The Oracle Cloud Marketplace provides a single platform where customers can discover, evaluate, and launch a rich ecosystem of click-to-deploy images and end-to-end solution stacks provided by Oracle and independent software vendor (ISV) partners. We’re pleased to announce the latest enhancement to the Oracle Cloud Marketplace: the ability to bill on behalf of our partners through the Marketplace. With an Oracle Cloud Marketplace "paid listing" capability, customers can now...

The Oracle Cloud Marketplace continues to offer images and fully integrated solution stacks for leading security and networking products. At OpenWorld 2019, we're excited to team up with both new and long-time ISV partners to unveil security and networking offerings that are not only simple to deploy at a click, but also easy to consume. You have the flexibility to either bring your own license or leverage a paid listing (new this OpenWorld), and to pay as you go by the hour...

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is the ideal platform for enterprises that depend on and need to migrate their on-premises-based enterprise applications to the cloud. We offer the only marketplace where you can download Oracle Applications and middleware images, fully automated solution stacks, and automated migration and lifecycle management tooling for Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Siebel, and WebLogic.  We also understand that you might have applications...

At OpenWorld 2019, we’re pleased to highlight some new and existing independent software vendor (ISV) partners who bring ground-breaking solutions to the Oracle Cloud Marketplace to support your critical data-management and analytics use cases. These partner solutions are available as images and as fully integrated Terraform-based stacks that you can deploy with a click. In addition, you can bring your own license (BYOL) or choose a newly launched paid listing so that you...

In this post, I demonstrate how you can quickly create a Kubernetes cluster on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure by using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE) service. Then I showcase how you can achieve a significant performance boost by running applications on Container Engine for Kubernetes bare metal instances, and I perform a comparison by running the same workload on Container Engine for Kubernetes virtual machine (VM) instances. Oracle Cloud...

Kubernetes has become the de facto tool for managing distributed containerized applications. If you build a cloud app today and want it to be truly multicloud and portable, Kubernetes is your choice! Although Kubernetes is awesome, there are a few challenges associated with it when you want to build something on top of it in a continuous delivery (CD) fashion and make developers more productive. With traditional Jenkins (Jenkins 2.0), you can implement a continuous delivery...

In my previous blog post, I demonstrated how to deploy Jenkins in a master/slave architecture on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure by using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute plugin for Jenkins. This plugin enables you to spin up virtual machine (VM) or bare metal instances as slaves/agents on-demand within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and then tear them down automatically after the job is complete. By spinning up a large number of agents, Jenkins can run many jobs...

In my previous blog post, we discussed how to deploy Jenkins on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and dynamically scale it by leveraging the Master/slave architecture of Jenkins, using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute plugin. In this post, let’s look into how to setup a Continuous Integration pipeline on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), utilizing the Jenkins setup we already created. The most important step for continuous delivery of software is Continuous Integration...

Faster software development has become a competitive advantage for companies. The automation of software development processes facilitates speed and consistency, which led to the rise for having a Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery and Deployment (CD) pipelines. Jenkins is a very popular product among Oracle Cloud Infrastructure customers, which can automate all of the phases of CI and CD. You can host Jenkins on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to centralize your...
