This is the second part of my OCI Private DNS posts. You can read the first part from here. In this post I will extend my configuration to have two VCN’s which will be connected via Local Peering Gateways together. Other VCN will have Private Zone for thatfinnishguy.com and the other VCN for somethingelse.com. Both…
I’ve wanted to write something about this topic for quite a while and finally OCI has released it’s first step of Private DNS capabilities! Why do I think this is a big thing? For example let’s say you need to have Hub & Spoke model with multiple VCNs, if you’ve wanted to resolve hostnames between…
With the recent announcement of Observability and Management platform I thought it’s good to try out how can we fetch logs from provisioned instances in OCI. In this post I’ll be making sure the instance I’m using has the Monitoring Agent required installed. Also I’ll make sure I have Log Group, Logs and Agent Configuration…
So a while back OCI got NSGs (Network Security Groups) but most what I still see with implementations is that people tend to use Security Lists. Remember Security Lists are applied on subnet level while NSGs are applied to VNICs. I recently got following dilemma on tenancy created a while back. Challenge All the subnets…
This time I wanted to show how simple it is to create multiple compartments with one module using Terraform 0.12. Compartments in OCI are way to separate your resources and control access on them, you can also move resources around from one compartment to another if needed. Remember one of the reasons one would like…

In this post I’ll try to share on how I studied on the test and what areas I feel helped me on passing the certification. I won’t be posting any questions or answers but rather want to help you on studying…
Oracle Groundbreaker’s Appreciation day time. Read more about from here! I’m a fan of looking “dull” features of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and thought Compartments would fit right into it on #ThanksOGB day. Compartments are way to control access and separate resources in your OCI tenancy. And actually tenancy is the root compartment of your compartments!…
I have an old post how to create three instances in OCI with modules using Terraform 0.11 but since 0.12 came out I’ve been wanting to rewrite it to show what we can achieve with new features introduced in TF 0.12. In this post I will once again create those instances but now the modules…
Some time ago I published a post where I took a test drive with OCI Autoscaling. Now after an eventful summer I think it’s time to retest Autoscaling mainly due to some enhancements we have seen. If you want to get more details on Autoscaling then please read the older post and remarks I’ve made…
I had a task to configure email sending from our OCI Exadata recently and having done it earlier for on-premise Exadata I was expecting a trivial task. Not so fast! First of all OCI documentation for the Email Delivery is clear and available here. In short what you need to do is setup user with…
