01 · What it is

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, made clear.

OCI is the cloud Oracle built for enterprise workloads: bare metal and VMs, a flat low-latency network, Exadata and Autonomous as-a-service, prices (especially egress and licenses) often more aggressive than the hyperscalers. For those with an Oracle estate, BYOL and support matter as much as the technology.

The real business case

OCI wins on Oracle workloads: we run the comparison with AWS/Azure on YOUR estate, not on price lists.

OCI landing zone

Compartments, policies and network designed beforehand: governance from day one.

Database migration

ZDM, Data Guard and GoldenGate: moving the data without stopping those who use it.

The rest of the estate

OKE, compute and storage for what surrounds the database: the complete architecture.

03 · In depth

Regions, compartments and the OCI model

OCI is organized by regions and availability domains, with compartments as logical boundaries of resources, policies and budgets; IAM policies are readable sentences ('Allow group X to manage Y in compartment Z'), flexible shapes tune OCPUs and RAM independently, the VCN network offers security lists and NSGs with FastConnect up to 100G. Prices are the same in every region — egress is a fraction of the hyperscalers' — and Universal Credits simplify the commitment.

  • Compartment — internal multi-tenancy: isolated projects with their own budgets and policies
  • Policy leggibili — IAM in near-English: the audit understands without a translator
  • Flexible shape — OCPUs and RAM decoupled: the exact size, not the nearest
  • Egress economico — outbound traffic at costs that make you forget lock-in
  • FastConnect — the dedicated circuit up to 100G, also via local partners
  • Prezzi uniformi — the same price list in every region: multi-region without surprises

OCI pays off if designed well: landing zone, compartments and connectivity set up by us — in order from day one.
05 · Use cases

Where it really pays off.

Oracle-centric workloads

EBS, Siebel, custom on Oracle DB: the natural home.

DR in cloud

Data Guard to OCI: the B site on consumption.

Mixed environments

The database in OCI, the rest where it pays: pragmatic multicloud.

The right cloud depends on the workload: for the Oracle-centric, OCI must be evaluated — we bring the numbers.
