Use Cases and Deployment Scope
It is used to put the Oracle HTTP Server for our POS. It's used only by the IT department and specifically by the channels section. The problems we have include the permissions on OHS configuration files using OPC users. Also, Oracle needs to make a GUI for administrating instead of always using the commands. Sometimes we have unknown issues sent to support and are solved by only restarting the server.
Pros
  • When we have issues with OTD which is not serving our needs, it offered a solution to put OHS instead of OTD.
Cons
  • I would like to see an administration GUI instead of the command line.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited to be used for OHS.

Powerfull, easy to configure, and you can get it for Free

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I'm using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to create POC (proof of concept) for different solutions and services in the projects I'm currently involved. I usually employ the Free Tier offer to create one or two Oracle Database instances, and also volume storage and compute instances to install and configure the components I need to test / demonstrate.
Pros
  • The Free Tier offer allows to test basic configurations for Free
  • Easy to configure and deploy. Takes less than 10 minutes to create an Oracle Database instance
  • Really wide range of services available
Cons
  • More integration with other cloud solutions (besides Azure) would be great
Likelihood to Recommend
Deploying Oracle [Cloud Infrastructure] databases are really straightforward, either choosing the Autonomous options (Autonomous Transaction Processing, Autonomous Data Warehouse or Autonomous JSON), virtualized servers or even Bare Metal. The Free Tier option allows to configure up to 2 Autonomous database instances.

Besides databases (that is Oracle strong point) there are plenty of compute and serverless options that allow easy deployment of any kind of applications into OCI

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure great to use as an alternative or next to others

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
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.
Pros
  • Easy to setup
  • Easy to add new instances
  • Easy to maintain
Cons
  • It would be nice to be able to have more control about what is needed for a specific instance
  • Price is always important
Likelihood to Recommend
I really like using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure compute instances next to other instances with other providers to have some redundancy and have not all my eggs in one basket. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure does most of what I need. It works well and is easy to setup and maintain. I can definitely recommend it.

If you have to use Oracle, OCI is a good way to do it

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We currently use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) as the back end of our non-production/Dev/QA environment. We run an Oracle Enterprise Instance with 100 PDBs. This configuration allows us to the most cost-efficient way to run a large number of Oracle DB non-production DBs and comply with Oracle licensing terms.
Pros
  • Oracle DB
  • License Compliance
  • Oracle Enterprise Edition
Cons
  • Stability - We'd have multiple outages
  • Cost - It's the most cost-efficient solution by far, but it's still multiple times the cost of a similar solution from Microsoft Azure
  • Ease of Use - Nothing is ever easy; it's always more complicated and complex than it has to be
Likelihood to Recommend
If you have to run Oracle and you can't use RDS from AWS, it's a good solution. It allows an easy way to ensure you're complying with Oracle's ever-changing licensing terms at a reasonable cost. We are only comfortable running non-production workloads there, but for those, it's provided us with good service.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for our project, including Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse. It's always easier when you are using existing, on-premises Oracle applications to migrate into Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for higher performance and lower costs. This addressed reduced cost, high performance, high availability, security, auto patching, backups, and easy pathway to upgrade applications.
Pros
  • Easy and cost effective for customers to migrate on-premises Oracle applications to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure reduced overhead and operational costs, investments in hardware, and associated maintenance
  • Run large workloads at scale without a jump in pricing
  • Ability to scale to provide as much (or as little) compute power and storage as you require
Cons
  • Existing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure components are not enough to implement all cloud solutions
  • UI navigation needs improvement
  • The user interface has glitches and needs tags to be added to create services
  • Integration with other tools or cloud solutions is not straightforward or not available
  • Load balancing capability has limited functionality
Likelihood to Recommend
If you have existing on-premises Oracle applications, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure would be an ideal solution to address reducing costs, increasing performance, improving availability, heightening security, adding auto patching, creating backups and providing your business an easy way to upgrade applications. Importantly, it helps eliminate some of the administrative costs.

If you have a combination of Oracle and other applications with heavy or low usage, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure might not help you or involve lots of initial gaps until Oracle Cloud Infrastructure comes up with many more upgrades or features to connect.
