Job description

Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer (DRCC) – A complete Solution within the customer’s data center

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Dedicated Region brings all of OCI’s public cloud benefits and services (IaaS / PaaS / SaaS) in a physical location of the customer’s choosing. This enables them to avoid the challenges of building their own cloud by using Oracle cloud experts to install, manage, and support a cloud region within their data center. Customers can start small and then scale on demand as their workloads grow without having to invest in idle resources ahead of time. Operating on-prem, OCI Dedicated Region allows customers to retain full control of their data and applications to meet the highest security, regulatory, and data residency requirements. OCI Dedicated Region provides the elasticity and utility of a public cloud with the granular control, security, and predictability of an on-prem infrastructure. With DRCC, enterprises and governments avoid the challenges of building a cloud by using Oracle to install, manage, and support a cloud region.

• Deploy a complete OCI cloud region in your data center instead of building one from scratch. Oracle provides cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and security controls.
• Bring all 130+ of OCI public cloud services on-premises to run all workloads.
• Deploy IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS services: Compute, Storage, Networking, Autonomous Database, Exadata, and much more.
• Start small, activate fast, and scale on demand. With full insight into consumption resources, expand to over 450 racks with ease.
• Grow flexibly for advanced capabilities like high-performance computing (HPC), GPU workloads, big data applications, and more.
