Hey [subscriber:firstname | default:subscriber],
|
Wow sorry! Three weeks went fast and I honestly didn't feel like writing the newsletter as there weren't that many features coming out lately.
|
I've been also tied up with some cool Autonomous Database Dedicated work, plan writing a post on that later on.
|
|
What's new?
|
Let's start with all the database updates! Exadata X9M came out and while it's only out for Cloud @ Customer and on-premises now I would expect it will be soon for OCI as well.
|
|
|
Autonomous Database by default supports mTLS (mutual TLS), now you can configure it to use also TLS. There are some network requirements if you plan to do so, reading documentation on this will help to see what needs to be done.

|
|
Shielded Instances - these are available for BM and VM shapes and harden the firmware security on the instances for any malicious boot level activity. There are different features available with some restrictions/limitations how they can be used.
|
|
|
Supposedly it only supports instances with public connectivity so that's still a limitation for many.
|
|
|
API Gateway and OCI Functions both now support Network Security Groups. No link, you just need to believe in this.

I did the OCI Professional Architect exam recently, very easy process with the new Oracle registration/exam platform! Some reflections available, it's a good exam to learn OCI deeper than just basics.

Have you worked much with OCI Streaming? This article has some details on setting it up and working with Streaming.

Here is a handy guide, if you have multiple OCI tenancies then how to setup single sign-on for all of them? Now if there would be just some consolidated way to manage multiple tenancies..
