Introduction
Today’s business challenges are more complex and demanding than ever
before. However, technological advancements have risen to meet these
obstacles and come up with new ways to solve them. Cloud services have
quickly become the new normal. These days, businesses aren’t asking
themselves why they should use the cloud; rather, they are asking when,
how, and which one to utilize. Globally, businesses are beginning to
comprehend the benefits of migrating to the cloud. As technology continues
to advance at an accelerating pace, it may no longer be feasible to operate
with disconnected business applications and continuously update
customized on-premises infrastructure.
For businesses to stay ahead of the curve and be ready for what lies ahead
in the future, they need to modernize their operations by using enterprise
software that is completely integrated and hosted in the cloud. With so many
cloud infrastructure options available in today’s saturated market, Oracle
Cloud Infrastructure stands out from the rest. It enables enterprises to
migrate their workloads and processes without losing or altering the
elements that have been working properly.
In this blog, we’ll go through some of the most compelling reasons why you
should choose Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Before that, let us first examine
what the Oracle cloud is all about.
What is Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure?
The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is the first public cloud computing platform
provided by Oracle Corporation that offers servers, applications, networking,

2. storage, and services via a global network of managed data centers. Using
Oracle Cloud, developers are able to create, integrate, deploy, and migrate
applications to the cloud by using different cloud computing models such as
Software as a Service (SaaS), Data as a Service (DaaS), Platform as a
Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
The Oracle Cloud supports a wide array of open standards, open-source
solutions, programming languages, databases, tools, and frameworks. It
provides tools and architecture that facilitate a seamless transition from on-
premise to the cloud by leveraging enhanced automation and built-in security
to prevent vulnerabilities, thus facilitating superior migration.
Let’s look at the top 10 compelling reasons why Oracle Cloud is a better
choice than any other service out there:
1. Oracle offers second-generation cloud services
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure addresses key concerns associated with cloud
solutions of the first generation, which were not designed to manage
government workloads, large financial systems, or data-intensive
applications. Performance, security, and migration options were an
afterthought in the development of first-generation cloud solutions, which
were based on technology that was a decade old.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides tools and architecture that enable
businesses to transition smoothly from on-premises to the cloud, utilizing
improved automation and built-in security to reduce threats and ultimately
support superior migration and economics. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s
next-generation architecture meets the requirements of today’s modern
enterprises by delivering faster and more reliable performance, improved
pricing and security, and increased compatibility with enterprise workloads.
2. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s global footprint
Oracle serves an ever-expanding global customer base by offering a
comprehensive set of cloud services across 30 commercial and government
cloud regions located in 14 countries across five continents. As of now, OCI
has 23 commercial regions and seven government regions, as well as a
number of dedicated and national security areas. Moreover, Oracle plans to

3. add 14 new cloud regions to continue its rapid expansion as a major cloud
provider in order to support strong customer demand for Oracle Cloud
services around the world.
Oracle’s strategy to meet customers’ demands is to enable them to deploy
Oracle Cloud entirely within their own data centers with Dedicated Region
and Exadata Cloud@Customer. While Roving Edge Infrastructure enables
cloud services to be deployed remotely on the edge.
3. Built-in security
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure employs a zero-trust architecture by default.
Oracle’s infrastructure isolates compute and network resources to safeguard
and prevent unauthorized access to your personal information and traffic. It
isolates your code, data, and other resources from those of other machines
and networks. This helps prevent attackers from manipulating or stealing
cloud-based data.
Due to Oracle Cloud’s granular customer isolation, the attack surface is kept
to a minimum. With a robust compliance team that regularly audits new
regions and services as well as a round-the-clock Security Operations
Center, Oracle Cloud uses a strict code security development and
deployment approach to protect against attacks. Proactive detection and
mitigation of threats are possible – thanks to multiple layers of defense such
as in-built firewalls, DoS, and encryption. In cases where user activity
indicates a higher vulnerability risk, users can quickly add additional
verification using adaptive authentication.
To address worries about the security of data for its American users, TikTok
says it has reached a milestone and all U.S. user data will now be routed
through Oracle’s cloud infrastructure.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure adheres to over 80 global, regional, and industry
standards, including PCI-DSS, HIPAA, ISO, FedRAMP, IL-5, SOC, and
GDPR. The combination of secure architecture, development, technology,

4. and processes creates an environment that is more secure than the majority
of on-premises facilities and other cloud providers’ offerings.
4. Compartment Feature
Compartment is a powerful security isolation and access control feature of
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). They achieve this by providing a global
logical namespace in which policies can be enforced, similar to file system
folders. They extend to all OCI regions within a given tenancy by being
global. By enforcing policies, they provide the appropriate level of access
based on the parameters defined by the organization for resource
management and delegated administration.
5. Superior performance
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides a uniform and standardized pricing
structure across all regions to facilitate easy and quick adoption. Oracle’s
core cloud capabilities, such as security and container management, were
designed to be incorporated into the cost of compute and not as an additional
charge. In order to make the migration process as simple as possible, Oracle
offers the Cloud Lift program that includes designing, planning, and migration
of your workloads to the cloud at no additional cost.
6. Optimal Pricing
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers the most optimal balance of price and
performance currently offered by any product on the market. Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure is designed specifically for software programs and applications
that demand a constant high level of performance to carry out operations
such as raw processing carried out by CPUs or GPUs, stateful connections
to databases, millions of storage IOPS (input/output operations per second),
and GB/s of throughput. Non-blocking networks ensure that each resource
receives a consistent high level of performance despite having a low level of
latency. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure makes use of the most up-to-date
computing, graphics processing unit (GPU), networking, and storage

5. technologies, such as NVMe (nonvolatile memory express) solid-state drives
(SSD).
7. Easier to migrate critical enterprise workloads
The architecture of most hyperscale cloud providers was built on a virtual
machine model with shared networks and server architectures, making it
difficult to move many applications to the cloud. This older architecture for
cloud computing makes it difficult for enterprise applications to operate at the
expected levels of performance and availability without significant
modification, which increases complexity and risk. OCI is designed with
resources such as off-box virtualization, non-blocking networks, custom
security chips, L2 network virtualization, flex infrastructure, and RDMA
cluster networking to assist businesses with their enterprise application
requirements.
8. Oracle Cloud supports SMB growth
Oracle Cloud is intended for all businesses, including SMBs. This is due to
the fact that as SMBs expand, application adoption rates typically increase
dramatically. However, they can still face the same obstacles as larger
businesses. Oracle Cloud facilitates the anticipated expansion of SMBs by
providing both traditional and cutting-edge tools for developers and mission-
critical workloads.
9. Simple, yet powerful APIs and developer tools
The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure APIs are REST APIs that employ HTTPS
requests and responses. This API, command-line interface, and SDKs in
Java, Python, Typescript, Javascript,.NET, Go, and Ruby let you manage
large workloads and automate everything. Oracle Cloud natively supports
the automation and cloud-init capabilities of Terraform. Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure permits provisioning and management of single-tenant,
dedicated physical hosts and multi-tenant virtual machines using the same
set of APIs. Oracle Cloud enables you to develop and test your app with VMs
and deploy it with dedicated physical hosts, or vice versa. You don’t need to

6. change your app because the single and multi-tenant models share the same
cloud-optimized hardware, software stack, firmware, and networking
infrastructure. All it takes is a couple of clicks (in the GUI console or API
calls).
10. Get comprehensive support for app development
Oracle’s open, standards-based, and fully integrated application
development platform enables you to build, deploy, and manage modern,
API and mobile-first cloud applications on a budget. Oracle also offers
support for cloud-native and container-based low-code development.
Oracle’s AppDev platform provides an all-encompassing DevOps
environment for continuous integration (CI)/ continuous delivery (CD), in-
depth diagnostics for Java applications, and streamlined integration with
SaaS and on-premise software.
Conclusion
As an increasing number of businesses abandon the outdated concept of
on-premise data center hosting in favor of cloud-based solutions, they will
experience significant benefits in their day-to-day operations,
interdepartmental communication, and customer experience. Cloud services
are an excellent way to accelerate growth and scalability, as well as an
indispensable tool for all industries.
To meet the demands of today’s businesses, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
offers a scalable, highly available, and cost-effective cloud platform. Oracle
Cloud Infrastructure’s technologies provide developers and IT professionals
