Oracle Cloud Guides/Getting Started needed in documentation. #8547

Open Valien opened 2 years ago

Valien commented 2 years ago

Details

We are starting to hear of more customers using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. In some cases, this is their only option (overseas for example and in certain countries).

Currently, we have no guides for OCI in our documentation anywhere so it would be nice to have some Getting Started guides for users trying to self-host on Oracle Cloud.

Related issue for HA -- #5093

Binsabbar commented 2 years ago

I am currently setting up Teleport in OCI and to be honest there is nothing special that requires documentation yet, at least for SSH Access. My current struggle is using Object Storage S3 Compatible API. It is not working and I am debugging.

I have not yet reached K8s Access, however, I will share more info if I find something that requires documentation. I found following Linux Installation useful while I was getting started.

I will share my experience in a blog post as well as an Ansible-playbook that I created for OCI setup.

@Valien What issues do customers tend to struggle with when setting up Teleport on Oracle Cloud?

Valien commented 1 year ago

Hi @ptgott ! I think the lack of anything OCI related on our site throws them off. Even though Teleport should work with no issue (I've not tried it yet) customers that I have spoken with tend to just slog through it and get it working based on AWS compatibility or comparisons.

So even if we had some potential light-weight getting started notes or architecture recommendations (What backends does OCI have and S3 compatible storage?) might be helpful (both from an SEO perspective and implementation).

We have been using Teleport in oci for almost a year now. I will be honest, the only thing I would say needed is docs about oci and S3 API compatibility.

So far we haven't noticed or seen issues, and we run in HA mode as well.

Maybe you could add something about auto join using OCI IAM dynamic groups. I could assist with anything if required here related to oci.

@Binsabbar Great to know that. How did you solve the struggle with Object Storage S3 compatible API? Could you please let me know which database did you choose for Teleport in OCI? Does Teleport support Oracle NoSQL Cloud Service - Key Value store database?

@Binsabbar, any insights about what you did for your OCI deployment? The dynamic-group joining would be immensely helpful information along with the OCI S3 compatibility.
