Deploying Oracle Database with IBM Terraform & Service Automation on Red Hat Openshift Container Platform and IBM PowerVC

White Papers


Abstract

This paper builds on the Proof of Technology described in “Deploying Oracle® Database as a Service with IBM Cloud PowerVC Manager 1.3.1” where we demonstrate how IBM Cloud PowerVC Manager (PowerVC) technology enables the implementation of Database-as-A-Service (DBaaS) for an Oracle® database.
In the first section of this paper, we demonstrate how to use IBM Terraform & Service Automation, instead of PowerVC, to provide the control point and user interface for DBaaS for an Oracle database. Here we reuse the existing PowerVC image developed in the earlier project. We then expand the scope and illustrate the workload orchestration capabilities of IBM Terraform & Service Automation by creating a deployable service. This service co-deploys two virtual machines (VMs) - a database server and an application server. The result of that orchestrated deployment is a populated and active Oracle database and a workload driver in the second VM ready for the user to connect to and drive simulated transactions against the database.
