Fly.io vs Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

Fly.io is strongest for full-stack apps needing global low latency. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is strongest for enterprises running Oracle DB workloads. Here's how they stack up on price, uptime, and support.

Feature	Fly.io	Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
Starting price	$0.01/mo	$0.01/mo
Best for	Full-stack apps needing global low latency Docker-native deploys Small teams wanting per-second billing Postgres close to compute	Enterprises running Oracle DB workloads Cost-sensitive compute at scale ARM (Ampere) workloads Autonomous Database users
Stated uptime SLA	No blanket platform SLA published; Enterprise support plans include custom SLAs	99.95%
Storage	SSD	NVME
Regions	35	49
Managed Kubernetes	Yes	Yes
Support channels	Community forum, Docs, Ticket (paid support plans), Enterprise Slack (Enterprise plan)	Ticket, Docs, Community forum, Phone (paid support tiers)
Compliance	SOC 2	SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, FedRAMP
Hidden costs to watch for	Machine prices vary by region -- the reference/base rates in this dataset are for the Amsterdam (ams) region; several regions carry a price premium Extra RAM beyond a preset's base allocation is billed separately (~$5 per 30 days per additional GB, prorated per-second) Stopped Machines still incur a rootfs storage charge of $0.15/GB per month Volume snapshots are billed at $0.08/GB per month above the first 10GB free per month Dedicated (non-shared) egress IPs are billed hourly (~$0.005/hr, ~$3.60/mo) in addition to the free shared IPv4 Cross-region private networking traffic is billed per GB and varies sharply by region group (Africa/India up to $0.12/GB egress) Wildcard/extra SSL certificates beyond the first 10 free per org are billed monthly	Block Volume performance (VPU) is billed separately from raw capacity and charged for the tier selected regardless of actual I/O used Autonomous Database storage billed separately from OCPU/ECPU compute Enhanced OKE clusters add a $0.10/hour control-plane fee (capped at $74.40/month) on top of worker node costs Archive Storage restores take hours and carry a 90-day minimum retention charge if deleted early Object Storage Infrequent Access tier carries a per-GB retrieval fee and minimum retention period
