1. **On-Demand Self-Service** — Provision resources without human interaction with the provider 2. **Broad Network Access** — Available over standard networks from various device types 3. **Resource Pooling** — Multi-tenant sharing of physical infrastructure 4. **Rapid Elasticity** — Scale up/down quickly to match demand 5. **Measured Service** — Usage is monitored and billed (utility model) Mnemonic: **O**nly **B**rilliant **R**unners **E**xcel **M**arathons

OCI Foundations is a Oracle certification. These facts come from the current exam guide and are the numbers to plan around.
| Domain | Weight | What to focus on |
|---|---|---|
| OCI Architecture and Core Services | 30% | Regions, availability domains, and fault domains, High availability and disaster recovery, Resource Manager, Monitoring, Logging, and Events |
| OCI Networking | 15% | VCN, subnets, route tables, security lists, NSGs, Internet, NAT, Service, DRG, and peering gateways, Load Balancer, FastConnect, and Site-to-Site VPN |
| OCI Compute | 15% | VM, bare metal, and flexible shapes, Instance pools and autoscaling, OKE, Container Instances, and Functions |
| OCI Storage | 15% |
| Object Storage tiers and lifecycle management, Block Volume and backups, File Storage and Archive Storage |
| Cloud Concepts | 10% | IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS service models, Benefits of cloud: elasticity, pay-as-you-go, Shared responsibility model |
| Identity and Access Management | 10% | Compartments, groups, dynamic groups, Policy syntax and verbs (inspect/read/use/manage), Federation, MFA, Cloud Guard, and Vault |
| OCI Database | 5% | Autonomous Database (ATP and ADW), Base Database and Exadata Database Service, MySQL HeatWave and NoSQL Database |
Yes. You can start 1Z0-1085-24 practice and flashcards free without creating an account. A free account keeps your progress, and the full bank (300+ questions) unlocks with a subscription.
They cover all 7 domains of the 1Z0-1085-24 exam: OCI Architecture and Core Services (30%), OCI Networking (15%), OCI Compute (15%), OCI Storage (15%), Cloud Concepts (10%), Identity and Access Management (10%), OCI Database (5%). Each section is weighted in the same proportion as the real exam, so nothing high-value is buried.
The 1Z0-1085-24 exam has approximately 40 questions in 90 minutes, with a passing score of 65%. Use the practice questions to confirm you are consistently above that line before booking the real exam.
Study in short, spaced sessions: a card you have not seen for two days is worth more than a card you reread immediately. Filter by OCI Architecture and Core Services first, then mix domains so you practise identifying the topic before recalling the definition.
They are the recall half of preparation. Pair the cards with practice questions and at least one timed practice exam — candidates who only review cards usually recognise terms but miss scenario questions.
