Create an Oracle Integration Instance
Create an Oracle Integration instance in a selected compartment.
Some restrictions exist for creating instances. See Restrictions.
Note
- Your Oracle Integration 3 instance is associated with an IDCS instance during instance creation. You cannot change this association after instance creation.
- The steps here apply to Oracle Integration 3 and Oracle Integration for SaaS. Differences in instance creation are noted. For more information about the SaaS version, see Oracle Integration for Oracle SaaS.
- You cannot split a single instance into two shapes (for example, into test and development shapes). Instead, you must create separate instances for each shape.
Choose a License Type
Select a license type for your Oracle Integration instance.
- Subscribe to a new Oracle Integration license: Select this option if you want to purchase a new license. With this option, each message pack includes 5,000 messages per hour.
- Existing Oracle Fusion Middleware license (BYOL): Select this option if you want to use your existing license. With this option, each message pack includes 20,000 messages per hour. (This option isn't available for the Healthcare edition.)
Note: This field appears only if you are provisioning an Oracle Integration instance. It doesn't apply to Oracle Integration for SaaS.
Choose a Message Pack Number
Select a suitable number of message packs to handle the message usage you expect for your instance.
Message pack options are based on the type of Oracle Integration license you have.
- For Oracle Integration:
If you created a new Oracle Integration license in the cloud:
- Each message pack includes 5,000 messages per hour.
- You can select up to 12 message packs in the user interface.
If you brought an existing Oracle Fusion Middleware license to the cloud (BYOL):- Each message pack includes 20,000 messages per hour.
- You can select up to 3 message packs in the user interface.
- For Oracle Integration for SaaS:
- Each message pack includes one million messages per month.
Note that usage is tracked on a monthly basis instead of hourly, which keeps costs predictable even when you have unpredictable hourly volumes.
- You can select up to 43 message packs in the user interface.
- Each message pack includes one million messages per month.
Note:
- You are responsible for billing based on the number of message packs you select. Select enough message packs to adequately handle your instance's activity. See About Integrations Usage.
- The number of message packs you subscribe to can also affect the processing time of synchronous requests. See Message Pack Usage and Synchronous Requests.
- You can also specify the number of message packs using the command line option. This enables you to specify larger values than permitted by the user interface. See Override the Message Pack Limit Using the Command Line.
