Introduction For mission critical applications running on cloud, it becomes important to have a robust mechanism to monitor your cloud infrastructure (including applications and databases) and get alarmed for any failures/issues. This blog post talks specifically about Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring, Events and Notification service to monitor and capture service events for your autonomous database and database systems. An autonomous database is a fully...

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Monitoring Service provides a convenient way of accessing metric data for multiple OCI services (listed in “Supported Services” section of the Monitoring Overview page). OCI customers can access metric data in multiple ways – in OCI console or by using the Grafana Plug-in for creating dashboards for querying and displaying monitoring data in graphical format or by using SDKs/APIs. New features for OCI are being released at a very fast pace....

Introduction Oracle CASB Cloud Service's (hereafter referred to as CASB) core functionalities are evaluating user behavior, generating risk-event alerts on policy match and detection of weak security controls of a monitored target among various other features. It is crucial to understand how an event that occurred at source is captured in CASB, whether the event qualifies for CASB's evaluation of security baseline monitoring and/or policy monitoring. This blog aims to help...

Oracle CASB Cloud Service (hereafter referred to as CASB) quickly gives you visibility into security of your cloud applications and services to help ensure that your critical data is secure. CASB provides these capabilities by frequently pulling in audit log information from various supported cloud services, analyzing them, running machine learning algorithms on them and generating risk events. Customers’ SOC could view and analyze these risk events to take appropriate...

Next Step In the eventual destination of this journey we are looking to demonstrate cloud native capabilities, elastic load handling, zero downtime operations, agile application updates, dynamic feature testing capability etc. In Part 1 we saw how to take an example application that has been packaged in a docker image, customize it slightly and put the customized image up on an OCI Registry.The next step here in Part 2 we'll look at elastic load handling. The load we are...

There are times when we need to encapsulate certain traffic flows in an overlay network. Hopefully it's a rare need, as it adds additional header overhead, processing requirements and complexity to an environment. Drawbacks aside, the ability to create overlay networks is a valuable necessity sometimes and is a good tool to have in your tool belt! Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) is a common tunneling protocol, allowing for encapsulating both IP and non-IP protocols...

Applications When applications were called programs if you needed your computer to do something you wrote the code, compiled, linked, loaded and ran the program. If you had an elaborate problem you would write, trade or buy subroutine libraries and construct an application out of routines from libraries. To change the program, modify the code and subroutine libraries as needed. Building an application in the cloud era is conceptually similar but now we are assembling...

Introduction This post will walkthrough the elements required, and purpose of each, to make a curl request to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) REST services. While there are a variety of tools offered that make this task far easier than manually constructing a curl request, the purpose of this post is to provide an explanation of the required elements to make an OCI REST request and hopefully give a deeper understanding to those interested - especially if you ever want to...

Introduction Standing up infrastructure requires building networks, servers and storage entailing complex build and configuration management processes. Traditionally done with scripts or even manually, Terraform gives you a new alternative. Using Terraform you can write a declarative description of your infrastructure. Using the Terraform "compiler" the declaration is converted to a build plan and then the Terraform "builder" connects to your OCI tenancy and executes the...
