Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning has a rich set of features that helps keeping under control the lifecycle of the database fleet. From provisioning new clusters to patching and upgrading databases, all the common operations that are usually time-consuming and complex can now be achieved with a single command. This standardized way of managing the database lifecycle reduces dramatically the human labor and increases the efficiency and predictability of the operations. Both the powerful command line and the embedded RESTful APIs can be easily integrated with CI/CD pipelines, orchestration frameworks or configuration management tools that are broadly used by every company embracing the DevOps methodology.
