The Oracle Data Transfer service is a offline data transfer method to migrate data to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. A transfer service is useful, when your network bandwidth and connection is not sufficient to upload your migration data in a meaningful time.

Read MoreOracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic Object Storage – Cleanup Day with FTM CLI
Yesterday I decided to cleanup old Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic objects. There were a lot of files lying around in the Object Storage of a project from 2018. Cleaning up these files in the OCI console was no option, they can only be deleted one by one. And with over 1500 files, a bad idea. During the search for an option for Object Storage mass deletion, I found this tool: ftmcli – Object Storage Classic File Transfer Manager. The MOS…

Read MoreThe Grafana Plugins for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring are back!
In September 2019 I wrote a blog post how to monitor an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Autonomous database with Grafana plugin oci-datasource. But some weeks after publication, the plugin was not available on the Grafana page anymore. And only Oracle and Grafana had a clue why. Now everything will be fine now. Since the 6th of October, there are two new Grafana plugins available for download. They both don’t require a Grafana enterprise account. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Metrics Data Source Oracle…
