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 WLS dynamic cluster on Azure VMs. 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) VMs (you can choose the number of VMs - all instances will have private IP addresses by default)
• Dynamic cluster consisting of WebLogic Managed Server instances on each VM (ORACLE_HOME is /u01/app/wls/install/oracle/middleware/oracle_home)
• Admin Server on one of the VMs
• WLS Domain with default name wlsd (domain path is /u01/domains/wlsd/)
• Oracle JDK on each VM (JAVA_HOME is /u01/app/jdk/jdk-${version})
• Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) VM instance with a public IP address by default for load balancing (ORACLE_HOME is /u01/app/ohs/install/oracle/middleware/oracle_home) - optional
• 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/)
• Configured data source connection (Oracle DB, Azure SQL, Azure MySQL, Azure PostgreSQL) - optional
• VMs with private IP addresses to run data tier Managed Coherence cache servers - optional
• Virtual network and subnet (alternatively, you can deploy to an existing virtual network)
• Network security group
• OS disks attached to VMs
• Storage Account, to store VM diagnostics, and file share named wlsshare (mount point is /mnt/wlsshare)

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 a single WLS Admin Server instance on an Azure VM. These options are linked in the Learn more section below.
