Overview
The term machine represents a physical computer that hosts
one or more Oracle WebLogic Server instances. Machine identifies a particular
physical piece of hardware. A machine is used to associate a computer with the
Managed Servers that it hosts and it runs a supported operating system platform.

Corporation. The Dizzyworld system architects have decided to simulate the production
