Discover Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Quick Start
Recently we announced the launch of the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Quick Start program. With the launch, we have already simplified deployments for Cloudera, Hortonworks, Couchbase, H2O.ai, Tableau, and many more solutions, which you can find at the end of this article.
A Quick Start enables anyone to deploy complex software stacks from our partners and the community on Oracle Generation 2 Cloud Infrastructure. It automatically deploys compute, storage and networking and automates installation. These examples are intended to get users going quickly on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. They can be customized to form the basis of more complex deployments.
The 22 initial Quick Start examples are available on GitHub. They are a collection of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) examples, specifically Terraform, and walkthroughs that allow our customers to get started using partner products on both Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oracle Kubernetes Engine (our Kubernetes managed service) easily.
On other clouds, the Quick Start program is distinct from the marketplace. At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Quick Start is seen as an incubator. The plan is to recruit ISVs and partner with them to build Terraform integrations that deploy their products on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. With that work in place, we plan to use that same Terraform as the basis for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Marketplace offers. That makes it easier for customers to adopt partner solutions on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. At the same time, it simplifies maintenance, meaning ISVs spend less effort maintaining IaC, resulting in a higher quality experience for end users.
