OpenAI Selects Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to Extend Microsoft Azure AI Platform

Lots of shade being thrown, I'm surprised at all the toxic bile. All cloud providers are fundamentally in a race to the bottom for commoditization of compute infrastructure. The competition should be desirable.

Anyhow, if I had to guess why ClosedAI made this decision, well there are lots of big companies who like Oracle Cloud because if the spend is sufficient, Oracle will literally build and then support whatever configurations you want in any region across the entire globe. Good luck getting that level of care from AWS, Azure, or Goggle.

In my experience OCI is still better than GCP, not that it's really saying much, AWS has been the "best" IME :)

Clouds can't love you back.

What are your gripes with GCP? I've been using it for every project for a while, and am super happy with it, especially GKE.

Maybe you weren't burned by the near periodic massive GCP outages from 2019 - 2023. More power to you, but I'm not signing up for more of that.

6+ years on GCP across half a dozen kubernetes clusters here... very little to complain about IME. Have fun with Oracle.
