Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

We were working on a POC for data mining, and we needed a lot of computation power at a decent cost. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure helped in this regard since it's reasonably priced and very easy to set up and get going. The interface is also quite simple and would not need much training to get started.

Pros

  • Easy management of compute resources
  • Fast startup of compute resources

Cons

  • Bulk operations such as bulk shutdown of compute resources
  • Being reasonably priced, it has helped us to reach our goal at a low cost
AWS has a few advantages, such as bulk operations which seem to be missing from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, but Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is faster to start and deploy.

Do you think Oracle Cloud Infrastructure delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's feature set?

Did Oracle Cloud Infrastructure live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Oracle Cloud Infrastructure again?

Yes

It can be helpful where someone wants easy management of compute resources and also at a reasonable price. The interface is quite simple and does not need much training to get used to. Though not better than its rivals, such as Amazon Web Services, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has its own plus points.
