Hybrid cloud has supported payment services and provides reliable networked virtual machines
There are no restrictions about usage of these virtual machines because Linux machines are used, and everything needed is installed on our own responsibility, as all applications are developed by vendors who produce them for us. This is why there are no restrictions felt in usage of cloud services. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers good services, though the price could be lower than it currently is. AI and machine learning features of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) have not been used in production, as research is being conducted in this area. Services provided to customers are very well tested, and untested services are not offered to customers. Currently, research is being conducted on the usage of AI offerings through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) or other vendors of AI tools.

Has allowed me to build and deploy containerized applications consistently by integrating automated image updates and CI/CD workflows
The features of Red Hat Quay that I have found most valuable include the ability to switch between the previous version and the newer version; this is an extra feature currently added, and I appreciate this feature. Red Hat Quay's automated image building has helped my CI/CD pipeline efficiency by allowing me to store my source code from GitHub and GitLab to my images. It's very convenient, and it automatically stores my images to deploy in the OpenShift application, making it easier to deploy and run the application without any troubleshooting. The positive impacts I have seen from using Red Hat Quay include the ability to change to a newer version and roll back to the older version. This is the only feature I find beneficial, and I can monitor how many people download my images, which I can verify with the analytics provided. The value of geo-replication in maintaining consistent access to container images is significant since I store data in MongoDB and use the Apache Web Server application running in Quay.io, where I store my images.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a cloud-based solution."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Cloud is its autonomous database."
"Our primary use case of this solution is to do implementations on the cloud like Oracle Application, PeopleSoft, and E-Business Suite."
"The flexibility is most valuable, because by having our infrastructure in the cloud we are able to spin up instances as needed and alter the capacity as needed, and everything is working as we expect it."
"I head the sales and marketing team. So, specifically on the feature set side, multi-tenancy is the one that I'm most familiar with. It's also the one that we found to be the most beneficial to us because it allows us to take clients that have multiple sites. For instance, one of our larger clients, which is a bank based out of South Africa, has offices in multiple countries. It allows us to multi-tenant each and create a tenant for each country within multi-tenanted architecture."
"The initial setup of Oracle Cloud is simple...It is a scalable solution."
"The autonomous database functions are an excellent feature."
"Currently, Oracle Cloud is one of the cloud providers that has a better cost and the right commercial conditions here in Brazil."
"Red Hat Quay's automated image building has helped my CI/CD pipeline efficiency by allowing me to store my source code from GitHub and GitLab to my images, making it easier to deploy and run the application without any troubleshooting."
"It's easy to use, and it does what it is meant for."
"Things like downloading an image, pulling an image, tagging, and pushing it back to the needed organization are fairly easy compared to doing things through the command-line interface."
"The best features Red Hat Quay offers for my work are that it is easily integrated with RHEL, so if our environment is RHEL-based and we have already purchased the subscription for RHEL, it is better to use Red Hat Quay because it also improves reliability and integrates easily with all the RHEL-related tools like OpenShift."
"Red Hat Quay's automated image building enhances CI/CD pipeline efficiency because all our applications are deployed through CI/CD pipeline, whether Jenkins or Octopus, and can pull images directly through Red Hat Quay using robot accounts and service accounts."
 

Cons

"The marketplace could be improved very much."
"There should be more management automation."
"Though Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has robust features, improvements could be made to its authentication and identity access management, specifically in making them more seamless without using fingerprints for authentication."
"With Oracle you have to create your own roles and it is more complex."
"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."
"It should have other workloads from other suppliers running on the solution."
"There is room for improvement for stability."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
"Nothing is happening regarding AI. I don’t see the role of AI currently."
"It could be more integrated with other platforms."
"I think Red Hat Quay could improve the security, as users can download the images without a login."
"Red Hat Quay can improve its statistics capabilities. Currently, we don't have means to check the overall utilization, such as the number of repositories, frequency of usage for each repository, and which users are accessing specific repositories."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's cost could be better."
"The solution is free to use."
"Oracle Cloud Platform is a bit costly. You can always bring your own license or subscribe to the SaaS option, but the SaaS option is very costly. I rate the pricing a six out of ten."
"The price for Oracle Cloud may seem expensive, but if you start comparing features and what Oracle offers, you'll realize that the pricing for Oracle Cloud is competitive. If you consider every aspect of Oracle Cloud, you'll see that its price tag is reasonable because it has a good user interface, user experience, and management. Oracle Cloud is a sophisticated infrastructure and the level of management it allows you to enjoy isn't available in other solutions, so I wouldn't worry about needing to invest huge money into it because it's a wonderful product to use."
"The subscription is a pay-as-you-go model, with fees that are dependent on usage."
"The cost may be a bit high for many potential users."
"I compared Oracle Cloud Platform with other competitor providers like Azure, and I don't think Oracle is too expensive."
"The pricing for Oracle Cloud services is reasonable. Additionally, compared to other service providers, Oracle has a substantial presence and established infrastructure in Bangladesh. Considering all these factors together makes Oracle Cloud an ideal choice and a strong contender in the market."
