help Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Instances FAQ
What are Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Instances?
OCI Container Instances run containers without requiring the user to manage virtual machines or a Kubernetes cluster. They are intended for services, jobs, and applications that need isolated container compute with a simpler operations model.
Do OCI Container Instances require Kubernetes?
No. A container instance can be created and run directly through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure without deploying an OCI Kubernetes Engine cluster. Kubernetes is still an option when the workload needs orchestration across many services.
Can an OCI Container Instance run more than one container?
A container instance can support a group of containers that share a network namespace and lifecycle. This can be useful for a main application container paired with a sidecar or helper container.
How do OCI Container Instances differ from Azure Container Instances?
Both services provide serverless-style container execution without user-managed virtual machines. OCI Container Instances are integrated with Oracle Cloud features such as VCN networking and Oracle IAM, while Azure Container Instances are integrated with Azure networking and identity services.
