This section defines the platforms on which Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway is verified to operate.
Supported Platforms Summary Table
Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway is certified on the following platforms:
* Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway is tested and supported on the versions of Oracle Linux specified. Because Oracle Linux is 100% userspace-compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway also is supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux for this release.
Windows Server is not supported for Production environments. Wherever Windows Server is referenced within this guide, it is supported for Test or Development environments only.
The following Oracle Database Server Editions are supported:
• Oracle Database Enterprise Edition
• Oracle Database Standard Edition
Note: Oracle Database Enterprise Edition and the Partitioning and Advanced Compression options are not mandatory but recommended.

Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, including the Advanced Compression and Partitioning options, is strongly recommended in all other situations.
