Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Foundations 2020 Associate — Question 1

A new customer has logged into Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) as an administrator for the first time. The admin would like to deploy infrastructure into a region other than their home region.
What is the first step they must take in order to accomplish this task?

Answer options

• A. Navigate to the desired region and begin creating resources.
• B. Subscribe to the desired region.
• C. Use API endpoints to create resources in the desired region.
• D. File a service request for access to each additional region.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct first step is to subscribe to the desired region, which allows the administrator to gain access to it. Simply navigating to the region (Option A) won't enable resource creation without prior subscription. Options C and D are unnecessary steps that do not address the immediate requirement of subscribing to the region.
