When migrating to Oracle Exadata, removing the development system from the cloud environment is essential. Next, upgrading and updating the queries within the application is necessary to harness the benefits offered by the accredited storage and security features. This optimization enabled Accredited to achieve enhanced performance. Generally, Accredited Data operates differently from on-premises databases. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Overall, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. However, there are a few things to note. It's not just about being alert with Exadata, but also understanding the OCI console. For instance, companies need to create user group policies to protect against unauthorized access. If you are referencing a compromised system, there's no issue there, because the operating system is Linux. There's no problem when it comes to the basic operations of the database, such as creating, querying, and updating tables. However, we've adopted a new configuration where we're using Docker containers to deploy our applications. This is a new setup for us.

I'm an Oracle partner. My advice to others looking into implementing Oracle Exadata Cloud at Customer, especially if they're partners, is that they need to be hands-on. For example, they need some hands-on practice first. They need more accessibility to the lab environment because it's a very specialized environment. They need a demo website or demo link to do hands-on practice, especially because Oracle Exadata Cloud at Customer is an evolving product. I'm rating Oracle Exadata Cloud at Customer eight out of ten because it's not a perfect product, and it's still evolving.

The initial setup of the machine is done by Oracle, but it takes some time so plan your migration project accordingly. A proper sizing may be one of my advices for the customers. A good and detailed project plan for the migration is also important. Customers who don't have any Exadata field engineers or Exadata admins in their staff may choose this machine. This machine gives you an Exadata without requiring lots of Exadata-specific expertise. Customers who want to run their databases on the cloud, but can not migrate because of regulations, can use this machine. This machine provides a cloud infra in your own data center.
