Create and Deploy SBC Instances on EC2

You can deploy the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller (SBC) on Amazon's Elastic Computing (EC2) infrastructure in either standalone or High Availability (HA) mode. When deployed on this platform, you configure and operate the SBC as you would on any other platform. You deploy the SBC to use the environment's IP infrastructure, including the private and public addressing scheme, and its translation functions to protect the EC2 management environment from direct exposure to the SBC service delivery environment. These deployments also use EC2's DHCP to establish consistent, compliant management addressing and flat networking across both management and service traffic.

Oracle recommends you use AWS enhanced networking for better network I/O throughput. Refer to your SBC Release Notes for your version's supported machine shapes. You can also refer to AWS resources, including the Enable enhanced networking with the Intel 82599 VF interface on Linux instances web page for key information about enhanced networking, including the EC2 machine shapes that support it.

Find release-specific requirements and information on this feature in your SBC Release Notes. Find configuration information in the SBC ACLI Configuration Guide. If desired, request information to refine your virtual machine resources configuration to desired performance from Oracle Support or Sales.
