A. B. C. D. E.AB.
https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Functions/Concepts/functionsconcepts.htmOracle Functions is a serverless compute platform that allows developers to write, deploy, and scale code without managing servers. An Oracle Functions application is a collection of functions that share the same configuration and resources. Here are the explanations for each of the options:
A. A small block of code invoked in response to an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Events service. This statement accurately describes the role of an Oracle Function. A function is a small block of code that performs a specific task and is executed in response to an event or trigger. For example, an event could be a message in a queue or a change in a database. When the event occurs, the function is invoked automatically to process the event.
B. A Docker image containing all the functions that share the same configuration. This statement is incorrect. While Docker images are used to package and deploy functions in Oracle Functions, an Oracle Functions application does not necessarily contain all the functions in a single Docker image. Instead, each function is packaged as a separate Docker image that can be deployed independently.
C. An application based on Oracle Functions, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Events and OCI API Gateway services. This statement is partially correct. An Oracle Functions application is based on Oracle Functions and OCI Events, but it is not necessarily based on OCI API Gateway. OCI API Gateway is an optional service that can be used to provide a secure, managed API for the functions in an Oracle Functions application.
D. A common context to store configuration variables that are available to all functions in the application. This statement is partially correct. An Oracle Functions application does provide a common context to store configuration variables, but not all functions in the application can access the same variables. Each function can have its own set of configuration variables that are specific to that function.
E. A logical group of functions. This statement is correct. An Oracle Functions application is a logical grouping of functions that share the same configuration and resources. Functions in the same application can be managed together and can interact with each other through events and triggers.
