The cloud computing services offered by Oracle Corporation are commonly known as Oracle Cloud. The Oracle Cloud offers servers, storage services, networks, and more that get delivered to the customers using a global network that consists of several data centers managed by Oracle Corporation. Each cloud of Oracle Corporation is deployed in a region where each region consists of three availability zones that are fault-independent. There are individual data centers inside each of these availability zones, and these data centers are isolated in terms of power and network.
Oracle Virtual Cloud Networks (VCNs) offers private and customizable cloud networks in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Like a traditional data center network, the Virtual Cloud Networks (VCN) provides complete control over their cloud networking environment.
