Labhesh Hase - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Experience with image management has improved application deployments
The best features in Red Hat Quay include the user interface and the RBAC facility, which allows us to control image access for specific teams. We have geo-replication in place, where storage can be replicated across regions, providing redundancy to prevent single points of failure. It is configured to ensure constant availability. 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. This makes it effective from that perspective. Role-based access control is a major feature we have been using because we have hundreds of applications deployed in our container platform, owned by various application owners. Role-based access helps us restrict access to unwanted users within the organization. We maintain separate organizations with different types of access for users, including admin access, view access, and read access for every image. The geo-replication happens at the backend, while the front-end RBAC is managed through a single dashboard. The continuous dynamic sync runs in the background, though monitoring capabilities are limited to the storage team's purview.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that the program is flexible. I can use it to write Java scripts. I also like the website, because it constantly updates me on things, like artificial intelligence, and the latest technology. I read the articles, on the latest technology that programmers can use."
"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."
"I haven't experienced any instability or downtime in Oracle Cloud over the past three years. It is scalable The support team was good. The initial setup is straightforward to configure. I rate the solution a nine out of ten with ten being the highest."
"There is ROI with the product's use."
"Oracle is valuable for improving performance and addressing issues between the nodes of clusters for private IPs. It provides a private connection between the client and the security cluster."
"It's a cloud, so it is easy to access anywhere."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Cloud is the digital assistant."
"It is a stable solution since it offers a very powerful performance to its users."
"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."
 

Cons

"What I'd like to see from Oracle Cloud is an option for the customer to have a single portal to manage and monitor not just Oracle Cloud, but some of the on-premise products in the hybrid scenario as well. If it can be shipped out as an out-of-the-box solution, that would be wonderful. It's not so easy, but for a company like Oracle, it shouldn't be a problem. Many customers go through a lot of effort and burn money to achieve this, so it's an opportunity for Oracle to provide it for customers looking for this type of solution."
"The main issue for the clients is that they need to understand the credit payments because if it's a currency that's not dollars or euros, Oracle will always convert it into credits and that's not easy for the customer to understand at the beginning."
"The product features related to the manufacturing domain must be improved."
"The price of the subscription is too high and excludes some potential customers."
"However, currently, some of its products are not as feature user-friendly as those of AWS."
"Oracle Cloud's support could be improved because its second-line support has weak engineers who handle stuff a little bit slowly."
"Managed services for Postgres are not available in Oracle Cloud."
"The pricing is a bit expensive."
"It could be more integrated with other platforms."
"Nothing is happening regarding AI. I don’t see the role of AI currently."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In Oracle Cloud Platform, one needs to make payments towards the subscription charges."
"The best aspect of the Oracle Cloud Platform is the relation between the performance and the price. When you compare the price with Amazon AWS, Microsft Azure, or any other, the price for performance is the best."
"It's very expensive compared to AWS."
"The solution is free to use."
"The price is middling; it's not the most expensive product, but there is still some room for it to be more flexible."
"The license is a bit expensive for academic work."
"The solution is expensive."
"Oracle Cloud Platform's pricing is comparable to other solutions, but it is definitely not cheap."
