Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is being used to support our Oracle Production and Test environments. It's being used across our whole organization. The main business problem addressed is the affordability, scalability, and reliability of our Oracle environment. The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure products allow us to easily push out patches, assist our users, and scale up when needed - all at a great price!

Pros and Cons

Reliability - we have not had any issues with downtime since we migrated.
Scalability - the OCI environment provides options for additional modules and upgrades.
Affordability - the features provided would cost so much more in a different environment.

Reliance on Java in our current environment, though that's more to do with our older database.

Return on Investment

Positive - Reduced downtime for our users
Negative - Upfront costs to migrate
Positive - Ability to add modules/features/updates easily

Likelihood to Recommend

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is a fantastic product for most Oracle environments. As far as I know, it supports almost all of the Oracle environments. The only scenarios I could think of where it would be less appropriate to use this product would be if you have an Oracle environment that is outdated by quite a few versions, or if you couldn't afford migrating to OCI.

OCI - A must have for great reliability, scalability, and affordability!
