Oracle announced Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder and Oracle WebLogic Suite Virtualization Option to help make running Java applications in a virtualised environment easy and practical.
Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder is a new product designed to help organisations quickly and easily deploy multi-tier enterprise applications in virtualised environments. It also enables administrators to quickly configure and provision these applications.
Oracle WebLogic Suite Virtualization Option brings together Oracle WebLogic Server with JRockit Virtual Edition. Oracle WebLogic Server can now run directly on Oracle VM without an operating system, a unique capability enabled by Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition.
“With these groundbreaking products, Oracle has made virtualisation a reality for Java enterprise applications. Moreover, we are the only vendor to empower customers with this kind of comprehensive solution,” said Steven G. Harris, Senior Vice President of Product Development, Oracle. “With Oracle WebLogic Server running on JRockit Virtual Edition, we have eliminated the trade-off of server density and performance by bringing the world’s #1 application server to virtualized environments.”
