Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

Master high-performance cloud for enterprise. Learn OCI's unique networking, Autonomous Database, and bare metal compute capabilities.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is built for performance-intensive enterprise workloads. This course covers the OCI architecture, differentiating it from AWS/Azure with its flat networking and bare metal focus. You will master the Autonomous Database for self-driving SQL workloads, configure Virtual Cloud Networks (VCN), and manage identity. We also explore OCI's migration tools for moving legacy Oracle applications to the cloud with minimal refactoring.
