Practical Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

More about the book

This fast-paced guide helps you build cloud-based solutions on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. You'll gain a solid understanding of cloud infrastructure, learning to launch new applications and migrate existing ones. Key trends in software architecture are explored, including autonomous platforms, infrastructure as code, containerized applications, cloud-based container orchestration with managed Kubernetes, and serverless workloads using open-source tools. Practical examples enhance your learning experience. You'll discover how to self-provision the necessary cloud resources for your custom applications via a user-friendly web console and programmable APIs, and manage your infrastructure as code with Terraform. The guide enables you to plan, design, implement, deploy, run, and monitor production-grade, fault-tolerant cloud software solutions in Oracle's global data centers, with a pay-as-you-go model for resource usage. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers a comprehensive suite of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) capabilities (compute, storage, networking), edge services (DNS, web application firewall), and Platform as a Service (PaaS) options, including Oracle Autonomous Database for transactional and analytical workloads, the fully managed Oracle Kubernetes Engine, and a serverless platform based on the open-source Fn Project. You'll learn to build software solutions, automate infrastructure with CLI and Terraform, follow b
