This skill provides a comprehensive guide to setting up robust CI/CD pipelines for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). It leverages GitHub Actions and Terraform to automate the deployment, planning, and testing of OCI resources. Instructions cover secure API key authentication, best practices for managing Terraform state, and crucial workarounds for known OCI provider bugs, ensuring stable and reliable cloud deployments.

This comprehensive guide helps users diagnose and resolve common Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) API errors. It covers critical issues like authentication failures (401), authorization errors (404), SSL certificate problems, and rate limiting (429). The resource provides runnable Python and Bash scripts to pinpoint the exact root cause and implement the necessary fixes, significantly streamlining cloud debugging processes.

This skill provides comprehensive functionality for provisioning, managing, and scaling Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instances using the Python SDK. It addresses common challenges like "out of host capacity" errors by implementing robust retry logic across multiple Availability Domains (ADs). Users can select optimal Flex shapes (AMD, ARM, Intel), manage the entire instance lifecycle (start, stop, reboot, terminate), and retrieve network details, ensuring reliable cloud workload deployment.

This skill provides a comprehensive Python guide to building a production-ready Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). It details the entire process from scratch, including creating the VCN, setting up Internet and NAT Gateways, configuring route tables, and defining Network Security Groups (NSGs). This is essential for engineers needing to provision complex, secure, and highly functional network architectures for development or production use.

This skill uses the OCI Usage API and SDK to programmatically track spending across compartments, services, and shapes. It allows users to query granular cost data, set detailed budget alerts (e.g., 80%, 95%, forecast), and identify cost optimization opportunities like utilizing Always Free tiers or preemptible instances, ensuring proactive and precise cloud cost management.

This skill provides comprehensive Python patterns for managing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage. It covers best practices for creating buckets, handling both simple and large multipart uploads, safely generating and revoking Pre-Authenticated Requests (PARs), and configuring lifecycle policies to ensure data integrity and proper object management within OCI.

Collects comprehensive diagnostics from an unresponsive Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instance. This tool gathers critical data—including serial console logs, cloud-init logs, VCN flow logs, and CPU metrics—into a single, self-contained tar archive. Use this when an instance is failing, stuck in provisioning, or showing underlying infrastructure errors, providing support teams with all necessary information for root-cause analysis.

This skill provides a comprehensive solution for deploying containerized applications to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). It supports two primary deployment paths: OKE (Oracle Kubernetes Engine) for full Kubernetes orchestration, and Container Instances for a simpler, serverless alternative. Use this skill for automating the entire lifecycle, including pushing images to OCIR, provisioning OKE clusters via Python SDK, and executing Kubernetes deployments using kubectl.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide and code examples for designing robust and scalable Identity and Access Management (IAM) structures within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). It covers establishing secure compartment hierarchies, understanding complex policy inheritance rules, implementing least-privilege access controls, and utilizing dynamic groups for service authentication, ensuring best practices for enterprise cloud governance.

A comprehensive guide to launching, listing, and managing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instances using Python. This guide specifically addresses the common 'Out of host capacity' error when using Always Free ARM shapes, implementing a robust retry loop to ensure successful deployment. Users can learn the full lifecycle management, from initial connection setup to instance state polling.

This comprehensive runbook provides a self-service solution for managing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) outages when official status pages are misleading or silent. It guides users through independent service health probes (Identity, Compute, Networking), automated instance recovery actions (reboot, softreset), and critical procedures for cross-Availability Domain (AD) or cross-region failover using boot volume backups to ensure business continuity.

This guide provides comprehensive, step-by-step instructions to install and configure the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) SDK and Command Line Interface (CLI). It details the secure process of generating RSA key pairs, setting up the mandatory local configuration file, and verifying API connectivity. Use this when integrating OCI services into applications, setting up new cloud environments, or troubleshooting authentication errors.
