Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services have the PCI DSS Attestation of Compliance. The services covered are Compute, Networking, Load Balancing, Block Volumes, Object Storage, Archive Storage, File Storage, Data Transfer Service, Database, Exadata, Container Engine for Kubernetes, Container Registry, FastConnect, and Governance. In this blog post, we discuss the guidelines that help Oracle Cloud Infrastructure customers achieve PCI compliance for workloads running on Oracle IaaS. Background Our guidelines for achieving PCI compliance fall on the shared-responsibility spectrum of the cloud security continuum. The following diagram describes the separation between

This blog post specifically explores how to use Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) for resiliency and high availability for IP-based applications (not DNS-enabled) hosted in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure diverse regions. The scope is limited to IPv4 addresses, but the solution presented also works for IPv6 services with some additional configuration. Most of these applications fall in the IoT application domain.  Because of the implementation of ubiquitous connectivity for the Internet of Things (IoT), devices like sensors and gateways communicate back to central processors hosted in cloud data centers. I have used this solution as a way to achieve resiliency be
