Container images are portable software bundles that you can distribute across environments.
You can use these images to instantiate containers where applications run in isolation from other applications running in different containers on the same host operating system.
You can install Oracle WebCenter Sites container images in one of the following ways:
- Download a prebuilt Oracle WebCenter Sites image from Oracle Support. See Doc ID 2777062.1. This image is prebuilt by Oracle and includes Oracle WebCenter Sites 12.2.1.4.0 and the latest Patch Set Updates (PSU).
- Build and patch your own Oracle WebCenter Sites container image by using the WebLogic Image Tool. For information about the different ways to build your own container images, see Building the WCS Image.
- For test and development purposes, create an Oracle WebCenter Sites image using a Dockerfile. See Creating Oracle WebCenter Sites Docker Containers.
Note:
Oracle WebCenter Sites container image is supported according to the Supported Virtualization and Partitioning Technologies for Oracle Fusion Middleware. Oracle WebCenter Sites container image excludes components such as SatelliteServer, SiteCapture, and VisitorServices.Parent topic: Deploying Oracle WebCenter Sites on Kubernetes
