Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
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.
- We were able to test our software in another cloud so it was a positive technical return.
- Cost was low so we did not spend a lot of money.
- It was easy to start so we turned up finishing our trial early.
I believe Oracle Cloud is still behind AWS and Google in terms of offering and innovation. Huawei Cloud seems like a direct competitor in the "legacy workload to cloud migrations" segment of the industry, pricing strategy, and enterprise-like sales tactics. We went with Oracle Cloud because of sales proposals and willingness to try another option for the backup cloud.
