Oracle Support
  • Easy to use
  • Location based access control
  • Casb is new and weak
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has strong security hardening policies. However, they lack a few actions that clients require. They do not provide very strong customizations. It may also lack a few services, such as cloud guard, although a good product but not a very good product since it lacks few services.

We use oracle constantly for our expense tracking needs. We have set up a process to expedite the approval and coding process. This has helped us save time organizing receipts and expenses to validate amounts.
  • Speedy loading.
  • Helpful hints.
  • Easy storage.
  • Autonomous guiding is more user-friendly. The setup is kind of complicated but the use afterward could be cleaned up.
  • Custom application database usage could be more accessible.
  • Security for applications to improve or update frequently. Lots of breaches and changes lately with data protection.
We have used oracle cloud-based solutions for 8 years and it has been very good. We had a cyber-attack recently and our files were protected. We are lucky to have security but we need to switch more applications to oracle. We are hoping as we integrate more fictions that they all work together seamlessly.

The Finances department uses the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for accounting and managing the expenses of the organization. It is a non-profit organization that makes the most of the platform for creating sandboxes to automate processes for monitoring and running reports. The platform is essential for small to mid-size organizations, with many user-friendly features. The business team is satisfied with Oracle Cloud infrastructure, which gives them better visibility of their products on hand.
  • Centralized financial reporting
  • Procurement and Fulfillment
  • Inventory Management
  • Service Support - takes forever to create a support ticket
  • Documentation - needs to be topic-focus structured
  • Provide Feedback link - window revamps instructions and makes input details more visible.
Mostly suited for Procurement, Accounting and/or Finances and inventory, maintenance to centralize and automate the day-to-day operations reporting and monitoring. Secured platform availability and user-friendly. Clients have easy access to advance report tools and dashboards are very good and promote decision-making processes with planning and analysis features.

We help clients set up Oracle services in OCI, including database servers, GoldenGate MA configuration, deployments, etc. One of the problems I have with OCI is the lack of a data center on the west coast (I'm in Canada). Toronto is the only choice, which makes some of our clients on the west coast suffer. We have one client out there who planned to use OGG on OCI to replicate transactions, but due to the network constraints, they ended up using in-house OGG instead.
  • Scaling up and down with ease
  • Seamless integration with Oracle products like RDBMS, OGG, etc.
  • Cost for storage
  • Support - Having to continue asking for escalation in SRs is never a good practice
  • VCN
  • DC on the west coast
  • The OCI interface is confusing and non-intuitive
OCI is designed for existing Oracle clients who are willing to migrate to the cloud, as well as those who are more concerned about the cost. Based on my personal experiences, big organizations are less likely to migrate to the cloud. Even if they do, they tend to use ExaCC, giving them some sort of "cloud experience".

We run test/dev environments in our Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Tenancy. We test implementations of various Oracle stacks like - Oracle Databases, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Weblogic Suits, etc. We perform version upgrades, run migration scenarios, and take notes of the issues we face. This gives us advantages when we perform the same for our customers so we already know what to expect and how to mitigate these issues.
  • Cross-Region backup of Boot & Block volumes
  • Cross-Region replication of boot & block volumes to the paired region
  • Resource Manager - Managed Terraform
  • File Storage - There should be native cross-region replication support
  • Block Volume & Boot Volume cross-region backup - it's very confusing to know the actual source volume from the backup using only the source. Either source tags of volume names should be attached to the cross-region backup
  • There should be a native DR management tool, which can help to configure types of DR - Pilot Light, Warm Standby, Active-Active
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure should provide more Linux Images like - RHEL, SUSE, Debian, Alma Linux/Rocky Linux. With native billing for RHEL & SUSE
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is best suited to run all kinds of Oracle Software Stacks. It should also offer the following services natively - Content Delivery Network, DR Configuration & Management, Native migration tools to bring workloads from on-prem or from any other public cloud platform.

Many of the customers have already moved their DC to [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure], also a few of them uses [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure] as their DR solution.
  • love the oci console , its very simple to use than before.
  • oci rewards system is pretty interesting.
  • oci security much better than other OEM's.
  • Though the navigation has been simplified a lot I believe it can be simplified more just like AWS.
  • cost details analysis gets delayed sometimes. This needs to settle.
  • More insights on offerings of different services provided in OCI
Datacenter and Disaster recovery solution where dc is on-premise and DR resides in [Oracle Cloud Infrastucture]. A perfect example [that] provides scalability, CAPEX model for DR infra. There was a time when Cloud computing used to mean convenient, but slow. But With [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure], all that has changed. Oracle’s next-generation solution offers bare-metal servers that reliably provide extreme performance that fully supports real-time processing, massive datasets, and high input/output operations per second (IOPS).

Use oracle cloud infrastructure to host our in-house product application business customer-facing software as a service application. The application uses computer instances that are hosted in the network and use the storage, which consists of the DataBase, logging, and bucket. Cloud infrastructure reliability and speed into the next level, even though there are multiple cloud providers or I can help us to integrator requirements with the help of their team be very able to migrate from an on-premise solution to Cloud within days without affecting their business. We take security into consideration very much and are very able to integrate the best of security, compliance, data handling guidance, protection of privacy of our customers, logging and all the government relations at all geography to be set up at the best places that are actually provided.
  • Superior Performance
  • Built in security
  • High Availability
  • Powerful Developer tools and Built in APIs
  • Services
  • Integration with Services
  • More Products compared to competitiors
  • Better Pricing
To start with this very difficult to ignore the code provided and suggest Microsoft and Google and Amazon. Due to the number of developer documents classrooms and training that already provides since it's a newbie in the market. It's always good to go with the one that has better support since they're trying to be the market. Even do the competitions are not too bad, oracle is a technology for the past decades.

We are using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for running the dev, staging, and production environment of multiple services. We use VM, Kubernetes service, and database services for running the majority of the application. The benefits we have seen are highly available, scalable, and robust infrastructure at a low cost as compared to other providers in the market. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides direct support of Terraform which helps our infra team to create and scale infrastructure quickly.
  • Database services are best in class
  • Services are highly available and scalable
  • Datacentres are available in almost all the regions
  • It's good for running the microservices application in Kubernetes
  • Limited OS images for Virtual Machines
  • Depends on third party services for CI-CD automation
  • User Interface is very out-dated
  • Currently, the community is very small so some troubleshooting takes more time
I would recommend Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for running the application that requires minimum cloud-based services. The services are highly available and scalable at minimum cost. Oracle has high-quality services but I feel they are still growing in the market and not all the services are available in their services catalog which is required for running the large application.

We are using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for the deployment of applications and migration of existing applications and databases to Oracle Cloud. Oracle Cloud has helped in saving infrastructure costs to much extend.
  • Migration of Applications and Database to Oracle Cloud
  • Deploying container based applications via Docker and Kubernetes
  • Using Oracle Database Transfer service to migrate data from on premise to cloud
  • Oracle Storage Service to store data as Standard and Archived Objects
  • Migration support for Legacy Applications
  • Database is fully not under DBA control
  • Lower price for small scale companies
OCI is good for Oracle Database migration and other Oracle Applications. Database migration to OCI is seamless with Oracle Zero Downtime migration utility. We had one such migration with Zero Downtime utility and it went smooth. OCI is also good for Object Storage and we can even deploy Static Applications in Standard Object Storage. Networking between On-premise and Cloud also works excellent with good security.
