How to Deploy Django on Oracle Cloud

Django is a powerful web framework that makes it easy to build complex, database-backed web applications. With Oracle Cloud, you can deploy your Django application quickly and easily. This tutorial will walk you through the steps of deploying a Django application on Oracle Cloud.

Step 1: Create an Oracle Cloud Account

The first step in deploying your Django application on Oracle Cloud is to create an account. You can do this by visiting the Oracle Cloud sign-up page. Once you have created your account, you will be able to access the Oracle Cloud console.

Step 2: Install the Oracle Cloud CLI

The next step is to install the Oracle Cloud Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is a tool that allows you to manage your Oracle Cloud resources from the command line. To install the CLI, follow the instructions on the Oracle Cloud documentation page. Once you have installed the CLI, you can use it to manage your Oracle Cloud resources.

Step 3: Create a Compute Instance

Once you have installed the CLI, you can use it to create a compute instance. A compute instance is a virtual machine that will host your Django application. To create a compute instance, run the following command:

Replace , , , , and with values from your environment. You can find these values in the Oracle Cloud console.

Step 6: Deploy Your Application

Once your application is configured, you can deploy it using the Oracle Cloud CLI. To deploy your application, run the following command:

This command will launch a compute instance with your Django application running on port 8000.
