# OCI Queue
Integration version1.0.0
## Overview{% #overview %}

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Queue is a service for enabling asynchronous (decoupled) communication in a serverless manner.

This integration collects metrics to monitor and alert on the health and size of your queues by collecting metrics from the [oci_queue](https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/queue/metrics.htm) namespace.

## Setup{% #setup %}

### Installation{% #installation %}

After setting up the [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/oracle_cloud_infrastructure/) integration, ensure that any namespaces mentioned above are included in your [Connector Hub](https://cloud.oracle.com/connector-hub/service-connectors).
