Very good security features for strengthened data protection
I am not going to speak to their roadmap. Amazon operates Bedrock as an ecosystem supporting third-party models. I am speculating here, but I am sure those third-party models will always be present. However, one must consider that Amazon native models could proliferate Bedrock in the future. We would welcome Amazon native models to Bedrock, since, if they are natively built by Amazon, they are tuned to SageMaker and other Amazon service layers. They have done this somewhat for generative AI, however, in AgenTek AI business, the only foundation models we can rely on for scaling now are the Cloud 3.5 models like Haiku and SONNET, designed for low latency and complex AI business use cases.

Suitable for OCI environment but needs to improve pricing
We haven’t had any problems with the setup of Oracle. The deployment will take less than seven to ten days since it can give good reports. For deployment, we first need to understand the customer requirements and build the architecture around the deployment. We have the customer sign off on it and then go into the software deployment side. This is the proper life cycle of how to do it in the enterprise space. There are a lot of thoughts around the initial way or how we need to structure and architect the environment. For enterprises, it is a complex process. It will take one to two months to have all the sign-offs before we can go into implementation. It is followed across all the installations. I rate the initial setup of the solution a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The no-code application of the service is beneficial since it allows creating solutions without extensive coding knowledge."
"Bedrock offers various foundational models in one place."
"The valuable feature of Bedrock is its flexibility and comprehensiveness in what it's offering, providing parameters that we can change."
"The most valuable feature of Bedrock is its security and the model's ability to modify vector dimensions easily."
"It is the best solution in this category and is rated a nine out of ten."
"The integration with pre-trained AI models has been very beneficial, allowing me to quickly access powerful machine learning models without the need to build them from scratch."
"Data encryption while in transit and at rest is managed through Bedrock account."
"Bedrock proved beneficial for generating SQL queries, which helped in delivering precise information from the database."
"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."
"The strength of this product is that they have many good database options, compared to other vendors."
"We have not had any downtime using the solution."
"The technical support is good, they have been responsive and helpful."
"This is a highly available and scalable solution that can host both modern and legacy on-premises applications."
"Apart from the licensing, there's support from Oracle Cloud Platform which improved our day to day operations. Time is reduced. Based on this service, we are able to scale up dependent applications as quickly as we can."
"What I like best about Oracle Cloud is that it is an all-in-one system for everything."
"Frankly speaking, I've been very impressed with the stability the solution offers. Everything is working very well at the moment, and we haven't had any issues or faced any bugs or glitches."
 

Cons

"It would be beneficial if Amazon Bedrock could provide multiple responses to a query, allowing users to choose the best option."
"It would be beneficial if Bedrock were optimized for hyperscale use to avoid needing a mixed approach with SageMaker."
"While working with Bedrock, I incurred charges that were not explicitly mentioned in the pricing documentation."
"The advantage of Bedrock is not as an amazing enabler of AI platforms, yet we utilize it to deploy application services and microservices within Bedrock ecosystem and leverage prequalified foundation models like Claude and others."
"The user interface of Amazon Bedrock on the management console needs improvements. It's very bland at the moment."
"Bedrock could be improved by having an API that allows for easy integration with services outside of Bedrock."
"The user interface of Amazon Bedrock on the management console needs improvements."
"One area for improvement is in cost—it tends to be a bit on the higher side, especially for enterprise versions."
"I would like the Oracle Cloud Platform to have a more user-friendly UI similar to Microsoft Azure."
"The solution's reporting part is not good and needs more development."
"The packaging part of the software needs improvement. It lacks customization abilities for users. Giving them VMs for machine learning or running their own programs like Azure and Amazon, for example. Things like scalability based on the requirement of the tools. Oracle still lacks these kinds of things. For example, if you need a VM from Oracle, you need to pay for a monthly fee. They started developing containership but it's still at the initial stage and it's still lacking. They also need to develop integration between packages."
"The biggest challenge I'm having with the cloud offering is the sizing. So, pricing becomes difficult. The sizing challenge is in terms of being very clear on how your data growth or your requirements would be. It becomes a bit difficult to be able to ensure that there's enough future proofing in what you've signed. At the same time, the whole idea behind the cloud is to be able to pay for what you use. You don't want to pay for something that you're not using."
"Pricing could be improved considering competition and market conditions."
"It should have other workloads from other suppliers running on the solution."
"I would recommend this solution to other people."
"Specific to the Oracle Cloud; while they have been able to showcase inbuilt features for Oracle applications, what doesn't really come across clearly is what happens when you want to host, work with, or integrate with applications outside of the Oracle stack."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of using Amazon Bedrock is quite high, as I incurred unexpected charges amounting to $130 USD within two weeks without actually deploying the model."
"One customer paid around $100 to $200 per month, which was significant given their overall infrastructure costs."
"Oracle Cloud Platform has a decent pricing model."
"Costing depends on if you have an existing license for the application and for the operating system."
"My ROI has increased."
"The costs involved are low when it comes to Oracle Cloud, especially when compared to AWS."
"The solution is expensive."
"Oracle offers universal credit and pay-as-you-go options."
"The price for Oracle Cloud may seem expensive, but if you start comparing features and what Oracle offers, you'll realize that the pricing for Oracle Cloud is competitive. If you consider every aspect of Oracle Cloud, you'll see that its price tag is reasonable because it has a good user interface, user experience, and management. Oracle Cloud is a sophisticated infrastructure and the level of management it allows you to enjoy isn't available in other solutions, so I wouldn't worry about needing to invest huge money into it because it's a wonderful product to use."
"Oracle Cloud's pricing is competitive. The tool changes its pricing when there is a change in its architecture."
