Shared Disk Seen by Pods Deployed in two Independent OKE Clusters across two Cloud Regions | Remote Network Peering


In this episode we are creating 2 independent OKE clusters, one in Frankfurt and the other in Phoenix, and then we will create a File System in Frankfurt (kind of NFS server) that will act as repository for a shared persistent volume reachable by all the pods of a deployment deployed to both clusters. Remote … Continue reading Shared Disk Seen by Pods Deployed in two Independent OKE Clusters across two Cloud Regions | Remote Network Peering →

Creating a Java Microservice with Helidon/Microservice Archetype Deployed in Kubernetes


With Helidon you can create Java microservices easily. In this blog, we are creating/exposing a REST service that gets a JSON document stored in an Oracle database and retrieves it to the requestor. For retrieving the JSON document from the database we are using ORDS and SODA but you can use JDBC as well, we'll show … Continue reading Creating a Java Microservice with Helidon/Microservice Archetype Deployed in Kubernetes →

Weblogic Kubernetes operator or how to run WebLogic​ clusters in k8s


There are lots of WebLogic clusters running around the globe every day. When you withdraw money in the ATM, buy lettuces in the supermarket or make a phone call there is a WebLogic server (and probably an Oracle database too) is executing some logic for you.
