Cloud Storage

Oracle Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) provides high performance, scalable, durable, and secure storage services for any workload in the cloud. Scale up to 1.3 million IOPS and 1 PB per instance. Benefit from eleven 9s of durability. Control security policy on your own terms.

OCI storage services offer performance for up to 50x less


1. Store data in the cloud for up to 50x less

OCI storage prices are significantly lower than other clouds. Enable automatic tuning so the performance adjusts between limits you set—all at competitively low prices.

2. Get high storage performance to match modern cloud workloads

OCI storage shatters the million IOPS barrier to accelerate high performance I/O workloads such as artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) and 3D modeling and simulation.

3. Achieve more efficient data management

Use OCI storage lifecycle management policies to automate tiering or locking down data in line with compliance requirements. You can also create multiregion or global storage for distributed teams with tools such as replication.
