Oracle Integration Cloud comes with a library of adapters for both Oracle and 3rd Party applications. All of these capabilities mean that it’s possible to integrate applications faster and increase business agility. In this post I will look at how you can use Oracle Integration Cloud’s capabilities to connect to UiPath across in Oracle Integration generation 2. (future post coming for this same subject area on Oracle Integration Generation 3).

How to Use Your Own Encryption Key for Data Encryption in Oracle Cloud
In this post, I will focus on securing object storage data with your own encryption key, but note that this content is still very relevant for other OCI services such as block, object or file services or Oracle's platform solutions such as databases, analytics, etc. By default, OCI/Oracle automatically manages the keys that are used to encrypt and secure your data on the OCI platform.. this makes things a little simpler - you know your data is secure, so you don't need to worry about it. However, there may be requirements to use customer-managed encryption keys. We will explore how in the post.

Accessing an Object Storage Bucket in Oracle Cloud using Pre-Authenticated Requests
In my previous post, Creating an Object Storage Bucket in Oracle Cloud, I introduced Object Storage in Oracle Cloud and I outlined how you can very easily create an object storage bucket. In Oracle Cloud, object storage is used to store and manage data as objects, providing a reliable, secure and scalable service. OCI Object storage uses “buckets” as a method of organizing the objects (or files). Ultimately, you can think of a bucket as a container that stores –ideally related– objects within an Oracle Cloud compartment within a namespace. A bucket can only be associated to a single compartment and it’s possible to set policies against the compartment & bucket which define the actions/permissions that a user or group have to manipulate the bucket and the objects in the bucket. There are many use cases in which you might want or need to access an Oracle object storage bucket, in this post, I will explain how you can access objects within your bucket using a pre-authenticated request. Look out for a future post on accessing object storage buckets with granted user permissions.

In this post, I will explain how you can very easily create a KeyVault in Oracle Cloud.
Creating a Compartment in Oracle Cloud
In Oracle Cloud, compartments are used to implement a degree of organization to your provisioned resources. They can also help you to more easily control access to your nicely organized resources. Assuming you are organizing things well, Compartments should be a collection provisioned resources that are related to one another and might typically be accessed/controlled by the same kind of user. In doing so permissions can be given to specific user groups to access and manage a compartment by an administrator. In this post, I will explain how you can very easily create a compartment in Oracle Cloud.
