About Siebel Cloud Manager

SCM is a platform for deploying and managing Siebel CRM containers on Kubernetes clusters, either on premises or in the cloud. It is built on modern cloud native tooling such as Terraform, Ansible, and so on. You can use SCM to:

  • Automate the deployment and management of Siebel CRM:
    • On a variety of platforms such as:
      • Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) compliant Kubernetes cluster such as:
        • Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) on Oracle Cloud
        • Oracle Cloud Native Environment (OCNE) on premises or on cloud
        • Red Hat OpenShift, and so on
      • Oracle Compute Cloud@Customer (OC3) in your own data center.
    • With the option to either:
      • Migrate existing Siebel CRM environments, on premises or on cloud, to CNCF compliant Kubernetes clusters using the Siebel Lift utility or
      • Create a new greenfield deployment of Siebel CRM. You can perform the greenfield deployment using the default configuration or you can customize the configuration before deployment.
  • Run and maintain the Siebel CRM Enterprise.
  • Deploy Siebel CRM Upgrade Factory which simplifies the Siebel CRM application upgrade process by allowing you to upload your customized, pre-IP2017 repository to run an upgrade and Incremental Repository Merge (IRM) process on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
  • Deploy Open Integration on a Kubernetes cluster.
  • Deploy AI Connectors on a Kubernetes cluster. For more information, refer to the "Deploying Siebel AI Connectors Using Siebel Cloud Manager" topic in the Siebel Installation Guide.

For more information on CNCF compliant Kubernetes, refer CNCF online documentation.

For more information on OC3, refer Oracle Cloud Compute @Customer.

Note: Read this entire document and related documents and familiarize yourself with the concepts, tools, and methods for deploying Siebel CRM or other applications on CNCF compliant Kubernetes clusters mentioned above or on OC3. Many of the cloud computing principles and capabilities described by the CNCF apply to deploying Siebel CRM containers (referred as Siebel CRM in the document) using SCM. Apart from the Siebel-specific particulars, some such information is beyond the scope of this document.
