This post walks through the process of creating a simple Python web service and deploying it to an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instance. Then, you deploy an API gateway and expose the instance through the gateway while applying the rate limiting rule. The API gateway allows you to configure the path prefixes and routes, and enable features such as authentication, CORS policies, and rate limiting.

Using Resource Manager solution templates

Resource Manager is an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) service that lets you automate the process of provisioning your OCI resources. Using Terraform,...

Resource Manager is an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) service that lets you automate the process of provisioning your OCI resources. Using Terraform, Resource Manager helps you install, configure, and manage resources through the infrastructure-as-code (IaC) model. A Terraform configuration codifies your infrastructure in declarative configuration files. Resource Manager lets you share and manage infrastructure configuration and state files across multiple teams and...

Working with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Registry

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Registry is an Oracle-managed registry that helps you simplify your development-to-production workflow. Registry makes it easy for you as a developer to store, share, and manage development artifacts like Docker images. And the highly available and scalable architecture of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) ensures that you can reliably deploy your applications. You don’t have to worry about operational issues or scaling the underlying...

Incorporating DevSecOps into Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes with Check Point's Infinity Architecture

As application developers, our goal is to produce secure, robust code that meets business needs and is easy to maintain, extend, and support with the least...

As application developers, our goal is to produce secure, robust code that meets business needs and is easy to maintain, extend, and support with the least effort. Within that framework, the challenge of securing our code can be a never-ending whack-a-mole exercise that robs us of precious development time.

Working with NoSQL databases in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

In this post, you learn how to create a simple REST API backend and connect to a NoSQL database table. You use Node.js and rhw Oracle NoSQL Database library to...

In this post, you learn how to create a simple REST API backend and connect to a NoSQL database table. You use Node.js and rhw Oracle NoSQL Database library to connect to the NoSQL table in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The REST API backend supports creating, listing, and deleting tasks from the table.

The Twelve-Factor App manifesto, created by engineers at Heroku around 2011, contains twelve best practices for building software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. Although cloud development has evolved since this manifesto came out, the principles still apply to cloud native application development. This post describes how.

Application load balancing on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Load Balancing service distributes traffic from one entry point to multiple servers reachable from your virtual cloud network...

The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Load Balancing service distributes traffic from one entry point to multiple servers reachable from your virtual cloud network (VCN). The service provides a load balancer with your choice of a public or private IP address, and provisioned bandwidth. A load balancer improves resource use, facilitates scaling, and helps to ensure high availability. You can configure multiple load balancing policies and application-specific health checks to ensure...

Autoscaling your workload on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

In this post, you learn about instance pools, instance configurations, and autoscaling configurations for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instances....

In this post, you learn about instance pools, instance configurations, and autoscaling configurations for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instances. You can use instance pools to create multiple compute instances from the same configuration and manage them as a group. With an autoscaling configuration, you can automatically adjust the number of compute instances in an instance pool. An autoscaling configuration helps you provide a consistent performance when demand...
