JD Edwards on Cloud - FAQs

-
Q: Up to this point, what has Oracle announced about JD Edwards and Oracle Cloud?


A: Oracle announced the availability of two different JD Edwards EnterpriseOne offerings through the Oracle Cloud Marketplace. The first is the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Trial Edition, an “all-in-one” view of a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system, making it easier to deploy. Built with current Applications and Tools releases, it’s an ideal way to explore the latest features made available by Oracle. The second is a Multi Tier Edition (OCP tool), which includes discrete images for the enterprise server, HTML server, and database server. This edition also has a Server Manager, allowing a system administrator to take control over the deployment configuration. The Multi Tier Edition also has utilities for transitioning customers’ data and custom objects from on-premise to the cloud environment. By leveraging the Trial Edition and the Multi Tier Edition, JD Edwards clients can get a hands-on experience of running JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Oracle Cloud.


Q: What exactly is Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Oracle Cloud?


A: This refers to running Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) offerings, specifically the Oracle Compute Cloud Service and the Oracle Database Cloud Service.


Q: What capabilities are available at the moment?


A: An Oracle Compute Cloud subscription and the tools in the Oracle Cloud Marketplace let you easily provision new instances of Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, deploy development tools on the cloud, and also clone your existing Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne instances from on-premises to Oracle Cloud. Your on-premise and cloud instances can also be managed simultaneously from the Oracle Application Management Suite.


Q: What are the benefits of using Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Oracle Cloud?


A: The biggest benefits are the support for business growth, greater business agility, and lower costs and risks. Organizations need to be agile to respond to business changes like acquisitions, globalization, and regulatory or process changes and adopt new technologies or applications. Teams can provision new development and test environments quickly with Oracle Cloud in response to such changes while ensuring the continuity of day-to-day operations. Oracle's IaaS is elastic and allows IT teams to scale the infrastructure up or down on demand. This elasticity and the flexibility to pay-as-you-go minimize the need for upfront capital and decrease wait times for hardware and other tools, reducing overall project risk. Oracle Cloud provides a complete integrated cloud platform with best-in-class IaaS and PaaS suite offerings, which allows for hybrid deployment choices across private and public cloud options.


Q: What are some of the ways we can use JD Edwards EnterpriseOne with Oracle Cloud?


A: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne lowers the total cost of ownership with simple provisioning of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne in Oracle IaaS. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Trial Edition all-in-one image with demo data allows users to explore new functionality in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Application Release 9.2, like the new industry modules, One View Financial Statements, Internet of Things Orchestrator, as well as mobile and user experience, without having to install JD Edwards EnterpriseOne in their data centers. Alternatively, customers on JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Application Release 9.1 can easily provision multi-tier environments in Oracle IaaS. This solution in combination with the Server Manager component and the Migration Toolkit provided by Oracle allows customers to easily transfer their development and test data, customizations, and patch level from their on-premise instances to Oracle IaaS. Customers can also leverage Oracle Database Cloud Service (DBCS) for the JD Edwards database layer. The combination of IaaS and DBCS allows customers to easily provision new instances of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, resulting in reduced administration cost and increased agility.


Q: Can we customize JD Edwards EnterpriseOne when we use Oracle Cloud?


A: Yes, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software architecture lets customers modify their systems, whether the systems are deployed on Oracle Cloud or within an on-premise data center.


Q: How do we migrate JD Edwards EnterpriseOne customizations and data from on-premises production system to the cloud?


A: A cloud migration utility is available that enables this migration.


Q: Can we upgrade JD Edwards EnterpriseOne instance as part of migrating to the cloud?


A: No. The cloud migration utility currently only allows for the same EnterpriseOne release migration from on-premise to the cloud.


Q: Is it possible to migrate JD Edwards EnterpriseOne test instances currently running on a non-Linux platform to Oracle Cloud?


A: Oracle Cloud runs Oracle Linux. You have to migrate non-Linux instances (such as Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, and Windows) to Linux on-premises.


Q: Is there differences in patching of the apps, database, and middleware in the cloud versus on-premises?


A: The same tools and utilities are used to patch components in Oracle Cloud and on-premises. You can use Server Manager to update the Tools Release and Deployment Server instance provided in Cloud to update your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Apps.


Q: Can we use the same certified third-party products we currently use on-premise with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Oracle Cloud?


A: Yes, the entire JD Edwards EnterpriseOne architecture is the same, whether deployed on-premise or on Oracle Cloud. All the third-party components that make up a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application will be deployed in the cloud. Oracle’s Cloud strategy also allow customers to use Oracle Cloud to host instances of other applications that may be used to integrate with their JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems.


Q: What tools are needed for managing JD Edwards environments on Oracle Cloud?


A: The Oracle Application Management Suite allows you to monitor and manage Oracle Cloud and on-premises instances with a unified interface.


Q: Will our cloud-based JD Edwards system be visible to the general public?


A: No, based on Oracle Compute Cloud’s default security settings, your JD Edwards instance will only be accessible by internal users and teams.


Q: Can we use the Database Cloud Service and Exadata Cloud Service with Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne?


A: Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Development is currently testing different deployment options with the database hosted on the Oracle Database Cloud Service and the application tier hosted on the Oracle Compute Cloud Service.


Q: What does hybrid cloud mean for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne?


A: As customers and partners evaluate their choice of platform and deployment options for their JD Edwards EnterpriseOne installations, one of the most common configurations that might make business sense is a hybrid deployment model. Depending on the business needs, the development and testing environments can be deployed on the cloud platform while the production instance can continue to be run on-premise. The EnterpriseOne instance can be deployed on the cloud platform while some of the integrations will run on-premise or vice versa. JD Edwards cloud platform strategy supports these scenarios and allows for a hybrid deployment model, based on the choice and control of our customers and partners.

In my earlier post (OCI -Part1 ), we have gone through OCI basic details, let's dive deep more into it. Before that, we need to u nderstand the following concepts and terminology to help you get started with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.  Note: OCI is re-branding of Bare Metal Cloud Service (BMCS) BARE METAL HOST Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides you control of the physical host (“bare metal”) machine. Bare metal compute instances run directly on bare metal servers without a hypervisor. When you provision a bare metal compute instance, you maintain sole control of the physical CPU, memory, and network interface card (NIC). You can configure and utilize the full capabilities of each physical machine as if it were hardware running in your own data center. You do not share the physical machine with any other tenants. REGIONS AND AVAILABILITY DOMAINS  Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is physically hosted in regions and availability domains. A region is a localized geographic area, an...

How to Change Your EnterpriseOne Environment Color

-
Image
Sometimes users start working and then forget which EnterpriseOne environment they are logged into. Can you tell which environment you are logged into? Luckily, there is a new UDC that allows you to change your EnterpriseOne environment color. You can now set up environments to be color-coded for when you need a clear visual distinction as to which environment you are logged into. This enables you to quickly identify the non-production environments by color. The new UDC is 98/CO and is available in EnterpriseOne Tools Release 9.2.4 with Applications Release 9.1 and 9.2. The image below shows the default EnterpriseOne environment color. However, you can easily change the color to reflect different environments. For example, DV could be red, PY could be green, and PD could be yellow, as shown below. To do so, just add a new row in the User Defined Codes section, enter the EnterpriseOne environment name and the HEX value of the color you want the environment to be, and ...
