Hi [subscriber:firstname | default:subscriber],
|
Happy Friday! What an interesting week, so many new features and posts that it's been exciting to read all about them.
|
Biggest announcement was the OCI Observability and Management Platform, that's the question which is raised by many when they look around OCI and think how they could start using services. But it's here now!
|
Platform will cover variety of different services which I'll go through below.
|
Also super interesting post from Rodrigo on how to get more information on those native backup buckets in OCI which we know so little about.
|
And I noticed mention about Exadata Flex shapes coming on Twitter which hopefully we can talk about next week!
|
New Features
|
Logging Analytics is also part of the platform, you should be able to take deep dive on your logging data and analyze it deeper and pinpoint any specific anomalies for example! To confuse everyone it seems Analytics and Logging both use different agents on the compute instances if you want to fetch OS data.
|
And what might interest for many is OCI Database Management which is also on Limited Availability. I'd love to get rid of OEM installations on OCI with multiple VCN's and variety of targets but even if you only monitor databases will this be enough?
|
|
|
Service Connector Hub is a new service which moves data between OCI services and also to third-party tools. Services like Object Storage, Streaming and Monitoring are use cases for it!

Blogs & News

OCI Grafana Plugins are back! For whatever reason they were off for a while but now they are here and you can start using them again, I know this is good news for many.

My first time experience with OCI Logging Service, it's good but leaves you frustrated on few setup related things which aren't so clear. For example why isn't the agent included in the OL image like said and why do I have to restart the agent before everything works? Small things but I doubt they would have been impossible to resolve before launch.
