Functions in OCI
tags :
OCI Serverless service #
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Functions is a Fully Managed, multi-tenant, highly scalable, on-demand, Functions-as-a-Service platform.
- It is built on enterprise-grade Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and powered by the Fn Project Open Source engine.
- Use OCI Functions (sometimes abbreviated to just Functions, and formerly known as Oracle Functions) when you want to focus on writing code to meet business needs.
Details #
The serverless and elastic architecture of OCI Functions means there’s no infrastructure administration or software administration for you to perform.
- You don’t provision or maintain compute instances, and operating system software patches and upgrades are applied automatically.
- OCI Functions simply ensures your app is highly-available, scalable, secure, and monitored.
- With OCI Functions, you can write code in Java, Python, Node, Go, Ruby, and C# (and for advanced use cases, bring your own Dockerfile, and Graal VM). You can then deploy your code, call it directly or trigger it in response to events, and get billed only for the resources consumed during the execution.
OCI Functions is based on Fn Project Fn Project. Fn Project is an open source, container native, serverless platform that can be run anywhere - any cloud or on-premises. Fn Project is easy to use, extensible, and performant. You can download and install the open source distribution of Fn Project, develop and test a function locally, and then use the same tooling to deploy that function to OCI Functions.
You can access OCI Functions using the Console, a CLI, and a REST API. You can invoke the functions you deploy to OCI Functions using the CLI or by making signed HTTP requests.
The API Gateway service is integrated with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity and Access Management (IAM), which provides easy authentication with native Oracle Cloud Infrastructure identity functionality.
