Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud Software (EECS) version 2.0.1, now Generally Available, gives users a platform ideal for both high-performance and mission critical applications and standardization and consolidation of virtually all Oracle Fusion Middleware, writes Juergen Kress in Oracle Daily. Exalogic hosts multiple concurrent tenants, business applications and middleware deployments with fine-grained resource management, enterprise-grade security, and extreme performance in a fully virtualized environment, he says. Additional capabilities include support for extremely high-performance x86 server virtualization and, as an IaaS management system, graphical, command line and Java interfaces for creating and managing users, virtual servers, virtual storage and virtual network resources.
