Oracle Cloud (OCI) is one of the newer cloud service providers, but what is Oracle Cloud, when should you consider using Oracle Cloud, and should you learn Oracle Cloud? We’ll talk about what Oracle Cloud is, how OCI fits in with the other cloud players, and why you should care about it. We’ll explain how its infrastructure can help support OLTP applications and data transfer intensive workloads, and look at how you can take your learning further with Oracle Cloud.

If you find yourself unfamiliar with the concepts of bare metal servers, hypervisors, and the like, you probably will find that Oracle Cloud is a weaker fit than some of the big three cloud providers as Oracle, in general, requires more cloud knowledge.

Oracle is absolutely growing in leaps and bounds in their offerings, and — based on their partnership with Microsoft and its almost doubling of cloud regions in 2020 — this is a trend that’s expected to continue.
