Scalable and Serverless Data Ingestion with OCI Functions

Scalable and Serverless Data Ingestion with OCI Functions

In this article, we will leverage OCI’s capabilities to the fullest, embracing the following principles: Scalability Resilience Flexibility Security Automation The “loadfileintoadw” project is located in the same GitHub repository used so far to discuss OCI Function fn-examples . This example will help you understand how to integrate multiple OCI services and make the most of the cloud provider. We will simulate a series of weather stations that will write a CSV file with sampling data (temperature, humidity, etc.). The sensor will automatically upload the file to an Object Storage bucket. ...

Oracle Autonomous Database

Oracle Autonomous Database

Introduction to the most modern cloud database in the market Oracle Autonomous Database is a cloud database that uses machine learning techniques to automate its tuning, security, backup, updates, and other management procedures traditionally carried out by a DBA. Unlike a conventional database, Autonomous performs all these and other activities without the need for human intervention. Why use Autonomous? Databases contain critical business data and are essential for the efficient operation of modern organizations. DBAs are often busy with repetitive and manual database management and maintenance activities. As administration activities increase, the risk of human error becomes higher with catastrophic consequences. ...

Accessing an Autonomous Database from an OCI Function

Accessing an Autonomous Database from an OCI Function

After seeing how to create a custom image, in the previous case where we installed the Oracle client, now let’s try to use this custom image to connect to an Oracle database. We will make the most of the cloud capabilities. In this example, we will use the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) methodology to provide a real example of an easily replicable architecture for everyone. The “toautonomous” project is in the same GitHub repository used so far to talk about OCI Function fn-examples . The project’s README describes the infrastructure configuration procedure. ...
