Introduction Command line interfaces (CLIs) are artifacts from the stone age of the computer age. Their introduction was a big leap forward in terms of ease and speed when a computer should be directed to do what the user wants to be done. Over time CLI environments evolved and are interactive and programmable and are available on all modern operating systems, for example as shells. They are not as fancy as graphical user interfaces, but, are fast, repeatable, scriptable, and...

Introduction into existing BICC Automation BI Cloud Connector offers a broad bandwidth of options to automate the extraction of data. In various other blogs we’ve shared information how to download extraction files, log information or to delete extracts. Those scripts can be scheduled on the client side via the tools of choice. The built-in capabilities in BICC provide more and more automation as the product evolves. Scheduling frequent extraction runs was a feature that...

Introduction In my Developing SaaS Extensions using VBCS and Helidon Micro-Services part 1, I focused on the creation of a Helidon based microservice which we tested locally. This blog post takes the reading through to the next step which is to deploy the microservice on Oracle Kubernetes Service and then explain how this service can be called from VBCS in a way that the microservice is aware of the user (aka identity propagation from VBCS to the microservice) In the example...

Required time to read: < 10 minutes Introduction The most important and generally overlooked activity during cloud transformation is data migration. We always consider data migration activities as one-time technical tasks. In my experience, more than 75% of cloud implementation delays are due to data issues that are identified during the later stage in the project (integration or user acceptance testing). This leads to increased cost, timeline, go-live delays and challenges...

Introduction I recently completed a blog post on how to extend Oracle SaaS using VBCS and Oracle Functions and am in the process of publishing the code. Whilst I was writing this piece of code I learnt a lot about Functions and ran into many situations which I think a lot of other developers would run into . This blog post collates them into a single blog post (which I may update regularly) and Im hoping it is useful to you all. How to expose Functions as REST Services...

Introduction Whilst building a demo recently I had to store an oAuth client secret somewhere for Oracle Function to work properly. I immediately decided to store it in the Oracle Functions configurations section and thought all was well. The below image shows the configuration section for my application and as you can see both the IDCS client id and client secret are stored. However after a security review with my good friend (Olaf) we realised that whilst the data is...

The A-Team has received many requests for 'guidance in providing secure and resilient failover for Cloud services'. This is the normal opening question when people ask for help in this area. Having spent a large part of my career in business continuity, many non-technical aspects need to be considered and addressed before one even starts to talk let alone deploy, an architecture to achieve failover. In this blog, I will endeavour to cover several aspects when the business and...
