This is the second post in a series dedicated to showing how to use the OCI CLI to manage MySQL HeatWave resources. In this post we will discuss how to list MySQL HeatWaves instances in a compartment and how to update some of the information pertaining to the instance.

In a previous series, we discussed how we can leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to manage MySQL HeatWave instances. This new series demonstrates how to use the OCI CLI to complete similar tasks. In this post, we will show how to create a MySQL HeatWave instance and retrieve reference information that can help create this new instance.

This post is the last in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to programmatically retrieve reference data that may be needed to manage MySQL HeatWave instances using the SDK.

This post is the sixth in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to programmatically update data of a backup of a MySQL HeatWave instance.

This post is the fifth in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to programmatically create a backup of a MySQL HeatWave instance and create a ‘waiter’ to indicate when the backup is complete.

This post is the fourth in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to retrieve a list of MySQL HeatWave backups for a given compartment and how to narrow that list down to show only backups for a specific instance.

This post is the third in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to use waiters to asynchronously handle when MySQL HeatWave instance reaches a given lifecycle state.

This post is the second in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to retrieve information about a single MySQL HeatWave instance and how we can start and stop the instance programmatically.

This post is the first in a series that will demonstrate how to view and manage MySQL HeatWave instances in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Oracle offers several SDKs that can be used to view and manage resources in OCI. In this post, we will discuss how to leverage the TypeScript/JavaScript SDK to retrieve a list of MySQL HeatWave instances for a given compartment.

Over the years, I have become obsessed with writing code tests. One big pain point with writing tests is testing code that interacts with a database. In this post, we will talk about some of the difficulties encountered when writing tests for database interaction and how we can use Testcontainers to mitigate those issues.
