Automate, secure, and optimize your cloud infrastructure with proven best practices and expert insights.

Securing every stage of development and deployment is no longer a choiceit is a necessity. Adopting a proactive DevSecOps approach is crucial to safeguarding cloud applications and infrastructures. OCI experts Benner, Aboulnaga, and Patel provide comprehensive guidance on leveraging DevSecOps principles to effectively secure and automate cloud environments.

Developers, DevOps professionals, and cloud architects will learn best practices for automating security processes and optimizing enterprise infrastructures with powerful tools such as Terraform and Ansible. This comprehensive guide provides actionable strategies for building secure, scalable, and resilient cloud applications.

DevSecOps enables individuals and organizations to integrate security seamlessly into the development and deployment processes. Given the increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber threats, it is essential to learn DevSecOps to ensure that security is a proactive and ongoing consideration throughout all stages of software development, rather than merely an afterthought. By adopting DevSecOps principles, developers, operations teams, and security professionals can collaborate more effectively to identify vulnerabilities early, mitigate risks, and maintain compliance with regulatory standards. Additionally, this approach enhances the ability to respond quickly to security incidents, minimizing potential damage and reducing the costs associated with late-stage security fixes.

As companies adopt faster development cycles and more complex systems, understanding DevSecOps becomes crucial for creating secure, scalable, and resilient applications that meet the demands of modern, high-speed environments. Implementing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) can present several challenges due to its complexity and the wide range of services it offers. The variety of tools and services—including compute, networking, storage, security, and database options—requires a deep understanding of cloud concepts and their integration within the OCI ecosystem. Some architects may assume that OCI is solely focused on Oracle Database, but it actually provides many technologies unrelated to Oracle’s Database.

If you want to gain mastery over the different aspects of OCI, hands-on experience is essential. However, gaining this experience can be challenging for learners who may not have access to real-world environments or dedicated training resources. Additionally, staying informed about best practices and optimizing costs within OCI complicates the learning process because it requires a balance between functionality, security, and cost-effectiveness.

This book aims to provide both newcomers to cloud computing and those with experience on other cloud platforms with a comprehensive overview of the core services that OCI offers, along with guidance on effectively utilizing them within a DevSecOps model.

You will learn:

Step-by-step examples of using Terraform and Ansible in OCI to automate and manage cloud infrastructure
DevSecOps principles and best practices for Oracle Cloud environments
Key OCI services and how they can be applied within a DevSecOps framework to ensure security and efficiency
Practical strategies for building secure, scalable, and resilient applications in Oracle Cloud
How to integrate DevSecOps principles throughout the development and deployment lifecycle
Techniques for maintaining regulatory compliance while ensuring security in Oracle Cloud
How to optimize cloud costs in OCI without compromising security or performance
Practical steps to securely deploy applications in Oracle Cloud

Unlock the full potential of Oracle Cloud and DevSecOps and ensure that your organization stays ahead of evolving security threats and operational demands. This guide provides the hands-on tools, expert insights, and proven strategies you need to secure, automate, and scale your Oracle Cloud applications.

Who Should Read This Book?
This book is intended for developers, DevOps professionals, architects, or anyone interested in understanding the various features of OCI. No prior knowledge of OCI is assumed, although familiarity with general cloud services can be beneficial.
