The instructions in this guide accommodate a variety of possible configurations. Before you start installing, identify the operating system, application server, database, and JDK you will be using (see Installation Requirements above for details). In addition, determine whether your Oracle Commerce Platform environment will include or exclude the International module. The International module is necessary for sites that will support multiple languages or multiple countries. If you do not install the International module, your production instance of Commerce Reference Store will include the English versions of CRS Store US and CRS Home only. You will not see CRS Store Germany or the Spanish translations for CRS Store US and CRS Home.

As you progress through this guide, take care to follow the instructions that match your configuration.

Also, note that the Commerce Reference Store and this Installation and Configuration Guide have been tested on the following configurations:

Note: Refer to the Oracle Commerce Supported Environments document in the My Oracle Support knowledge base (https://support.oracle.com/) for detailed information on the supported versions of the operating sytems, application servers, databases, and JDKs in the list above.
