The following sections provide information on the preparations you need to know before installing Oracle SALT:
Oracle SALT provides a native Web service stack for Tuxedo. It enables you to integrate Web service applications and Tuxedo applications via the SOAP/WS-* protocol or by using SCA. Oracle SALT is a separate product that must be installed on top of Tuxedo.
Oracle SALT software is distributed as an installer file which can be executed on Windows or UNIX platforms using any of the following three methods:
Oracle SALT 10g Release 3 (10.3) distribution contains the following key components:
Oracle SALT components are installed directly in the Oracle Tuxedo TUXDIR directory.
A supported version of Tuxedo must be installed before you can install SALT. If SALT 10g Release 3 (10.3) is installed over a Tuxedo server installation, then you have the choice of installing the SALT Client and Server, the SALT Client, Server, and server-side Sample Applications, or the SALT Client only.
If the Tuxedo client platform is installed, then only the SALT 10g Release 3 (10.3) client components are available for installation.
Regardless of which SALT package is installed, there are additional sample applications available on the Oracle Technology Network showcasing server-side and client-side capabilities of the SALT Service Component Architecture software.
Please refer to Oracle SALT 10g Release 3 (10.3) Supported Platforms for Oracle SALT 10g Release 3 (10.3) supported Tuxedo platform list.
