You are using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) DevOps service and you have successfully built and tested your software applications in your Build Pipeline. The resulting output needs to be stored in a container repository. Which stage should you add next to your Build Pipeline?

Step 1: Understanding the Requirement The objective is to store the resulting build output from a Build Pipeline in a container repository. In OCI DevOps, the build output is stored as an artifact, which can include Docker images or other build- generated files. To store these artifacts in a container repository, you need to explicitly deliver artifacts in the pipeline.
Step 2: Explanation of the Options
A . Trigger deployment This stage is used to trigger a deployment pipeline, which comes after the artifacts are already stored and prepared for deployment. Not applicable: This stage is downstream of storing artifacts and is used for deploying software, not for saving the build output to a repository.
B . Managed build The managed build stage is where you compile, test, and package the application. This has already been completed successfully according to the question. Not applicable: The question specifies that the build has been completed, so this stage is not relevant at this point.
C . Deliver artifacts The Deliver Artifacts stage in OCI DevOps pipelines is designed to store the output of the build process in an artifact repository, such as: OCI Container Registry (OCIR) for Docker images. Artifact Registry for build artifacts like binaries or JAR files. Applicable and Correct Answer: This is the correct next step for storing the resulting
Explanation:output of a build pipeline.
D . Export packages This is not a standard OCI DevOps pipeline stage. It may be relevant in other contexts but is not related to OCI DevOps for storing build artifacts.
Step 3: Key Concepts of "Deliver Artifacts" in OCI DevOps Purpose: Save build outputs (artifacts) to an artifact repository. Artifact Types: Includes Docker container images, binaries, JAR files, or other build outputs. Repositories Supported: OCI Container Registry (OCIR) OCI Artifact Registry Configuration: Specify the artifact source (build stage output). Define the destination repository (e.g., OCIR).
