Summarizing time zone management

Nowadays, data is no longer placed and processed locally. Instead, cloud technologies are used. Oracle provides many cloud locations allowing the provisioning of databases, infrastructure, and many other resources. The number of cloud locations is continuously rising, offering you a wide range of technologies and parameters. But the greatest advantage is, you do not need to hire system administrators. You do not need to manage and optimize the structure. You do not need to maintain hardware. The cloud vendors supervise all the infrastructure, management, patching, and global availability. All data is encrypted, secured, and duplicated, so robustness and reliability can be ensured. Thanks to that, more and more systems are migrated to the cloud to minimize costs and maximize performance. In terms of time management, different temporal aspects must be highlighted. Namely, there is the region where the cloud data center is located. There is also the UTC...
