Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
- Communication
- Data maintain
- Data analysis
- Data processing
- Data management
- Speed of working
October 20, 2023
New kid on the block
- Seamless integration with Oracle Linux.
- Better support for Oracle databases
- Clean dashboard for managing multiple instances of virtual instances
- Granular snapshots recovery
- Point in time data recovery for databases
- Support for legacy operating systems

If you're not using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you should check it out - it's no cost, risk-free, and may surprise you
- 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
- 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.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure works just how you need it and will be worth paying for in the long run.
- transactions
- cloud processes
- cost optimization
- understanding their products

Oracle Cloud should be your first choice for cloud hosting.
- 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.
October 19, 2023
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for Oracle Database Services.
- 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.

OCI vs the other guys.
- 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.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure from Support Side.
- 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.

This is the best experience ever with cloud computing from 4 years of experience working as software developer.
- 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.
- 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.

Great for large companies, reporting could improve.

- 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.

Growing pains, a great cloud platform experience.
- Centralized financial reporting
- Procurement and Fulfillment

Sunshine at Oracle Cloud
- 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
Score 9 out of 10

- 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
- 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
