Migration to Oracle Weblogic 12c and Clustering



Weblogic 12c has been a great revision to the oracle fusion middleware product application server and now we have had a chance to work with this can see just how good it really is.
Having covered a few migrations to 12c now can say the clustering across multiple nodes works really well having extensively performance tested this and compared with some older oracle application server / container based products it is a massive improvement. 12c supports java 8 and 64 bit server processing. And works nicely on oracle solaris 10 on sparc CPU's as well as solaris zones which is oracles version of unix containerisation for the os. Version 12.1.1 had many bugs which weve had the pleasure of helped Oracle identify many bugfixes 12.1.2 an later are much more stable and usable. Overall it is a massive improvement over 11g. For clustering 2 through to 16 nodes it runs great.
Oracle continue with there suite of integrations of there other products the list now is extensive along with the aquisitions these include products from ATG, Agile PLM, Endeca, HCM and E-Business suite.
