Provision an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace Quick Start Instance (Deprecated from Release 24.4.2)

You can use the Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace Quick Start option to quickly provision an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace instance along with underlying Oracle Cloud Infrastructure network resources. This option is available in both BYOL and PAID offerings.

Capabilities and Usage Notes

The Quick Start option allows you to provision an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace instance with default values and fewer clicks than going through the full provisioning wizard. A quick start instance is useful for testing integrations with minimal knowledge required to set up Oracle Cloud Infrastructure network resources.

  • An Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance is automatically provisioned with an Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) database, along with required network resources.
  • Billing is for single node Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace cost per the UCM hourly license model. This includes billing for an ATP shared database, which is provisioned by the Quick Start.

  • A quick start instance is automatically provisioned with the following capabilities:

    • 12.2.1.4 Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle Service Bus, and Oracle B2B topology.

      • Compute shape: VM Standard 2.1, 24GB Memory

    • Oracle ATP database - 2 OCPU with 19c

    • Within the compartment, the following resources are created:

      • VCN - 10.0.0.0/16 (instance name prefix QSVCN)

      • Public subnet - 10.0.0.0/28 (instance name prefix QSSubnet)

      • Required security lists

      • Internet gateway (instance name prefix internet-gateway)

      • Route table

      • DHCP

      • All resources are tagged with freeform tag QSTag:IntanceNamePrefix
    • An Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance supports all Oracle Cloud Infrastructure operations on compute instances, such as start and stop.

    • To delete a quick start instance, you must destroy the stack and optionally delete the stack. Once the stack is destroyed, all resources and compute instances that are created with the stack will be deleted. See Deprovision an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace Instance.

      Note:

      If you manually create additional resources such as subnets in the quick start VCN, you must delete them before destroying the stack. Otherwise, the destroy operation will delete only compute instances, without deleting the resources.
    • Post-provisioning, you must add security lists to known CIDRs so you can access the WebLogic Server Administration Console URL.
  • The following functionality is not supported in an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance:
    • Multinode clusters.
    • Addition or removal of nodes (scale out and in).
    • Adding or editing a load balancer during provisioning.
    • MFT or BAM topologies.
    • DBFS mounts.

Prerequisites

Before creating an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance, you must set up a compartment and add required IAM policies. If your tenancy does not already include the compartment for your quick start instance, you can create a new one. See Create a Compartment.

Steps

To provision an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance:

  1. Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.
  2. Click Version and select the Quick Start option.

    Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console Sign In: select Quick Start option

  3. Select the Compartment in which you want to create the database and quick start instance.

    Note:

    If not already granted, you will need to ask your administrator to grant the following manage and use permissions in the compartment:

    • allow group groupName to manage instance-family in compartment compartmentName
    • allow group groupName to manage virtual-network-family in compartment compartmentName
    • allow group groupName to manage volume-family in compartment compartmentName
    • allow group groupName to use database-family in compartment compartmentName
    • allow group groupName to use autonomous-database-family in compartment compartmentName

    where groupName is the name of the group to which you belong and compartmentName is the name of the compartment where Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace instances will be created.

  4. Accept the terms and restrictions, then click Launch Stack.

    The Create Stack wizard is displayed.

  5. Configure the instance as follows:
    Field Label Description
    Server Instance
    INSTANCE NAME PREFIX Enter the prefix you wish to use for the instance name. This name must be unique in your identity domain.

    The instance name will be used as a prefix for compute and network resources that will be created for the quick start instance.

    For example, if the instance name is QSSOA, resources will be created as QSSOA-QSVCN, QSSOA-QSSubnet, and so on.

    SSH PUBLIC KEY

    Enter the public key for the secure shell (SSH). This key is used for authentication when connecting to the instance using an SSH client. See Generate a Secure Shell (SSH) Public/Private Key Pair.

    ADMINISTRATION PASSWORD Enter a password that meets the specifications shown below the field. This password is used for signing in to SOA Consoles as the weblogic user. It is the administration password to connect to the ATP database.

    For example:

    Configure an Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance
  6. After the quick start instance is created, confirm the resources, which should be similar to the following:
    Configure Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance: subnet resources
    Configure Oracle SOA Suite on Marketplace quick start instance: security list resources
