Using the Standard Installation Topology As a Starting Point
The standard installation topology is a flexible topology that you can use as a starting point in production environments.
If required, you can later extend the standard installation topology to create a secure and highly available production environment, see Next Steps After Configuring the Domain.
The standard installation topology represents a sample topology for this product. It is not the only topology that this product supports. See About the Standard Installation Topology in Planning an Installation of Oracle Fusion Middleware.

See Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control in Understanding Oracle Fusion Middleware. |
Cluster | A collection of multiple WebLogic Server instances
running simultaneously and working together.
See Overview of Managed Servers and Managed Server Clusters in Understanding Oracle Fusion Middleware. |
Machine | A logical representation of the computer that hosts one or more WebLogic Server instances (servers). Machines are also the logical glue between the Managed Servers and the Node Manager. In order to start or stop the Managed Servers using the Node Manager, associate the Managed Servers with a machine. |
Managed Server | A host for your applications, application
components, web services, and their associated resources.
