Set Up Resource Analytics

Before you can use Resource Analytics, you must review the required prerequisites, and then prepare both the tenancy where you want to provision it and any other tenancies whose resources you plan to monitor.

Required Prerequisites

Before starting to set up Resource Analytics, confirm that your tenancy:

  • Has enough quota for one extra Oracle Autonomous AI Database (ADW).
  • Has subscriptions to all the regions your instance will monitor.

    See Managing Regions.

To use OAC for visualizations, your tenancy must:
  • Be enabled for identity domains.
  • Have an identity domain whose home is the same region as the Resource Analytics instance you're creating.
  • Have enough quota for one more OAC instance.

Required Setup

You must complete these steps to provision the tenancy for Resource Analytics:

  1. First, use a compartment that's not your tenancy's root compartment.

    See Select or Create a Compartment.

  2. Create a VCN with a private subnet with DNS enabled, plus security list rules letting ingress and egress on two ports.

    See Set Up Networking.

  3. Create policies to let administrative users manage Resource Analytics and to allow the service to access your resource metadata.

    See Create Groups, Dynamic Groups, and Policies and Create Policies for Remote Monitored Tenancies.

  4. Review some important aspects of using Autonomous AI Database with Resource Analytics.

    See Oracle Autonomous AI Database Considerations.

  5. (Optional) Enable Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC).

    See Oracle Analytics Cloud Considerations.
