Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)

Cloudaware ingests configuration and inventory from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) tenancies using API keys associated with an OCI user.

info
  • Audience: Cloudaware administrators, cloud engineers, security teams, and FinOps users
  • Outcome: OCI tenancies and compartments are connected to Cloudaware for inventory, configuration, and optional billing data collection

Use this section to prepare OCI, grant least‑privilege access, connect tenancies, validate ingestion, and configure billing discovery.

What the OCI Integration Provides​

  • Unified CMDB objects for OCI tenancies, regions, compartments, compute instances, block volumes, virtual cloud networks (VCNs), subnets, security lists, and related networking.
  • OCI IAM objects such as users, groups, policies, and API keys used across modules (CMDB, Compliance Engine v2, etc.).
  • Visibility into Oracle Database Cloud (Autonomous Database, DB systems), IAAS constructs, and tenancy region subscriptions where supported.
  • Cross‑cloud reporting and policies that correlate OCI data with AWS, Azure, GCP, and other providers.

Integration Workflow​

Work through the guides in this section in the following order:

  1. Prerequisites — What you need in Cloudaware and OCI before starting.
  2. Least-Privilege Policies — Recommended IAM user, groups, and policies for read‑only discovery.
  3. Setup — Step‑by‑step configuration of key pairs, OCI user API keys, and Cloudaware tenancies.
  4. Verification — How to confirm that data is flowing and tenancies are healthy.
  5. Troubleshooting — Common issues, diagnostics, and resolution steps.

Follow-up Integrations​

  • Oracle Billing — Cost and usage data ingestion for Oracle Cloud Cost Management. Configure the Oracle Cloud integration first, then add Oracle Billing if you need cost analytics and reporting.

Supported Environments​
