Oracle WebLogic Suite Virtualization Option

Designed to run on a server virtualized with Oracle VM (hypervisor software that runs directly on the bare metal system hardware) Oracle WebLogic Server on Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition significantly improves performance and decreases complexity of virtualized IT environments.

Enabling this direct runtime approach is a modified Oracle JRockit Java Virtual Machine named Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition. In addition to processing Java bytecode, Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition provides essential capabilities otherwise delivered by a full featured general purpose guest O/S. Eliminating the guest O/S creates a substantially smaller disk footprint for the appliance.

Oracle WebLogic Suite Virtualization Option delivers administration and configuration efficiency, superior performance in virtualized environments and the ability to more quickly and easily adjust runtime support as application load changes.

• Improved Server Density—By eliminating the guest operating system, more system resources are available to run additional application server instances on the same hardware
• Higher Performance—Compared to traditional virtualization environments, enterprise Java applications run much faster in this leaner deployment
• Simplified Management—Less software to install, configure, monitor and manage dramatically increasing operational efficiency
