In any case great win for OCI. Shows they can compete with the big boys in the Cloud space. #aws #azure
Maybe they are considering which one is cheapest
Who does Google support? I feel like they needed this one to step up with Amazon/MS...
I think Snap is all on Google Cloud
Don’t think so, also aws. They had a cool tech conference presentation of migrating to dynamo db
Oracle Cloud is an easy financial decision if you’re already an on-prem Oracle shop. Even if you’re not in my experience it’s about 50% cheaper vs AWS apples to apples virtualization. Comes with its own cost though, the support is hot hot mess right now.
Oracle doesn’t have a product in this space while all the others have something going on with varying degrees of success. May be that influenced Zoom apart from the cost obviously.
👆 MSFT and G can't really be trusted to not kneecap Zoom with "regrettable" outages, slowness, etc.
Zoom can't go with Amazon because they have Chime, they can't go with MS because of Teams, they can't go with Google as they have Hangout, Meet etc. Guess who is left?
Probably not the reason
100% is the reason. I see these issues all the time, with our customers data (not wanting it to be in XYZ cloud)
I think it is a good win-win deal for both zoom and OCI.
The egress charges were deal breaker. Aws, azure sips 💰💰 for eggress charges. Intially i thought zoom was crazy to go with Oracle.
A good session clarifying the lies from OCI leadership ! https://twitter.com/thecube/status/1260695518046490631?s=21
