Today I did have the opportunity to give a presentation on Oracle Database in Docker at the SOUG day in Olten. It was a great opportunity to discuss how Oracle database engineering can be simplified using Docker.
Besides the demo the following topics were discussed:
- Docker images, container and volumes
- Requirements to setup Oracle database image
- Build an Oracle database image
- Discuss the Dockerfile and build scripts
- Create database containers
- Use cases for Oracle database in Docker
- Demo setup Oracle database with Enterprise User Security and Oracle Unified Directory
Combining docker-compose and custom initialisation scripts allow a various number of use cases for Oracle database in Docker. Rapid deployment of Oracle databases for engineering and testing. But is it also suitable for production environments?
