IHAC interested in ORDS on containers: is it supported?

Open edburns opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

I have a customer keenly interested in running ORDS+APEX on Azure. They intend to use it on Azure Kubernetes Service, but need a fully supported solution for ORDS. The ORDS image in OCR:

docker pull container-registry.oracle.com/database/ords:latest

has this note:

NOTE: This image is for testing purposes only, as such it is unsupported and should not to be used in a production environment.

Is there a supported version of this image?

Please file an Oracle Support Request for this. The current images in OCR are not supported for production.

Yunus is right, however try it out. If you come across problems or enhancements needed, let me know and we'll cycle it for you. We cycle it at least every three months B

Note that the Dockerfile from this repo won't run with recent versions of ORDS (see #2566)...

Having said that I do have a development stack with APEX 23.1 / ORDS 23.1 and Database 23c in containers and that works really well...

Is it possible for you to share it?

I haven't sent a PR because I would have expected that the Database folks would update it 😉

The main issue is that the syntax for the install and run commands have changed, and I don't know in which version that change happened should we want to keep backwards compatibility...

Also ORDS is now available as a package in Oracle Linux, so it is easier to setup

Pinging @gvenzl to see if there are plans to update the Dockerfile / runOrds files any time soon...

Oh, I need to look at that. We upgraded the installer to add more features to it. We've been keeping the container registry up to date. I'll have someone look at that this week.
