Hey [subscriber:firstname | default:subscriber],
|
Hope you've managed to stay safe!
|
This week we've had lot of announcements dropping in - Some really cool things like Oracle Golden Gate Service, File System Cloning, Application Performance Monitoring and much more!
|
Also it's great to see more community members posting on OCI and Oracle being active on the OCI Developer side!
|
There was a huge issue with OCI services earlier this week, as usual it was related to.. DNS! Thanks for all people working on the issue and getting it fixed so quickly.
|
Are you a student, or know someone? Oracle has a hackathon in April and students are invited. What a great initiative!
|
|
What's new?
|
Let's start with the Application Performance Monitoring! Part of the Observability Platform it will provide you in-depth toolbox to debug performance issues on different layers.
|
I'm really keen on getting working more with Observability platform OCI has, I haven't seen it being leveraged too much yet but there's been lots of interest on capabilities it has.
|
|
|
I've been waiting on this; Golden Gate Service now natively on OCI!
|
Since the service costs I really didn't want to deploy instance on my own tenancy yet, but you can see few nice things when creating deployment.
|
Service can scale up to 3x of provisioned OCPUs (like ADB!) and you don't need to choose VCN compartment first but it will instead let you choose subnet directly. Such a nice UI feature.
|
|
|
OCI Golden Gate Documentation is here. Sort of.. there's bunch of additional documentation which goes into detail of the service here. Which is it Oracle? I've been rooting for OCI documentation to be top notch but I'm confused will documentation be moving to the new site or is this just that they want to keep half of docs on other platform?
|
Congrats on the new service though, it's gonna be a great addition overall in the long run.
|
|
|
What about File System Service cloning? There's some good design decisions here when you clone it. First of all, you only pay for changed blocks/date when you do a clone.
|
While FSS is more expensive compared to Block Volume it provides far superior features, now if you think about EBS shared filesystem cloning this could be good price saver as well?
|
The feature is shown in detail here and official documentation should be here.. but at least right now, it's not there!
|
|
|
Data Integration got a huge update! Release notes has all the new features nicely combined, there's also a post on the blog section about it. Official announcement on it here.
|
|
|
|
|
SMS notifications! These are only available for Monitoring and Service Connector right now but I would imagine SMS will get more services added soon.
