Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder is designed to help organizations quickly create and configure entire multi-tier application topologies and provision them onto virtualized resources. It enables IT organizations to take multi-tier enterprise applications—for example, a web server, application server, and database—and package them into self-contained, single-purpose virtual machines called software appliances. Going further, Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder structures the process of combining these appliances into cohesive, reusable units known as assemblies. It makes the necessary connections between these appliances and then deploys the entire assembly—which comprises the complete multi-tier application—as a single unit. When that assembly is deployed, the components are configured automatically. Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder manages the entire lifecycle of application assemblies.
Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder works with Oracle WebLogic Server 12c, the latest release of Oracle WebLogic. With this release, Oracle WebLogic is certified for the full Java EE 6 platform specification and has improved integration with Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC). Oracle Traffic Director (available on Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud only) delivers a three- to four-times performance boost to Oracle WebLogic applications. Oracle WebLogic Server 12c is now available for download here.
