Oracle WebLogic Server (WLS) is an industry-leading Java runtime powering some of the most mission-critical enterprise applications across the globe. This solution automates most boilerplate steps to provision a single WLS node on an Azure VM. No domain is created, and no Admin Server is started. The offer is useful for scenarios with highly customized domain configuration. Once initial provisioning is complete, you are completely free to customize deployments further. The solution is jointly developed by Oracle and Microsoft.

WLS Enterprise Edition versions supported include 12.2.1.4, and 14.1.1.0.

The following resources are automatically provisioned by the offer.

• Oracle Linux or Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) VM with public IP address
• Single WLS Enterprise Edition instance (ORACLE_HOME is /u01/app/wls/install/oracle/middleware/oracle_home)
• Oracle JDK (JAVA_HOME is /u01/app/jdk/jdk-${version})
• In addition to drivers that come standard with WLS, most recent supported PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL JDBC drivers (drivers stored in /u01/app/wls/install/oracle/middleware/oracle_home/wlserver/server/lib/)
• Virtual network and subnet (alternatively, you can deploy to an existing virtual network)
• Network security group
• OS disk attached to VM
• Azure Storage Account to store VM diagnostics

This offer is Bring-Your-Own-License. It assumes you have already procured the appropriate licenses with Oracle and are properly licensed to run offers in Microsoft Azure.

Oracle and Microsoft also provide basic step-by-step instructions on getting started with WLS and Azure VMs without automated provisioning.

Oracle and Microsoft provide similar solutions targeting WLS on the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) in addition to Azure VMs (single instance or cluster). These options are linked in the Learn more section below.
