Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Ansible Collection provides an easy way to provision and manage resources in Oracle Cloud using Ansible.
This collection replaces the legacy modules. Refer to the Migration Guide for best migration practices.
Ansible released Collections as part of the Ansible 2.9 release. Ansible recommends Collections as the recommended method of packaging and releasing modules. With the creation of Oracle Cloud Ansible Collection, we are providing two user benefits:
- Faster Availability - Oracle Cloud Ansible Modules will now be available to users at a faster pace on Ansible Galaxy.
- Wider Coverage - Support for the majority of the Oracle Cloud services.
We have also added a new User Guide to highlight new features and best practices for using the new modules.
We recommend migrating from the legacy modules since they will be deprecated in the near future. Please expect a few breaking changes while migrating from legacy modules to the new collection modules. We recommend you to refer to the Migration Guide for breaking changes. Also, the new modules are renamed to use the service name as a prefix.
We support almost all the of OCI Cloud services with very few exceptions. For the complete list of supported services, please check the modules list.
