Deploy an Oracle Cloud (OCI) Virtual Machine with KopiCloud AD API in Windows Server 2022

The Terraform code in this repo will deploy an Oracle Cloud (OCI) Virtual Machine for the KopiCloud AD API with Windows Server 2022 and SQL Server 2022 Express.

Network Configuration

The code will create the network resources (VCN, Subnet, Internet Gateway, Routes).

Notes

• By default, the download and installation of SQL Server Management Studio is disabled because it will take lots of time.

• The default Windows username is opc, and you can get the password from the Terraform output.

api_admin_password = "B21AqTpHlai[5"
api_admin_user = "opc"
api_public_ip = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
