Your Introduction to Oracle Cloud at Customer 

Interested in the cloud for your business… but not so interested in hosting your data in someone else data center? Oracle hears you. 

Although Oracle is been regularly called out for being “late to the cloud,” the world-class tech company has proven that the key to delivering cloud capability doesn’t lie in being the first on the scene – it lies in being the best at the job. 

And Oracle Cloud has swiftly risen to becoming one of the best on the job for enterprise cloud with their Oracle Cloud at Customer offering (also called Oracle [email protected]). 

What Is Oracle Cloud at Customer? 

Simply put, Oracle Cloud at Customer is a way for compliance-burdened enterprises to enjoy the benefits of the Oracle public cloud, but have it securely housed behind their own corporate firewall.

• Eliminate hardware maintenance 

• Enjoy “pay as you go” computing & storage capacity 

• Achieve true mobility with Oracle Cloud Apps 

• Tap into cutting-edge autonomous infrastructure services

• Maintain regulatory compliance for cloud data
