Oracle VM Virtual Appliance for EBS 12.2
Oracle is pleased to announce that a new VM Virtual Appliance, which contains Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Release 12.2.12 and Oracle Database 19c, can now be downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
You can use this on-premises appliance to create an EBS 12.2.12 Vision demonstration instance on a single, unified virtual machine running both the application tier and database tier services.
Use with Oracle VM Manager or Oracle VM VirtualBox
This virtual appliance can be imported into Oracle VM Manager to deploy an EBS Linux 64-bit environment on compatible server-class machines running Oracle VM Server. It can also be imported into Oracle VM VirtualBox to create a virtual machine on a desktop PC or laptop.
Note: This virtual appliance is for on-premises use only. If you’re interested in running EBS on Oracle Cloud, see Getting Started with Oracle E-Business Suite on Oracle Cloud (MOS Note 2066260.1) and our sister blog Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Cloud for more information.
