About this course
This course develops practical capability in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Its course-specific content covers OCI resource structure, Network foundations, Compute administration, Storage and databases, followed by an applied project focused on build an oci network and compute lab. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Basic computer literacy and a foundational understanding of cloud computing. Prior experience with the named product helps with the practical exercises.
Build an OCI network and compute lab
Deliver build an oci network and compute lab. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
