Whats your thought if you are working in Oracle cloud Infrastructure Larry ellision cliamed that it is better than aws in terms of price and feature.
For HPC I would say OCI is competitive with GCP but behind AWS and Azure.
Huh? oracle doesn’t even have enough compute nodes for a legit HPC
Race to zero, ORCL has lots of incentive to provide bottom dollar prices for space. As long as they can get to basic feature parity with aws customers don’t really care
Are there any customer of OCI? Also how is the pay compared to AWS/GCP?
Yeah there's some. https://www.oracle.com/customers/infrastructure/cisco-tetration/
Pay is competitive with Amazon but orcl stock has not grown much in comparison
lmao
I am sure they are giving discounted price to attract customers and then increase the price
Ex-AWS here. I like it better than AWS for its open source eco system as my skill set are transferable to other companies. The designs are really done by engineers not managers. At AWS I had managers who dictated and weighed in on design decisions, which leads to ultimate failure or over complication. One last note, there’s a trend of inexperienced PEs at AWS that make over complicated designs that result in products stuck in LA for too long. I think AWS as a leader had its glory but they’re not able to sustain the good work that was put before.
what open source tools do you guys use?
Are you talking about terraform instead of their own tool like cloudformation as an example?
I’d compare Oracle to local hosting providers. Not even comparable to AWS.
I mean we’re def better than Local hosting providers but not even close to amazons scale for cloud. Zoom runs more of its workload on oracle than aws now
Are you certain about zoom? I heard the prod loads are mostly on AWS now
Is this a troll? Are these two providers even comparable?
Don't take it from me, take it from my customers. I've never heard of a customer being happy with Oracle. Internally, Oracle never even comes up as competition... just Azure and GCP. I'm more likely to hear about a Heroku migration than an Oracle migration. And, no, I don't think that's because customers don't want to leave Oracle... I think its because they're not using Oracle.
Joined recently and so far I’m really liking OCI. People are really smart and lots of ex-AWS and MSFT people to learn from. Think overall OCI is gaining traction
How is the interview process?
