Oracle Cloud is designed to be: • rapidly deployable to enable customers shorter time to innovation; • intuitive for both casual and experienced users; • easily maintainable to reduce upgrade, integration and testing work; • connectable among differing deployment models to enable interoperability and extensibility to easily move workloads among the Oracle Cloud, multicloud and other IT environments; • cost-effective by lowering upfront customer investments and implementing usage-based resource consumption costs; and • highly performant and secure, standards-based and reliable.
