1Z0-1067-25 Question 4
Single answerYou manage a multi-tier application on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and need to consistently deploy and manage the same set of resources (Compute instances, networking components, and autonomous database) across multiple environments (Dev, Test, and Production). Which approach provides the most efficient way to replicate and manage these resources in a standardized manner?
- A
Manually create each environment through the OCI Console steps every time
- B
Use Terraform-based stack definitions in Oracle Resource Manager to automate deployments
- C
Rely on custom shell scripts exclusively to clone resources from one environment to another
- D
Create a single large compartment containing all environments for easier administration
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Terraform-based automation through Oracle Resource Manager is a recommended best practice for standardizing resource deployment. This infrastructure-as-code approach ensures consistent environments, easy updates, and clear version control. Refer to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Resource Manager documentation for guidelines on creating and managing stacks with Terraform for multi-environment deployments.
- A. Incorrect.
Manual creation through the OCI Console is error-prone and does not ensure consistent replication of environments, especially when the setup grows more complex.
- B. Correct.
Using Terraform-based stack definitions in Oracle Resource Manager allows you to define and version your configurations as code, ensuring fast, repeatable, and error-free environments deployment across stages.
- C. Incorrect.
Shell scripts might reduce some manual work, but they can become difficult to maintain, are less standardized than Terraform, and may not integrate as cleanly with Oracle Resource Manager.
- D. Incorrect.
Combining all environments into a single compartment is discouraged because it mixes dev, test, and production resources, complicating security, billing, and access control.
