Cloud migration is no longer optional. Systems need to scale, data needs to move faster, and businesses need a secure foundation that supports modern workloads. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has become one of the preferred platforms for enterprises because it combines predictable performance, strong security, and deep integration with Oracle applications.
This blog explains why OCI is gaining popularity, how enterprises are using it, and how Faramond supports organizations through cloud adoption and modernization.
What Is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure?
OCI is Oracle’s next-generation cloud platform designed for high performance, security, and scalability. It supports workloads like ERP, databases, analytics, AI, networking, API gateways, Kubernetes, and custom applications.
Unlike traditional cloud platforms, OCI offers:
- Bare metal compute
- High-performance storage
- Autonomous databases
- Integrated security
- Extreme availability
- Low-latency networking across regions
OCI is engineered for enterprise-grade workloads where uptime, performance, and compliance matter.
Why Enterprises Are Moving to OCI
Performance Built for Oracle Workloads
OCI is optimized for Oracle Fusion, E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, and custom applications that rely on Oracle databases.
Cost Efficiency
OCI offers predictable pricing, aggressive cost models, and lower outbound data charges.
Strong Security
Native IAM, encryption, network isolation, vaults, and security zones protect enterprise data.
Multi-Region DR
OCI allows active-active and DR architectures between regions like Mumbai–Hyderabad or Dubai–Abu Dhabi.
Hybrid Cloud Flexibility
Connect on-prem systems to cloud using VPN, FastConnect, or Zero Trust frameworks.
Self-tuning, self-healing, and self-patching databases dramatically reduce operational overhead.
