NewStuff series – dynamic VM shape resize in OCI with Terraform
I am trying to follow constantly updated release notes of OCI. Nearly every single day we have something new there, so sometimes it really hard to follow all of the news there.

Dinner for tonight – ATP again :)
More then a year ago in this post, I have initiated OCI ATP provisioning topic. After a year I have rewritten the whole repo. Not only because HCL 0.12 is a formal standard now, and all Terraform code was outdated.

How to use Terraform and OCI – lesson 7
Oracle is well known for its database, for more than 30 years, meaning for many people on the market, the term database means Oracle and long, long nothing else.

Instead, we were covering cloud networking (VCN, subnets, route tables, load balancers), security (security lists) … Continue reading How to use Terraform and OCI – lesson 7
