Ensures students only have access while on campus but is expensive

It was limited because it was only to support a program. There was some benefits because we didn't have the infrastructure physically, so we would have to buy it. We didn't have to make an investment at the beginning. It has pay-as-you-use pricing. It was good for us. In this Business Intelligence and Analytics program, there are about 15 courses. In 10 courses, they use the cloud infrastructure, different software. They have MySQL database with lots of data. They have to do exercises and and analyze the the data. Basically, they had to do a lot of exercises regarding machine learning. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Cost-effectiveness and pricing consistency support diverse high-intensity applications

The services of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) are quite competent when compared to AWS Cloud, and they are also lower in cost. We use compute, storage, and network services. A notable feature is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's consistent global pricing, which is advantageous. Furthermore, applications using Oracle Database not only work seamlessly on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) but also benefit from a 25% offset on Oracle Database licenses.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We use the the IBM cloud to provide the computing solution for the course."

"The product is efficient and can be used for multiple environments."

"OCI's best features are its price, databases, and Linux compatibility."

"When compared with other products, this product is very good because it's easy to move from primary to secondary sites. With other products, you need to build everything from the base. With Oracle Data Cloud, you can move from the primary to the secondary and return back to the primary by a very simple command, and you never lose data."

"I am impressed with the tool's upscaling and resiliency features."

"The product gives you independence from hardware onsite, the setup is easy, and there is no need for hardware maintenance."

"It is a stable solution...Since it is a cloud solution, I can say it is a scalable product."

"Oracle Cloud has wonderful features and offerings as a service. It's not just a pure-play cloud product or SaaS application. It has a complete suite from infrastructure to platform as a service to software as a service, and this is what I find most valuable in Oracle Cloud. For infrastructure on the cloud or infrastructure as a service on the cloud, there's OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure). Oracle Cloud is easily available. You just click it. I also found the feature of creating a landing zone valuable. Oracle Cloud is also very flexible as it lets you have a hybrid cloud model along with other cloud solutions. I also like that it offers good management on the cloud. Oracle Cloud is ready to use as a service, and that's wonderful because the time to market is very quick. I also like that Oracle Cloud offers high performance and high availability. A lot of people claim that there's high availability in their companies' cloud operations, but technically speaking, pure high availability in today's context is found in Oracle Cloud."

"Overall, I would say that Oracle Cloud provides support with zero down time and the high probability is very good."

"The most valuable features of Oracle Cloud are the ease of navigation and stability. The solution is more feature-rich and powerful than these smaller alternatives."

Cons

"Price should be reduced."

"IBM Cloud Container Registry should improve its API management. One improvement factor could be enhancing the integration capabilities of container registries like Harbor with hyperscaler platforms. While some container registries, like Azure Container Registry and IBM Cloud Container Registry, are tightly integrated with their respective hyperscaler environments, others may lack integration options."

"In general, the systems application needs improvement."

"They could add more features."

"The packaging part of the software needs improvement. It lacks customization abilities for users. Giving them VMs for machine learning or running their own programs like Azure and Amazon, for example. Things like scalability based on the requirement of the tools. Oracle still lacks these kinds of things. For example, if you need a VM from Oracle, you need to pay for a monthly fee. They started developing containership but it's still at the initial stage and it's still lacking. They also need to develop integration between packages."

"They could improve their global presence and marketing strategy to compete effectively with the likes of AWS."

"There is room for improvement for stability."

"The solution could always be less expensive."

"The pricing model of Oracle Cloud Platform is an area of concern. Oracle Cloud Platform should be made available at a cheap price."

"The Oracle Cloud platform remains complex, and despite the abundance of resources available, significant challenges can still arise during the migration process from a legacy or on-premise system. Conversely, smaller companies with less complicated systems, such as those with a two million budget, can migrate more easily."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is recommended to enterprises due to its high costs."

"Costing depends on if you have an existing license for the application and for the operating system."

"I compared Oracle Cloud Platform with other competitor providers like Azure, and I don't think Oracle is too expensive."

"The solution is cheaper compared to Oracle E-Business Suite."

"Improvements can be made with respect to flexibility in the licensing model."

"The subscription cost is too high."

"It's less expensive to operate your environment in the cloud than in-house. It's a bundle cost. Everything is included in one price."

"The solution is expensive. I would rate the pricing as ten out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."

"I rate Oracle Cloud three to four out of ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
