Provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service Instance Using the REST API
To provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure using the REST API instead of the provisioning wizard, see "Provision a New Instance" in REST API for Oracle SOA Cloud Service.
To provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure using the provisioning wizard, see Provision a Custom Oracle SOA Cloud Service Instance on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Notes:
- Associations do not show up in the Oracle SOA Cloud Service Console. The REST API Response also does not show the associations.
- Coordinated backups are not supported with the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database or Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) database.
- Do not delete a database after creating it. There is no check while deleting an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database or Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) database that is associated with an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance.
- Make sure that the database is up and running when using it to provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance.
- In REST API, when using a connect string, you must connect to an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database created under the same region and availability domain. If not, there are performance issues. The connect string is not validated while provisioning the Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance. Provisioning fails if the connect string provided is incorrect.
- Make sure that the database port is open to the SOA subnet before using REST
API to provision a new Oracle SOA Cloud
Service instance. For an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database, the port is
1521; for Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) database, the port is1522. -
When updating database password credentials, make sure that the database password adheres to the following standards:
- Password must contain at least 2 uppercase characters
- Password length should be greater than 9 characters
- Password must contain at least 2 special characters
