Create a Oracle Cloud Compartment

By Chris Bensen

If you prefer you can read this blog post on GitHub here.

A Compartment is useful when you want to organize and isolate your cloud resources. This is the same reason you have boxes and drawers at home or carry things around in a backpack. Think of it like a Folder on your computer’s file system.

This tutorial requires an Oracle Cloud account. You can sign up for a Free Tier account today!

  1. Click the menu icon in the upper left corner.
  2. Scroll to the bottom, under Identity, click Compartments (or in the search bar, type Compartments):

3. Click Create Compartment.

4. Populate the Name and Description fields.

5. Leave the parent compartment set to (root), unless you want the compartment to be a sub compartment.

6. Click Create Compartment.

7. Click the Oracle Cloud logo to return to the dashboard.

Pretty simple, right?
