Recently Uber had a tie up with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Do you think OCI can beat GCP and will compete with Azure and AWS in the next 2 years? https://www.computerweekly.com/news/365531102/Uber-signs-seven-year-cloud-deal-with-Oracle
No.
OCI is a solid cloud tbh, use it for my hobby projects bc it gets the job done, has a generous free tier, and it's cheaper than the others. 10tb free egress per month forever if memory serves My only complaint is that the only databases they let you use for now are mysql and oracle. They won't let you use managed mysql for free like any other cloud and only let you use managed Oracle DB for free. If you want mysql or postgres on free tier you need to do it in a compute instance. Cheapest place for managed mysql though definitely... Which Uber uses. Also no managed postgres that's native to oci (yet?). So if you want that you need to go with ScaleGrid.
OCI can be cheap and lower quality.
OCI platform services are pretty good and free tier service is awesome
This really depends on where the cloud market is going tbh, but if MSFT could eat AWSs lunch so easily then it’s not far fetched to believe OCI can stunt GCP growth atleast in select market fronts.
What makes you think Azure is eating AWS’ lunch? Azure is def growing in market share and is establishing itself as the clear number 2, but it’s not at the expense of AWS.
OCI has lot of potential to compete with Azure and AWS in next 5 years with its legacy customers since most of their financial clients not yet moved to cloud.
When are you guys getting managed postgres
In two years, probably not, but in five to ten, yes. OCI is innovating. AWS is day 2.

Why Pronouns shit captured US ? I don’t see this anywhere else
Oracle can offer and afford cheap services, reflecting from what they pay their employees.. and after all that they would still do layoffs ..
If they pay low, it will impact their services too.
Time will tell! I feel Azure and AWS are better! And everyone is trying to save cost so if the offer is cheap then it makes sense to go for oracle
