Screencast: pushing a Java EE app to Oracle Cloud

Here is a screen cast to show case how you can easily push a Java EE application to Oracle Application Container Cloud from your command line

 

Overview

• start with a Java EE 7 Maven archetype — mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=com.airhacks:javaee7-essentials-archetype
• modify the code — add a simple JAX-RS resource and build the project with mvn clean install
• add (tiny bit of) metadata (deployment.json)

{
“instances”:1,
“memory”:”1G”
}

• install and configure PSM (matter of few minutes!)
• and push to cloud — psm accs push -n demoapp -r javaee -s hourly -d deployment.json -p target/sample.war
• test — curl -x GET https://demoapp-<domain>.apaas.us2.oraclecloud.com/rest/

Further reading

• Oracle Application Container Cloud documentation and (lots of!) tutorials
