Oci Platform Overview 10 12
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides a flexible data platform to enable you to build Big Data applications at massive
scale. You can ingest nearly any type of data in a broad range of data formats with native tools for Oracle Database,
the OCI Data Integration service, or the Kafka Connector enabled OCI Streaming. You can create data pipelines to
store and process the data using any combination of OCI Object Storage, OCI Data Flow (Spark), Oracle Big Data
(Hadoop), or Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse. Then you can analyze or train models with the data using Oracle
Analytics Cloud, OCI Data Science, Oracle Machine Learning, or a range of third-party tools. Customers like Cisco
Tetration have seen big data performance improvements of 2-3 times over running the same software on-premises
or in other cloud providers. The reference architecture below shows a data pipeline using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's
Data Flow (Spark), Object Storage, and Autonomous Data Warehouse services.

Web and cloud native applications
Creating scalable and highly-available web apps can be complex and time-consuming. Moreover, it is hard to predict
traffic patterns in advance for web apps, which often results in capacity over provisioning and low utilization of
expensive on-premises hardware and data center resources. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provide a robust, scalable,
highly-available and cost-effective infrastructure platform for hosting your most demanding web applications. OCI
supports a broad range of application infrastructures, including bare-metal, VM, containers, or functions, with many
different runtime and managed data persistence options. The reference architecture below shows a scalable and
highly-available web app running on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

VMware workloads in the cloud or in a hybrid cloud configuration
Many companies, particularly large enterprises, use VMware vSphere to run and manage their applications in their
datacenters. They want to migrate these applications to the cloud without incurring the cost and risk of re-
architecture and changing familiar IT processes. Oracle offers a solution that third-party analysts consider "the most
consistent experience with on-premises vSphere." With Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, customers maintain full
control of their VMware version, patch cycle, and security while benefiting from elastic infrastructure and native
access to the rest of OCI's services. The architecture shows the solution and provides deployment guidance.
