Prerequisites to Provisioning Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic

Review this section to learn about some things you have to do before you can provision Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic instances.

Selecting an Oracle Storage Cloud Service When Provisioning an Oracle Database Cloud Service

When provisioning an Oracle Database with the Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service provisioning wizard, you must select an Oracle Storage Cloud Service even though this field is optional. If you do not select an Oracle Storage Cloud Service, when you run the Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic provisioning wizard and select this Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service, instance provisioning fails. Always select an Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service that has an Oracle Storage Cloud Service associated with it.

When you configure the backup destination be sure to select Both Cloud Storage and Local Storage from the dropdown menu. If you don’t select Both Cloud Storage and Local Storage, theOracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic provisioning wizard will not present that Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service instance as an available database in the Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic provisioning wizard.

Selecting an Oracle Database Cloud Service When Provisioning an Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic

Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic uses Database Cloud Service to host the Oracle Fusion Middleware component schemas required by Oracle Java Required Files (JRF). Make sure you have a subscription to Database Cloud Service (Database as a Service), NOT Database Cloud Service (Database Schema).

Note:

To work correctly with Oracle API Platform Cloud Service - Classic, the Database Cloud Service must have backup enabled and be set up to use Both Local and Cloud Storage.
