About Provisioning an Oracle SOA Cloud Service Instance

You can provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance on either Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic.

Note:

The information in this topic applies only to existing Oracle SOA Cloud Service accounts.
Using a simple wizard that guides you through the provisioning process, you specify information about your instance including:
  • Instance name

  • SSH public key

  • Cluster size

  • Software release

  • Service type

  • WebLogic Server shape

  • Backup and recovery configuration

  • Database configuration

  • Load balancer configuration

The Oracle SOA Cloud Service environment provides Oracle SOA Suite (12.2.1.4.0 or 12.2.1.3.0) on a single virtual machine, Oracle WebLogic Server default configurations, simplified provisioning for a single node instance, self-management tools, and secure shell (SSH) access to the virtual machine. The environment also provides simplified node cluster provisioning; simplified configuration to preexisting DBaaS and SaaS environments; and cloud self-management tools for automated backup/recovery and scaling, local and central monitoring and management, centralized provisioning, and comprehensive APIs.

Oracle handles all node provisioning, installation, and domain configuration after you make your selections.
