This is something new which I come to know with the help of your post. This helped a lot in installing Oracle SOA suite 11g. The steps are explained well with the help of screenshot. I find it quite easy even though I was doing it for the first time.

I have experience with Weblogic but am new to SOA and even newer to Exalogic.I will be installing SOA Suite with OSB in Exalogic for testing. It is not for the production environment and a very simple application will be used for testing. Database admin asked me what size database would be required but I did not find clear answer in the documentation anywhere. So, I am just surfing around for the answer. I would appreciate any answer.
ReplyDeleteThanks
P.S: Oracle Database 11.2 will most likely be the preferred choice for the database.
Size can be kept between 3 to 5 GB. Initially you won't be even utilizing 1 GB out of it but later during Performance or load testing, you may find it appropriate. There is also an option to purge the data if your database is full or you don't need that information to be kept for long time. Sorry for really late reply
