Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Options and Its Feature by Pranay Tiwari



Cloud Compute Services -Oracle Cloud Infrastructure nothing but “IaaS” (Infrastructure as a Service). Currently, Oracle provides three different options which I have described briefly

Option One: Single Node on Oracle Compute Cloud Service (IaaS)


The single node on a IaaS option consists of an all-in-one Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.X machine image that includes both the application tier and database tier. This is available on Oracle Cloud Marketplace along with its updated features, so you can quickly provision the latest image to explore new features.
This feature also enables you to deploy a Standalone database, WebLogic servers etc. on IaaS.
Suitable for Small Organization


Option Two: Multiple Nodes on Oracle Compute Cloud Service (IaaS)

With Option Two, we can provide multiple application tiers plus a separate database tier on the Oracle Compute Cloud Service. Through Multiple Nodes, we can leverage the application tier as needed and it also allows us to create a new installation of Oracle E-Business Suite (Note only Oracle 12.1.X & 12.2.X) across the Compute Cloud Service instances. The flexibility of this option makes it ideal for supporting production workloads as well as development in testing, training environments and in all types of Oracle E-Business Suite installations.
Going with Option Two EBS installation will be no cumbersome as you just need to search image of Oracle EBS 12.2.X from Oracle Cloud Marketplace (Oracle Cloud Marketplace is an online store dedicated to marketing cloud business apps). It’s still unclear whether will get a free subscription if we go for IaaS paid Subscription
Multiple applications are available in Oracle Cloud Market Place , Below list relevant only to EBS (Note 12.1.3 Image not available in Oracle Cloud MarketPlace)
·        Vision installations of Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 images from the Oracle Cloud Marketplace
·        Fresh installations of Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 images from the Oracle Cloud Marketplace

Suitable for Medium size  Organization


Option Three: Compute Cloud Service + Oracle Database Cloud Service (DBCS)



The third option is a variant of the multiple nodes option offered by option two. It comprises the same components but does not deploy the Oracle Database within a virtual machine on the Oracle Compute Cloud Service. It uses a subscription to Oracle’s Platform as a Service (PaaS) or Exadata Cloud Service to provide the Oracle E-Business Suite database. As with option two, you can choose to provision these multi-tier instances either from the Oracle Cloud Marketplace (for demos and fresh installs) or from on-premises instances (for cloning of existing Release 12.2 or 12.1.3 instances).
In future Autonomous Database Cloud Service will be provided instead of Exadata Cloud Service, with the usage autonomous database maximum security of the database can be ensured . 

Suitable for Large Size Organization


Oracle IaaS is supported for:
  • Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.3 and higher
  • Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3
  • Not supported for 11i ( Organization must  upgrade all 11i Instance to 12.2.X(Recommended))
  • Oracle Database 12c Release 1(12.1.0.2) or Oracle Database Release 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.4)
  • On-Premise database can be Non-RAC/RAC
  • On Cloud IaaS can provision Single-node database (non Oracle RAC)
