Understanding WebLogic Domain Types

During the PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture (PIA) setup, you can choose between two different WebLogic domain configurations: a single-server domain and a multi-server domain. A multi-server domain can be expanded across multiple machines using the distributed managed server option. So, a distributed managed server implementation is a variation of the multi-server domain. Each of these domain configurations has a specific purpose but is fully customizable beyond that purpose.
