Hosting Oracle Linux infrastructure on cloud for lower cost of ownership in comparison to VMWare hosted on-Prem infrastructure
Pros
Seamless integration with Oracle Linux.
Better support for Oracle databases
Clean dashboard for managing multiple instances of virtual instances
Cons
Granular snapshots recovery
Point in time data recovery for databases
Support for legacy operating systems
Likelihood to Recommend
Ideal for Oracle Linux and database infrastructure using Oracle Data Guard or Goldengate configurations. In my opinion, the support in contrast is not at par with Oracle database support and lacks ownership and support quality

We run test/dev environments in our Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Tenancy. We test implementations of various Oracle stacks like - Oracle Databases, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Weblogic Suits, etc. We perform version upgrades, run migration scenarios, and take notes of the issues we face. This gives us advantages when we perform the same for our customers so we already know what to expect and how to mitigate these issues.
Pros
Cross-Region backup of Boot & Block volumes
Cross-Region replication of boot & block volumes to the paired region
Resource Manager - Managed Terraform
Cons
File Storage - There should be native cross-region replication support
Block Volume & Boot Volume cross-region backup - it's very confusing to know the actual source volume from the backup using only the source. Either source tags of volume names should be attached to the cross-region backup
There should be a native DR management tool, which can help to configure types of DR - Pilot Light, Warm Standby, Active-Active
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure should provide more Linux Images like - RHEL, SUSE, Debian, Alma Linux/Rocky Linux. With native billing for RHEL & SUSE
Likelihood to Recommend
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is best suited to run all kinds of Oracle Software Stacks. It should also offer the following services natively - Content Delivery Network, DR Configuration & Management, Native migration tools to bring workloads from on-prem or from any other public cloud platform.

This system, in general, was implemented for the company to maintain order with the amount of data and information. As a food company, we have too much information regarding sales & customers. We have had favorable results using their service since we can keep our data safe. It is extremely spectacular to maintain a single structure where we can enter and search for the information we need or simply save that data safely and securely. It is a system that is implemented all over the web.
Pros
Optimal structure and Really useful tool.
A service that details each tool and its proper use.
It is a service that can be installed quickly and that supports the computer and the oracle cloud service.
Cons
It can be expensive.
Oracle or third party help is needed to install.
Likelihood to Recommend
The Oracle service is a cloud service, so if I would recommend it in a general way to those companies or users who wish to use a very detailed system for universities since it allows to keep data or group work protected. It works well to keep your data in an efficient system.
Both block and object storage are very useful to our business and our business needs. Oracle storage has several options and can support a number of our use cases. It is important for us to have some storage which supports NFS file systems and others that are not structured. We mostly use the basic tiers attached to our VMs but sometimes use higher performance options.
Pros
It is highly durable so data is not lost
The variety of tiers can fit many use cases
Snapshot backups are easily created
Cons
Could use more customizability for each storage service
Can always improve the UI to maintain the services
A more economical price point
Likelihood to Recommend
We often use object storage for our needs. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure storage is well suited for our object storage needs because it is highly durable and easy to use using APIs from VMs we have up. Its block storage are also very good for disks attached to our VMs. We mostly use it for temporary storage of workloads.
