# Oracle Database Operator for Kubernetes

## Make Oracle Database Kubernetes Native

As part of Oracle's resolution to make Oracle Database Kubernetes native (that is, observable and operable by Kubernetes), Oracle released _Oracle Database Operator for Kubernetes_ (`OraOperator` or the operator). OraOperator extends the Kubernetes API with custom resources and controllers for automating Oracle Database lifecycle management.

In this v1.1.0 production release, `OraOperator` supports the following database configurations and infrastructure:

* Oracle Autonomous Database:
* Oracle Autonomous Database shared Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) (ADB-S)
* Oracle Autonomous Database on dedicated Cloud infrastructure (ADB-D)
* Oracle Autonomous Container Database (ACD) (infrastructure) is the infrastructure for provisioning Autonomous Databases.
* Containerized Single Instance databases (SIDB) deployed in the Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) and any k8s where OraOperator is deployed
* Containerized Oracle Globally Distributed Databases(GDD) deployed in OKE and any k8s where OraOperator is deployed
* Oracle Multitenant Databases (CDB/PDBs)
* Oracle Base Database Cloud Service (BDBCS)
* Oracle Data Guard (Preview status)
* Oracle Database Observability (Preview status)

Oracle will continue to extend `OraOperator` to support additional Oracle Database configurations.

## New in V1.1.0 Release
* Namespace scope deployment option
* Enhanced security with namespace scope deployment option
* Support for Oracle Database 23ai Free (with SIDB)
* Automatic Storage Expansion for SIDB and Oracle Globally Distributed Database
* User-Defined Sharding
* TCPS support customer provided certs
* Execute custom scripts during DB setup/startup
* Patching for SIDB Primary/Standby in Data Guard
* Long-term backup for Autonomous Databases (ADB): Support for [long-term retention backup](https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/paas/autonomous-database/serverless/adbsb/backup-long-term.html) and removed support for the deprecated mandatory backup
* Wallet expiry date for ADB: A user-friendly enhancement to display the wallet expiry date in the status of the associated ADB
* Wait-for-Completion option for ADB: Supports `kubectl wait` command that allows the user to wait for a specific condition on ADB
* OKE workload Identify: Supports OKE workload identity authentication method (i.e., uses OKE credentials). For more details, refer to [Oracle Autonomous Database (ADB) Prerequisites](docs/adb/ADB_PREREQUISITES.md#authorized-with-oke-workload-identity)
* Database Observability (Preview - Metrics)

## Features Summary

* Watch over a set of namespaces or all the namespaces in the cluster using the "WATCH_NAMESPACE" env variable of the operator deployment

The upcoming releases will support new configurations, operations, and capabilities.

## Release Status

This production release has been installed and tested on the following Kubernetes platforms:

* [Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE)](https://www.oracle.com/cloud-native/container-engine-kubernetes/) with Kubernetes 1.24
* [Oracle Linux Cloud Native Environment(OLCNE)](https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/olcne/) 1.6
* [Minikube](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/) with version v1.29.0
* [Azure Kubernetes Service](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/kubernetes-service/)
* [Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service](https://aws.amazon.com/eks/)
* [Red Hat OKD](https://www.okd.io/)
* [Red Hat OpenShift](https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/cloud-computing/openshift/)

## Prerequisites

Oracle strongly recommends that you ensure your system meets the following [Prerequisites](./PREREQUISITES.md).

* ### Install cert-manager

The operator uses webhooks for validating user input before persisting it in etcd. Webhooks require TLS certificates that are generated and managed by a certificate manager.

Install the certificate manager with the following command:

```sh
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.4/cert-manager.yaml
```

* ### Create Role Bindings for Access Management

OraOperator supports the following two modes of deployment:
##### 1. Cluster Scoped Deployment

This is the default mode, in which OraOperator is deployed to operate in a cluster, and to monitor all the namespaces in the cluster.

- Grant the `serviceaccount:oracle-database-operator-system:default` cluster wide access for the resources by applying [cluster-role-binding.yaml](./rbac/cluster-role-binding.yaml)

```sh
kubectl apply -f rbac/cluster-role-binding.yaml
```

- Next, apply the [oracle-database-operator.yaml](./oracle-database-operator.yaml) to deploy the Operator

```sh
kubectl apply -f oracle-database-operator.yaml
```

##### 2. Namespace Scoped Deployment

In this mode, OraOperator can be deployed to operate in a namespace, and to monitor one or many namespaces.

- Grant `serviceaccount:oracle-database-operator-system:default` service account with resource access in the required namespaces. For example, to monitor only the default namespace, apply the [default-ns-role-binding.yaml](./rbac/default-ns-role-binding.yaml)

```sh
kubectl apply -f rbac/default-ns-role-binding.yaml
```
To watch additional namespaces, create different role binding files for each namespace, using [default-ns-role-binding.yaml](./rbac/default-ns-role-binding.yaml) as a template, and changing the `metadata.name` and `metadata.namespace` fields

- Next, edit the [oracle-database-operator.yaml](./oracle-database-operator.yaml) to add the required namespaces under `WATCH_NAMESPACE`. Use comma-delimited values for multiple namespaces.

```sh
- name: WATCH_NAMESPACE
value: "default"
```
- Finally, apply the edited [oracle-database-operator.yaml](./oracle-database-operator.yaml) to deploy the Operator

```sh
kubectl apply -f oracle-database-operator.yaml
```

* ### ClusterRole and ClusterRoleBinding for NodePort services

To expose services on each node's IP and port (the NodePort) apply the [node-rbac.yaml](./rbac/node-rbac.yaml). Note that this step is not required for LoadBalancer services.

```sh
kubectl apply -f rbac/node-rbac.yaml
```
## Installation
### Install Oracle DB Operator

After you have completed the preceding prerequisite changes, you can install the operator. To install the operator in the cluster quickly, you can apply the modified `oracle-database-operator.yaml` file from the preceding step.

Run the following command

```sh
kubectl apply -f oracle-database-operator.yaml
```

Ensure that the operator pods are up and running. For high availability, Operator pod replicas are set to a default of 3. You can scale this setting up or down.

```sh
$ kubectl get pods -n oracle-database-operator-system

NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
pod/oracle-database-operator-controller-manager-78666fdddb-s4xcm 1/1 Running 0 11d
pod/oracle-database-operator-controller-manager-78666fdddb-5k6n4 1/1 Running 0 11d
pod/oracle-database-operator-controller-manager-78666fdddb-t6bzb 1/1 Running 0 11d

```

* Check the resources

You should see that the operator is up and running, along with the shipped controllers.

For more details, see [Oracle Database Operator Installation Instructions](./docs/installation/OPERATOR_INSTALLATION_README.md).
## Documentation
## Getting Started with the Operator (Quickstart)

The following quickstarts are designed for specific database configurations:

* [Oracle Autonomous Database](./docs/adb/README.md)
* [Oracle Autonomous Container Database](./docs/adb/ACD.md)
* [Containerized Oracle Single Instance Database and Data Guard](./docs/sidb/README.md)
* [Containerized Oracle Globally Distributed Database](./docs/sharding/README.md)
* [Oracle Multitenant Database](./docs/multitenant/README.md)
* [Oracle Base Database Cloud Service (BDBCS)](./docs/dbcs/README.md)

The following quickstart is designed for non-database configurations:
* [Oracle Database Observability](./docs/observability/README.md)

## Examples
YAML file templates are available under [`/config/samples`](./config/samples/). You can copy and edit these template files to configure them for your use cases.

## Uninstall the Operator

To uninstall the operator, the final step consists of deciding whether you want to delete the custom resource definitions (CRDs) and Kubernetes APIServices introduced into the cluster by the operator. Choose one of the following options:

* ### Delete the CRDs and APIServices

To delete all the CRD instances deployed to cluster by the operator, run the following commands, where is the namespace of the cluster object:

```sh
kubectl delete oraclerestdataservice.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete singleinstancedatabase.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete shardingdatabase.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete dbcssystem.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete autonomousdatabase.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete autonomousdatabasebackup.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete autonomousdatabaserestore.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete autonomouscontainerdatabase.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete cdb.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete pdb.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete dataguardbrokers.database.oracle.com --all -n
kubectl delete databaseobserver.observability.oracle.com --all -n
```

* ### Delete the RBACs

```sh
cat rbac/* | kubectl delete -f -
```

* ### Delete the Deployment

After all CRD instances are deleted, it is safe to remove the CRDs, APIServices and operator deployment. To remove these files, use the following command:

```sh
kubectl delete -f oracle-database-operator.yaml --ignore-not-found=true
```

Note: If the CRD instances are not deleted, and the operator is deleted by using the preceding command, then operator deployment and instance objects (pods, services, PVCs, and so on) are deleted. However, if that happens, then the CRD deletion stops responding. This is because the CRD instances have properties that prevent their deletion, and that can only be removed by the operator pod, which is deleted when the APIServices are deleted.

## Security

Please consult the [security guide](./SECURITY.md) for our responsible security vulnerability disclosure process

### Managing Sensitive Data

Kubernetes secrets are the usual means for storing credentials or passwords input for access. The operator reads the Secrets programmatically, which limits exposure of sensitive data. However, to protect your sensitive data, Oracle strongly recommends that you set and get sensitive data from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Vault, or from third-party Vaults.

The following is an example of a YAML file fragment for specifying Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Vault as the repository for the admin password.

```yaml
adminPassword:
ociSecretOCID: ocid1.vaultsecret.oc1...
```

Examples in this repository where passwords are entered on the command line are for demonstration purposes only.
