Leveraging & Introduction to Oracle OCI for Oracle EPM suite components - Part 1

In this blog series i am going to talk about my fun project which is leveraging Oracle OCI to connect to Oracle EPM and invoke EPM components to perform multiple compute/analytical operation using the REST API.

Before that we see a brief introduction to Oracle OCI.

Introduction to Oracle OCI

Global Infrastructure:

 Example: An e-commerce company wants to expand its operations to the Asia Pacific region. Oracle OCI offers multiple data centers strategically located in countries like Singapore, Australia, and Japan. The company can choose to deploy its application in the Singapore data center to serve customers in that region. By doing so, they can take advantage of the low-latency network connectivity between the data center and the end-users, resulting in faster response times and an improved user experience.

Compute Services:

Example: A software development company is working on a project that requires high-performance computing capabilities. They can utilize OCI's compute services, such as the VM.Standard.E3 shape, which provides a high CPU-to-memory ratio. This instance shape is suitable for CPU-intensive workloads, such as scientific simulations, rendering, or machine learning. By leveraging this shape, the company can allocate more computing power to their application and achieve faster processing times.
