Container Platforms for Solution Designer

Oracle Communications Service Catalog and Design - Solution Designer is designed to be agnostic of the underlying cloud infrastructure. It relies on standard APIs, objects and configuration functions from the software products listed in this document. As such, Service Catalog and Design is certified on any container platform based on a CNCF-certified Kubernetes, provided the version requirements listed in this document are satisfied.

Solution Designer has been tested on a standard "upstream" (kubernetes.io) deployment of Kubernetes on Linux VM and bare metal (private lab and IaaS). Solution Designer has also been tested on Oracle OCI OKE platform with Oracle Multitenant Database via co-located Oracle Database Service (VM). Solution Designer includes specific support for OCI and OKE.

Other Kubernetes distributions and container platforms may impose their own operational, security and configuration requirements. These would have to be addressed as part of the uptake of Solution Designer, with support from the third party provider.

An important requirement is the presence of an Oracle Multitenant Container Database in close network proximity to the platform, in an environment and configuration that is officially supported by Oracle.
