Oracle offers suites of integrated applications plus secure, autonomous infrastructure in the Oracle Cloud. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has made tremendous progress. Big customer wins from companies including 8×8, Naveego, Phenix and Zoom show that Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is providing services that businesses trust to better serve their own customers. These advances are getting noticed.

For example, Oracle earned the best customer satisfaction score among all the major IaaS providers in an annual survey conducted by a leading analyst firm. In the 2020 Industry CloudPath survey that IDC recently released where it surveyed 935 IaaS customers on their satisfaction with top IaaS vendors including Oracle, Amazon Web Services, Microsoft, IBM, Google Cloud, Oracle IaaS received the highest satisfaction score and the biggest year-over-year score increase of all IaaS vendors.

In addition, 86% of those surveyed said they expect their spend on Oracle IaaS OCI to increase in the future. Other recent research also shows Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has the highest percentage of year-over-year improvement compared to other cloud competitors.

Oracle Cloud is the first public cloud built from the ground up to be a better cloud for every application. By rethinking core engineering and systems design for cloud computing, we created innovations that accelerate migrations, deliver better reliability and performance for all applications, and offer the complete services customers need to build innovative cloud applications.
