Overview

The Compartment Inventory provides a structured view of all OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) compartments within your organization.
It helps teams clearly differentiate production, staging, development, and platform-specific environments — ensuring accurate access control, asset association, and lifecycle oversight.

Compartment Inventory Overview

​
Compartment Structure & Status

Each compartment entry includes:
  • Compartment Name – such as Systems-Production, OCMDevelopment, or Platform-Staging
  • Lifecycle Status – Active / Deleted, based on the OCI sync
  • ARN Identifier – full OCI resource ID for traceability
  • Associated Assets – number of assets mapped inside the compartment
Active compartments represent live cloud environments. Deleted compartments indicate resources removed from OCI but retained in AIM for audit history.

​
Key Features

​
🔹 Environment Mapping

Compartments are automatically grouped by their purpose — such as:
  • Production
  • Staging
  • Development
  • Platform
  • Security
This gives security and infra teams a real-time understanding of their cloud architecture.

​
🔹 Lifecycle Visibility

Every compartment shows whether it is:
  • ACTIVE — currently available in OCI
  • DELETED — removed but retained for visibility
Deleted compartments help ensure no orphaned assets or IAM policies remain unnoticed.

​
🔹 Asset Association Insights

Each entry displays how many assets are tied to the compartment:
This is useful for identifying compartments that:
  • Should be cleaned up
  • Are incorrectly empty
  • Contain high-value or sensitive workloads

​
Example Compartment Types

Some environments identified in your screenshot include:
  • Systems-Production
  • Security-Production
  • Platform-Production / Platform-Staging
  • OCM-Development / OCM-Production
  • Payment-Development
  • sysops-staging-bgqH5qLo (Deleted)
  • sysops-production-haQ92vWN (Deleted)
AIM aggregates all these into a single unified monitoring interface.

​
Use Cases

Cloud Governance

Track compartment proliferation and enforce naming and environment standards.

Access Control Audits

Review which teams and systems rely on which compartments.

Cost & Resource Management

Identify unused or deprecated compartments to reduce spend.

Security Oversight

Detect compartments with no assets or those marked deleted but still holding policies.
