Topology Overview

Topology defines the infrastructure layout that will be created on Oracle Cloud by Cloud Manager. Essentially, a topology defines a set of nodes, which is an abstraction of a virtual machine. While defining a node, you can set the values for node attributes, such as operating system, VM shape, disk capacity, and PeopleSoft components to be installed.

The PeopleSoft administrators create topologies for PeopleSoft applications as per their organization requirements. By default, the Cloud Manager is delivered with the following topologies:

  • Lift and Shift

  • Lift and Shift - DBaaS

  • PUM Fulltier

Note: Users are not allowed to delete lift and shift topologies that are used for lift and shift process.
