Which Load Balancer is right for you..?

Posted by Sriram Sanka on September 20, 2023


Oracle has Two Load Balancer Services available. , In case if you are not sure which one is best for you and what are the differences, you can refer the following chart provided by Oracle. https://cloud.oracle.com/load-balancers#

Load balancer

The load balancer service provides a reverse proxy solution that hides the IP of the client from backend application server and vice versa. It is capable of performing advanced layer 7 (HTTP/HTTPS), layer 4 (TCP) load balancing and SSL offloading.

Best for: Websites, mobile apps, SSL termination, and advanced HTTP handling.

Network load balancer

The network load balancer service provides a pass-through (non-proxy solution) that is capable of preserving the client header (source and destination IP). It is built for speed, optimized for long running connections, high throughput and low latency.

Best for: Scaling network virtual appliances such as firewalls, real-time streaming, long running connections, Voice over IP (VoIP), Internet of Things (IoT), and trading platforms.

Enable/Disable MFA on Oracle Cloud (OCI) portal

Posted by Sriram Sanka on September 12, 2023


When signing up, it is mandatory to configure and enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Once configured, during the login process, you will be required to obtain approval either through the Oracle Authenticator App or by obtaining a passcode.

To customise the MFA Configuration, access the Identity & Security section and select the desired domain. This action will direct you to the Domain Dashboard, where you can choose the appropriate security settings and explore additional options for Multi-Factor Authentication.

You can change the Default Configuration under Identity–>Domains–>Default domain–>Security –>MFA, when you try to update the changes , you may get the error as below “You cannot disable these factors as they are being referenced in Rules used in Sign-On Policies. Remove them from the Rules before disabling the factors.”

In order to prevent the occurrence of the aforementioned error, it is advisable to disable the default sign-in policy for both users and administrators as indicated in the error message.

Please note that it is not advisable to disable security policies and multi-factor authentication (MFA) for cloud access. follow https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Security/Reference/iam_security_topic-IAM_MFA.htm for more information.
