Oracle Autonomous Database and DevOps: A Simple Approach to Utilization - Part 5

This article is the fifth and final part of the Oracle Autonomous Database and DevOps article series. For a better understanding, I recommend to read the articles “Oracle Autonomous Database and DevOps: A Simple Approach to Use – Part 1”, “Part 2”, “Part 3” and “Part 4” before proceeding with the steps in this article.

 

As the previous article dealt with the creation of the Linux application server within Oracle Cloud, in this article we will proceed with the creation of microservices using Docker and connecting a JAVA application to the cloud database. To start let’s get some concepts:

 

 

What are microservices?

 

According to Chris Richardson, “is a style of architecture that structures an application as a collection of services that are:

 

  • Highly sustainable and testable
  • Frankly coupled
  • Independently deployable
  • Organized around business resources. ”
 
What is node.js?

 

According to the manufacturer’s official website, “Node.js is an open source, cross-platform JavaScript execution environment.”

 

PS: This article will not show the coding of the application, but only the loading of it.

 

Now that we have a brief description of micricroservices and node.js, let’s proceed with the creation of our microservices:
 
 
Creating node.js microservices: Make sure Docker is running on your machine (For more information on Docker see the first article of this series):

At this moment you can pull your app image at https://github.com  as in the example below:







[root@oc8226237722 /]# git clone https://github.com/brunors/appte.git  ((link will not be available after  this article is published))




Cloning into 'appte'...

Receiving objects: 100% (1045/1045), 3.49 MiB | 1.95 MiB/s, done.

Resolving deltas: 100% (173/173), done.




Open the port on your computer for the application to start. As we chose in the previous article will be port 3055:




[root@techdatabasketblog /]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --permanent --add-port=3055/tcp

success

 

 

Install Oracle Client on your computer, you can find it on the OTN website and download it:

 

 

Copy the wallet used in previous articles to create the secure connection to a directory that will be used for the container image:
 
[root@techdatabasketblog wallet_APPtechdatabasket]# unzip /tmp/wallet/Wallet_techdatabasket.zip -d /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/

Archive:  /tmp/wallet/Wallet_techdatabasket.zip

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/cwallet.sso 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/tnsnames.ora 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/truststore.jks 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/ojdbc.properties 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/sqlnet.ora 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/ewallet.p12 

  inflating: /wallet_APPtechdatabasket/keystore.jks 

[root@techdatabasketblog wallet_APPtechdatabasket]#


Change the sqlnet.ora values ​​to:

 

WALLET_LOCATION = (SOURCE = (METHOD = file) (METHOD_DATA =

(DIRECTORY=$TNS_ADMIN)))

 

Be in the directory containing the wallet, the Oracle Client and start Docker with the image name (in this article  is appte):

 

$ docker build -t appte   .




Check the image:

 

[root@techdatabasketblog]# docker images -a

appte                                           latest              65463ysdbe26       3 weeks ago         171 MB

 

 

Start the image on port 3055 as we chose:

 

docker run -i -p 3055:3055 -t appte  sh

/ #

 

Change your user credentials, password and connection string in the application.

 

Run the server.js script:

 

node server.js &

 

The results will be something like this:

 

appte listening on port 3055




You can see your application in a web browser as http://{SEUIP}:3055

 

 

Now that we have created the  microservices, let’s make a connection of a JAVA application to the ATP:

 

Connect to the provisioned server and as root install java:

 

[root@techdatabasketblog ATPDocker]# ssh [email protected]

Enter passphrase for key '/root/.ssh/id_rsa':

Please login as the user "opc" rather than the user "root".




Connection to 129.146.128.2 closed.

This finished  the series of articles on the simple approach of Oracle Autonomous Database and DevOps. The idea for this series of articles came from my participation in Oracle Code Rome 2019 in Italy, where I got a lot of knowledge that made me explore this DevOps field further with the ATP database and as mentioned in the first article we started with the Docker setup and later in the following articles on Oracle Cloud database and server provisioning on Oracle Cloud and we end with a brief representation of microservices and java with the ATP database. However, there are a number of features that can still be explored within Oracle Cloud, so create your account and explore the Oracle Cloud world.
