Oracle Cloud Native Environment
![](sp_common/shared-images/Oracle-Cloud-Native-Environment_84_logo.png)
Oracle Cloud Native Environment is a fully integrated suite for the development and management of cloud-native applications. Oracle Cloud Native Environment is a curated set of open source projects that are based on open standards, specifications and APIs defined by the Open Container Initiative (OCI) and Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) that can be easily deployed, have been tested for interoperability and for which enterprise-grade support is offered. Oracle Cloud Native Environment delivers a simplified framework for installations, updates, upgrades and configuration of key features for orchestrating microservices.
