Use Cloud Object Store for Output Interfaces

In the interests of a seamless integration of WMS data with your preferred cloud storage service provider, Oracle WMS now supports the capability to configure object store for Output Interfaces in the Endpoints UI.

This feature saves you time and cuts the redundancy of data storage management-related processes across WMS and your cloud storage. We’ve introduced a new Endpoints Interface Protocol called "Objectstore". Using this protocol, you can select from your data storage option from this list of supported service providers:

  • Object Storage (OCI)
  • Cloud Storage (GCS)
  • Simple Storage Service (AWS S3)
  • Binary Large Object Storage (Azure BLOB)

To setup the Endpoints for Output Interfaces, you can configure a specific set of fields/parameters that is particular to the selected service provider.

The following table lists the fields/parameters that you can configure for each of the supported cloud storage service providers:

CLOUD STORAGE SERVICE PROVIDER REQUIRED OR CONFIGURABLE FIELDS/PARAMETERS
Object Storage (OCI)
  • User
  • Fingerprint
  • Tenancy

NOTE: For some older tenancies, the namespace name string might be based on your tenancy name instead of being machine generated. If your namespace was created based on your tenancy name, your namespace uses all lower-case letters (regardless of the presence of capital letters in your tenancy name).

  • Region
  • Private Key
  • Bucket Name
  • Folder Structure
Cloud Storage (GCS)
  • Project ID
  • Private Key ID
  • Private Key
  • Client Email
  • Client ID
  • Bucket Name
Simple Storage Service (AWS S3)
  • Access Key
  • Secret Key
  • Region
  • Bucket Name
Binary Large Object Storage (Azure BLOB)
  • Connection String
  • Container Name

NOTE:

  • Refer to your respective cloud storage service provider’s guidelines and requirements for the credentials/parameters.

  • If any object store credentials are inputted incorrectly, the system will display an error dialog box: “Invalid data configured for: %FIELDS%".

  • If any mandatory fields are not configured, the system will display an error dialog box: "The following mandatory fields cannot be left blank: "%s List of mandatory parameters not configured %s".
