Overview

This module allows you to configure and manage Oracle Cloud Infrastructure components with puppet. Why would I like to use Puppet to manage Oracle Cloud Infrastructure? Isn't Terraform the solution for this?

Terraform is a great tool, and if you are using that, that is fine. There are, however, some reasons Puppet might fit better for you.

  • Your organization is already using Puppet and not terraform. Introducing a new tool into your organization might be more then you want or need. In these cases, Puppet, in combination with this module, is a great help.
  • You want to use existing hiera data to configure parts of your OCI infrastructure. In this case, using this module is great. It integrates with all of the existing hieradata, just like your other Puppet code.
  • You need tighter integration between OCI configuration in general and the configuration management on your systems. Again, this module is for you. It is regular Puppet so you can use all of the rich puppet features like exported resources to integrate all of your configuration settings both ion the cloud level as well as on the machines.

This module is is part of our family of Puppet modules for Oracle products. Besides the oci_config module, this family also contains:

  • ora_install For installing an Oracle database and other database related Oracle products
  • ora_config For configuring every aspect of your Oracle database
  • ora_cis To secure your databases according to the CIS benchmarks.
  • ora_profile The ora_profile module allows an easy path from first simple installation to a fully customized Enterprise setup.
  • ovm_config To create and manage the infrastructure componentns in Oracle VM.
