Oracle Blogs: Additional EBS on Oracle Cloud Automation Capabilities

We're pleased to be able to share some good news just in time for Collaborate!

Building on the release earlier in March, we have just added support to our provisioning and lift and shift automation both for further release combinations and also for the Exadata Cloud Service.

To take advantage of the new capabilities, you need to obtain the updated EBS Cloud Admin Tool that is included with the latest Provisioning Tools image in Oracle Marketplace.

New Multi-Node Provisioning Capabilities

Our enhanced automation features include the capability to provision a new installation of:

• Oracle E-Business Suite  Release 12.1.3
• Oracle E-Business Suite (Release 12.2 or 12.1.3), with the Oracle E-Business Suite Database on Exadata Cloud Service

The following tables show which combinations of Oracle E-Business Suite releases, Oracle Database releases, and Oracle Cloud services are currently supported by the provisioning automation.

Detailed instructions can be found in the Oracle by Example tutorial Provisioning a New Multi-Node Oracle E-Business Suite Installation in Oracle Cloud Using the EBS Cloud Admin Tool.

New Cloning Capabilities

As described in our earlier article, cloning occurs in two linked stages:

1. Back up your on-premises EBS installation to Oracle Storage Cloud Service
2. Provision your desired topology on Oracle Cloud

When you use our automation to clone an Oracle E-Business Suite environment from on-premises to Oracle Cloud, you now have the option to place the EBS database on the Exadata Cloud Service.
The following tables show which combinations of Oracle E-Business Suite releases, Oracle Database releases, and Oracle Cloud services are currently supported by the cloning automation.


Detailed cloning instructions can be found in the Oracle by Example tutorial Cloning Oracle E-Business Suite from On-Premises to Oracle Cloud Using EBS Cloud Tools.
