3. Safe Harbor Statement
The following is intended to outline our general product direction. It is intended for information purposes only, and may not be incorporated into any contract. It is not a commitment to deliver any material, code, or functionality, and should not be relied upon in making purchasing decisions. The development, release, timing, and pricing of any features or functionality described for Oracle’s products may change and remains at the sole discretion of Oracle Corporation.

4. Gen 2 Cloud Infrastructure Design Principles
Leading performance and reliability
Industry-leading compute, storage and network performance and reliability on bare metal or VMs
Advanced security
Secure infrastructure hardware and software
Better automation
Eliminate mundane tasks, managing upgrades, security patches
Lowest possible cost
SO what did we build? We built an enterprise cloud capable of running the most demanding and most innovative workloads, and we followed three key design principles.
We’ve built our cloud to support all the functionality and performance that you’ve had in your own data center, but with the benefits of increased agility, elimination of mundane tasks like managing hardware and facilities, upgrades, patches and capacity forecasting. We have deep expertise and cloud specific automation to make the migration possible without risk or high cost. We offer tools to connect our cloud to your datacenter to ours to enable the migration itself. Everything we run in our cloud is consistent with what you run in your own data center including the oracle database itself, the surrounding ecosystem of tools like RAC, Data Guard, Golden Gate and all the third party data and management tools our customers use. And we built it so that customers wouldn't take a step backwards in terms of performance when they move to cloud. We give them the abilty to run Exadata engineered systems as a cloud service, offering the highest level of performance and scalabiilty for oracle workloads, something that is widely used in on-premises environments and not available on any other cloud. We also built a cloud network with massive interconnect bandwith and no resource over-subscription to ensure that noisy neighbor isn’t an issue and the high performance we deliver isn’t variable depending on external factors. We’re so confident about the capabilities of the cloud to deliver consistent enterprise grade perforemance that we have an industry first SLA that covers availability, performance and manageability, while our developer centric cloud competitors offer far more limited SLA terms.

11. 24x7 Support Included
Premier Support included in Oracle Cloud at no additional cost
Oracle Linux
KVM
Ksplice
Cloud Native Environment
Backed by an industry-leading engineering and QA team
Support for Oracle Linux is affordable and the release is free to both download and distribute, unlike other commercial Linux distributions.
Adding even greater value, Oracle bundles significant capabilities such as Ksplice for zero-downtime updates, support for Docker containers, DTrace, Oracle OpenStack, Oracle Clusterware for High Availability (HA), and more—at no additional charge with an Oracle Linux Premier Support contract.
Moreover, customers who are using Oracle Cloud infrastructure services have the option to use Oracle Linux with Premier Support at no additional cost. Thus customers receive greater value from their Linux support investment, allowing IT organizations to achieve a higher return on investment (ROI).
