Overview As cloud usage grows, including multi-cloud, it is essential to have a governance model to improve security posture, ensure compliance, and manage costs. Cloud Governance, in general, is defined as the set of rules and processes that improve overall security and compliance and also ensures success in the cloud environment within a given budget constraint. While you manage the cloud and put knuckles where needed, you want to make sure it does not impact the speed of...

Introduction Earlier this year my colleague Andrei Stoian (Bogdan) published a blog post that highlights the steps for interconnecting OCI and AWS via native VPN services from both vendors. Once you have the tunnel up and running, and the respective route and security rules are in place, the next logical step is to leverage the internal DNS services of the Virtual Networks. In this post I will provide step by step details for configuring the Internal DNS resolver on both...

.cb11w1 ul li, .cb11w1 ol li { line-height: 1.4em; color: #404040 } Instance Pools (especially in combination with rules for automatic scaling) are a great feature of OCI to automate the scaling of compute resources to match fluctuating demand. Examples can be seasonal or weekly peaks or a compute pool in a DR scenario. Instance Pools are quickly configured in the OCI console, although you can of course also manage them with the OCI CLI, terraform or other supported methods...

As part of the OCI Designer Toolkit (OKIT) series we will look at how OKIT integrates with OCIs Resource Manager to create Resource Manager stacks, apply those stacks and update them. Resource Manager OKIT enables the user to export to Terraform or Ansible allowing DevOps to integrate into their currently established Infrastructure as Code workflow. One of the more interesting options is OKIT's ability to integrate with OCIs Resource Manager. This integration allows...
