Introducing Oracle Cloud Developer Certification and Free Training Resources from Oracle University

I’m excited to announce a new Developer Associate certification for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure that’s available immediately. This developer-centric certification is meant for all application developers who are interested in learning more about using Oracle Cloud to build modern enterprise applications. With this addition, we now offer five distinct certifications for architects, operators, and developers on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Go to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Training and Certification page to learn about the certifications.

Certification Details

The Developer Associate certification is intended for developers who have six months of experience in developing and maintaining applications. Developers need to have a solid understanding of cloud native fundamentals and in-depth knowledge of at least one programming language. They should demonstrate knowledge of developing, securing, testing, and operating applications in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and the ability to use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure service APIs, CLI, and SDKs to write applications. Practical knowledge of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure architecture, use cases, and best practices is recommended.
The certification exam is 105 minutes long, contains 60 questions, and is currently available in English only.
  • You can review the topics and schedule an exam at Pearson VUE.
  • To help you prepare for the certification, we’ve made the full coursework and study guides available free of charge (see the following section for details).

Strong Developer Momentum with Oracle Cloud

Oracle is committed to supporting enterprise application developers as they transition IT functions to the cloud. We’ve built a comprehensive suite of offerings tailored to supporting application developers in their efforts to modernize workloads, without sacrificing security, compliance, or reliability. We offer a deep portfolio of services that gives developers the tools that they need to innovate while maintaining portability and the ability to use existing tools and environments.
  • We offer a managed Kubernetes service, Container Engine for Kubernetes, plus a container Registry, where we only charge for resources consumed.
  • Our serverless offering, Oracle Functions, is based on the open source Fn Project, a container native, serverless platform that can be run anywhere, including other clouds and on-premises.
  • In the area of infrastructure automation, our Resource Manager managed service helps you install, configure, and manage resources through the Hashicorp Terraform infrastructure-as-code model.
  • We also offer managed services for your API endpoints (API Gateway), pub sub (Streaming with Apache Kafka compatibility), Notifications, Monitoring, unified serverless database (Oracle Autonomous Database), NoSQL database, and many other services.
Booster Fuels is a great example of an early adopter that has used our services to develop and run a 100% cloud native stack on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Watch how they are using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to reinvent energy delivery.

  Single page scrollable websites are everywhere. In this website design pattern, all the content is presented in one long-scrolling layout that contains multiple sections. Visitors can scroll or jump to a section by clicking buttons of a sticky menu. This pattern is a good fit for small content such as brochure websites, software library documentation, portfolios, and landing pages that are used to convert users [ 1 ]. Designers also love this pattern because it is simple, clean, and enables cool scroll animations. Jetbrains Mono single-page scrollable website Hive docs multi-page scrollable website In this series of articles, we will explore how to build a  single-page scrollable website  using Flutter. We will benefit from the Navigator 2.0 API to provide a good navigation experience to the users. You can find the source code of this series’ sample apps on my  Github page .

Better File Storage in Oracle Cloud

Use Oracle Application Express with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure REST APIs to upload, download, and manage big files in Oracle Cloud. By Adrian Png November 27, 2019 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure  provides a comprehensive suite of REST APIs for accessing and managing cloud resources. For example, administrators can use REST APIs to create and manage autonomous databases and initiate backups. Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX)  makes working with REST easy. The  APEX_WEB_SERVICE  package, available since Oracle APEX 4.0, provides developers with a function for consuming REST APIs. Oracle APEX 5.0 introduced the  APEX_JSON  package, allowing easy parsing of JSON responses. Oracle APEX 18.1 introduced the Web Source Module (WSM), which enables developers to access REST services and use the data in APEX components such as reports, interactive reports, and interactive grids. These features, when used together with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure REST APIs, enable APEX developers
