How do I install SOA on ODA myself? (OOW)

Use WebLogic on ODA but need to consider…

Disk space

Packages

Tuning

FMW Infrastructure (12c)

Shared Storage & more…

Or Do It Yourself OVM template…

not really the ODA way!

How O-box builds on ODA &

SOA Best Practices

Based on Oracle developed ODA implementation of

Database, WebLogic and Traffic Director

Follows Oracle’s Enterprise Deployment Guides

Includes insight and experiences gained from taking several SOA

projects from design to production

How O-box Enhances Both ODA & SOA Offerings

O-box is the perfect “in a box” ODA use case

“Packaged up” SOA makes it more product-like Helps overcome SOA installation complexity challenges

O-box builds on the ODA philosophy of simple management Running latest patch-sets reduces support costs & increases security

O-box dramatically simplifies SOA infra implementation
