The Oracle Cloud Marketplace is a location where customers can discover partner provided applications and services that complement the Oracle Public Cloud services. It is also a location where partners can list and promote cloud based applications and services that extend, integrate with, or build on Oracles Public Cloud services. This is an interesting concept that has various ways of joining customers to partners and giving partners view into what customers are looking at,...

At OpenWorld 2013, Oracle announced the Cloud Marketplace. This is a place where customers can download or purchase solutions that are not stock out of the box images to boot from. For example, if you want a LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) you could boot a Linux image, install the three other components as well as update the operating system with the latest patches. Alternatively you could search for LAMP in the Marketplace and get an image in a few minutes rather than...

Today we are going to wrap up our detailed discussion with networking. We will probably revisit network performance at a later time but we are going to get out of the weeds today and talk about things at a slightly higher level. Yesterday we looked at screen shots of the Oracle, AWS, and Azure security lists and rules. It is important to note that Azure only offers TCP and UDP as rules. You can't define firewall and routing rules for other protocols. Amazon allows for ICMP...

Today we are going to explore how to configure and setup the basics of networking for a Linux compute instance in the Oracle Cloud. If you would like to read more about network configurations you should refer to the Oracle Compute Cloud Services (IaaS) documentation. We are specifically interested in chapter 7, Configuring Network Settings. Terms like security list, security rules, and roles play a part of the configuration. By default security is locked down and no traffic...

For the last two days we have been going through TCP/IP Illustrated Volume I. We are going to shift gears a little bit and look at the OSI stack from the perspective of another book. Today we are going to look at VPN Illustrated: Tunnels, VPNs, and IPSec by Jon C. Snader. We are shifting to another book because the TCP/IP Illustrated is an excellent book for Computer Scientists who want to know the nuts and bolts of how computers talk to each other. Things have changed since...

We are going through the OSI 7 layer stack and looking at the different layers. Yesterday we stared the discussion by looking at Kevin Fall and Richard Steven's book TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 1. In this book they describe the different layers and look at the how, what, and why of the design. Today we will focus on layers 2 and 3 the link layer and network layer. Alternate sources of information about these layers can be found athttp://tcpipguide.comHow Stuff Works - a great...

Back in 1998 I was working for Sun Microsystems and took an introductory class on networking. One of the big benefits of working for Sun is that it had a very strong affiliation with Stanford University and employees could take classes at no cost. An early rumor was that Sun really stood for Stanford University Networking since two of the founders of the company were living in the Stanford dorms during the early years of Sun. Stanford for years has offered CS 144 -...

Today we are going to do a compare and contrast with Oracle Orchestration and Amazon CloudFormation. The two have the same objectives and can perform the same operations when provisioning an instance. The key difference is the way that they both operate and define the elements needed to create an instance. In the past few days we have gone through and looked that the three files needed to provision a WordPress blog. Information on Oracle Orchestration can be found in the...

Today we will continue our evaluation of Oracle Orchestration by looking at how to define an instance. Yesterday we looked at creating a WordPress instance from an Oracle Marketplace image. We started by going down the structure of a storage element. Today we are going to continue with our Bitnami WordPress instance provisioning by looking at the bitnami-wordpress-4.5.3-0-linux-_20160721144012_instance.json file which describes the compute instance. The default install...
