Oracle Announces New Cloud Native Services
What Is Cloud Native?
“Cloud native” technologies leverage the cloud to build and operate applications. These technologies are characterized by the use of containers, microservices, serverless functions, development pipelines, and infrastructure expressed as code. Cloud native enables faster software development and the ability to build applications that are resilient, manageable, observable and dynamically scalable to global enterprise levels.
Oracle is a Platinum member of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, which oversees several projects. The CNCF states that “cloud native technologies enable software developers to build great products faster.“ Consider the following examples:
- Using containers provides better environment consistency, faster deployment, portability, and scalability
- Using microservices enables different teams to build and test different parts of an application simultaneously, speeding up software development
- Using continuous integration allows developers to quickly iterate on software builds
- Using infrastructure as code reduces the time taken to deploy servers, storage, and networking, thereby increasing efficiency
Cloud Native Challenges and Oracle’s Value
Cloud Native Challenges
Cloud native technologies require developers, DevOps professionals, and software architects to adopt a new set of frameworks, which can present challenges.
- Do-it-yourself (DIY) approaches may lack enterprise-grade reliability, security, scaling, and manageability
- Fragmented tools can be complicated to integrate together and expensive to maintain
- Proprietary solutions can lock in organizations to a vendor which uses custom APIs and nonstandard software stacks.
Oracle’s Value for Cloud Native
Oracle offers a set of services that can increase productivity, lower risk, and accelerate innovation across public, private, and hybrid clouds.
- Oracle Cloud Native Services make it faster and easier to deploy, monitor, and scale your applications
- Oracle Cloud Native Services are enterprise-grade, leveraging Oracle Cloud for highly available, secure, and performant infrastructure
- Oracle Cloud Native Services are built on unmodified open source software, allowing you to use interoperable technologies on premises or in the cloud
- Oracle Cloud Native Services are complete, spanning across containers, build pipelines, infrastructure as code, serverless/functions, monitoring/alarming, notifications, events, streaming, and more
Oracle Cloud Native Services
Container Engine for Kubernetes
General Availability
This developer-friendly and enterprise-ready managed service runs highly available Kubernetes clusters with the control, security, and performance of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, while keeping pace and compatibility with the CNCF ecosystem.
Registry
General Availability
A highly available container registry service that enables users to store and share their container images with ease. Registry allows users to push and pull images with the Docker CLI or pull images directly into their Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes deployments.
Oracle Functions
Limited Availability
Scalable, multitenant serverless functions let users focus on writing code to meet business needs without having to know about any infrastructure concepts. Users only need to pay for the compute time used and pay nothing when the code is not running.
Streaming
Limited Availability
This highly available, scalable, and multitenant streaming platform makes it easy to collect and manage streaming data. Streaming enables applications such as IoT, security, and supply chain, where large amounts of data are collected from many sources and need to be processed in real-time.
Resource Manager
Limited Availability
This managed service can provision all Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources and services. Resource Manager reduces configuration errors and increases productivity by managing infrastructure declaratively (that is, infrastructure as code) using industry standard Terraform.
Monitoring
Limited Availability
This integrated service reports metrics from all resources and services in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Use predefined metrics and dashboards or use the service API to obtain a holistic view of the health, performance, and capacity of the system. The monitoring service includes alarms to track these metrics and take action when they vary or exceed defined thresholds. Alarms provide a critical service to help users meet service-level objectives and avoid interruptions.
Notifications
Limited Availability
This scalable service broadcasts messages to distributed components such as email and PagerDuty. With Notifications, users can easily deliver messages about Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to large numbers of subscribers through a publish-subscribe pattern.
Events
Coming Soon
This offering enables users to react to changes in the state of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources, both when initiated by the system or by user action. Events can store information to object storage, or they can trigger Oracle functions to take actions, Notifications to inform users, or Streaming to update external services.
