  • CentOS.
  • Oracle Autonomous Linux.
  • Oracle Linux.
  • Windows.

Server Shapes

  • AMD – Flexible OCPU count.  AMD processors
  • Intel – Current generation Intel processors.

Server Sizes

  • Flexible OCPUs 1 to 64 CPUs
  • Memory 1 to 1024 GB

Reliable and flexible processing power!

Dedicated Cloud Servers (Bare Metal Machines)

A bare metal compute instance gives you dedicated physical server access for highest performance and strong isolation.

Why choose Oracle instead of Amazon Web Services?

Customers choose Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for several reasons:

When it comes to Virtual Cloud Servers, OCI is the best choice

1. Deploys the same public cloud on-premises

Oracle gives customers the choice to consume their cloud services in the public cloud or within their own data center with Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer. Unlike AWS Outposts, Oracle brings its complete portfolio of public cloud services into your data center.

This can reduce costs, upgrade legacy applications with modern services, and help address your most demanding data sovereignty and latency requirements.

On-premises services are covered by the same SLAs as the public cloud with OCI while AWS does not offer any SLAs for AWS Outposts. Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer offers the same exact SLAs for availability (99.95% uptime), manageability (API error rate), and performance (disk IOPS, network).

2. Migrate Oracle workloads with confidence

Customers are increasingly migrating business-critical enterprise applications and databases to the cloud. And they want to execute these migrations without changing familiar software or IT processes. Unlike AWS, Oracle makes migrations easier the best deployment options, highest performance, best availability, and lowest costs for Oracle databases and workloads.

OCI offers the highest scalability for enterprise workloads. Oracle Databases can scale to many times the compute and storage capacity of AWS, up to 1,600 database server cores and up to 2.5 PB database size (without compression) with Oracle Exadata Cloud Service X8M. Whereas Amazon RDS for Oracle is limited to running databases that can only scale to 96 vCPUs (equivalent to 48 OCPUs) and 64 TB in size.

What about Dedicated Cloud Servers (Bare Metal Machines)?

1. Migrate Oracle workloads with confidence

David Norton Consulting Oracle Partner

Clients want to migrate the workloads running on the physical servers and VMware environments without rearchitecting applications, change familiar software or IT processes, or introduce complexity to their operations. Oracle makes this easy; AWS does not.

OCI has Bare metal servers suitable for any enterprise application. The largest bare metal servers in the public cloud are offered—up to 128 cores, 2 TB of RAM, and 1 PB of storage. These servers are accessible with the same portal and tools, and live on the same networks with direct access to other Oracle Cloud resources.

Bare metal compute instances have a unique direct memory interconnect for remote direct memory access (RDMA). RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE v2) is critical to the performance of tightly coupled HPC workloads that depend on message passing (MPI) to exchange data between cluster nodes during large, long-running computations. AWS doesn’t offer an equivalent architecture, and their closest solution, the C5n, costs 44% more.

Ability to create and manage rules for internet threats!

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Web Application Firewall (WAF)

WAF is a cloud-based, Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant, global security service that protects applications from malicious and unwanted internet traffic. WAF can protect any internet facing endpoint, providing consistent rule enforcement across a customer’s applications.

WAF provides you protection tools against Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), SQL Injection and other OWASP-defined vulnerabilities. Unwanted bots can be mitigated while tactically allowed desirable bots to enter. Access rules can limit based on geography or the signature of the request.

The global Security Operations Center (SOC) will continually monitor the internet threat landscape acting as an extension of your IT infrastructure.

Setup fee: $49

Web Application Firewall Policy

WAF policies encompass the overall configuration of your WAF service, including origin management, protection rule settings and bot detection features.

Origin

An origin must be defined in your WAF policy in order to set up protection rules or other features.

Protection Rules

Configure to either allow, block, or log network requests when they meet the specified criteria of a protection rule. The WAF will observe traffic to your web application over time and suggest new rules to apply.

Bot Management

Detect and either block or allow identified bot traffic to your web applications. Bot management features include: JavaScript Challenge, CAPTCHA Challenge, and GoodBot whitelists.

Pricing: base Price $29.  Scalable base on traffic measures.
