Secret weapon for cheap cloud GPUs if you tolerate OCI quirks. Not the agent-native DX winner.

Strengths

  • · Often sharp GPU list prices
  • · Enterprise OCI integration
  • · Good for cost-sensitive cloud shops

Weaknesses

  • · DX and AI ecosystem thinner than AWS/GCP
  • · Quota/availability frustration common
  • · Fewer AI-native templates

Pricing notes

As of 2026-09-14: OCI GPU instances with historically aggressive promotional pricing vs AWS/Azure/GCP; enterprise contracts and free-tier-adjacent CPU still part of the story. DX and marketplace friction remain the tradeoff vs RunPod/Lambda.
