Oracle Cloud

One of the key features of Rocky Linux is its support for the cloud. The operating system has been designed to work seamlessly with a variety of cloud providers, including Oracle Cloud, an enterprise cloud that delivers massive, consistent performance and next generation security across a comprehensive portfolio of services including SaaS, application development, application hosting, and business analytics. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure users now have the option for deploying Rocky Linux as the host operating system for third-party applications.

Stability

When used in conjunction with Oracle Cloud, Rocky Linux can be deployed on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to provide a stable and secure platform for running enterprise-level applications. Oracle Cloud provides the necessary infrastructure, such as compute, storage, and networking, while Rocky Linux provides a stable and efficient platform for running applications.

Security

Another benefit of using Oracle Cloud and Rocky Linux together is that it allows businesses to take advantage of Oracle Cloud's extensive security features, such as encryption, identity and access management, and network security. Rocky Linux takes advantage of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s Security First approach by providing state of the art security and authentication tools supplying enhancements, patches and fixes on a regular basis.

This combination also allows organizations to reduce their overall costs by taking advantage of Oracle Cloud's pay-as-you-go pricing model, while also lowering their risk by using a community-driven, enterprise-class Linux distribution that is fully compatible with existing tools and processes.

Flexibility

Using Oracle Cloud and Rocky Linux together also provides businesses with the flexibility to run their applications on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment. This means that businesses can choose the deployment option that best meets their needs, whether that is running their applications on-premises for maximum control and security, or running them in the cloud for maximum scalability and cost-efficiency.
