Decoding the Cloud: Your Ultimate Glossary and Cross-Reference Guide
To help you sort all the cloud jargon, I created a comprehensive, free glossary and cross-reference for cloud service names.
What sets this glossary apart from other similar cross-references is its inclusion of:
- Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
- On-premises technologies
- Wide breath of services
As the major cloud vendors — Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) — offer similar services under different names, it can be challenging to navigate the landscape and understand the offerings. This glossary is designed to bridge that gap, providing clear definitions and direct comparisons of equivalent services across these platforms.

Whether you are new to cloud technology or new to one of the cloud vendors, this resource should help you demystify the terminology and map familiar services to their counterparts across different vendors.
Hopefully you find this simplifies your learning journey and empowers you to learn cloud services faster.
