Release Roadmap “100-day” release Tools 11g 10gR3 update 11gR1 WLS 10.3 BEA WLS Workshop 10.3 11gR1 Upgrade to OFM 11 WLS 10.3MP1 (w OAS Functionality) FMW 11 JDeveloper 11 OEPE 11 Upgrade 10.1.3.4 10.1.3.5 to OFM 11 Oracle iAS JDeveloper 11g (ADF 11 on WLS 10.3) TopLink 11g Oracle JDeveloper Summer 2008 Winter 2008 Fall 2008 First Half 2009 (Oracle SOA Suite (Oracle SOA Suite on iAS 10.1.3 & on iAS 10.1.3 & WLS 9.2) WLS 10.3) Standard support Release 14

Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3 • Hardened release of the WebLogic 10.x release cycle • Recommended WLS 8.1, 9.2 and 10.x upgrade path • Fully branded Oracle and conformant to Oracle product release criteria • Contained feature set in areas of lightweight install, performance, Spring, Web services and high availability • Foundation release of Fusion Middleware 11 R1 • Fusion Middleware 11 R1 will do small incremental maintenance changes to core WebLogic Server • Certified with Oracle Infrastructure • Coherence, TopLink, JDeveloper, DB 11 15

Application Server Upgrade – Customer Advice • Taxonomy of Customers/Partners • Investment Primarily Focussed on Oracle Application Server • Investment Split Between WebLogic Server and Oracle Application Server • General Advice • Oracle Application Server - Continue deployments and upgrade schedule within Oracle Application Server family until FMW 11 R1 • Some tactical approaches depending on starting point – specifically SOA Suite and WebCenter 17

Oracle Application Server Upgrade to Fusion Middleware 11 R1 • Oracle Fusion Middleware Suites generally will have a formal migration procedure from OracleAS 10g R2 and OracleAS 10g R3 to Fusion Middleware 11 R1 (already existed for pre-FMW 11) • Oracle Portal • Oracle Discoverer • SOA Suite • Oracle Forms and Reports • WebCenter/ADF • Identity Management • Applications built using J2EE and deployed on OC4J will need to be redeployed to FMW 11 R1 • Migration guides and best practices will be made available • Evaluation of tooling to facilitate migration is under way • Primary area of planning is operations and administration change 18

Customer Problems • Industry trends driving new infrastructure demands • SOA, WOA, SaaS, Cloud, RIA, Consolidation, Mobile • New levels of performance, scale, availability • Highly unpredictable performance requirements • Developers require more flexibility and choice • Java Enterprise Edition, Spring, SCA, CEP, Scripting…. • Pressures on IT • Deliver application infrastructure that meets all of the above • Accelerate time to deployment and production • Manage and control the infrastructure efficiently 20

Fusion Middleware Application Server: Innovation at the Foundation Layer 4 e.g. Interaction API Layer 3 e.g. SOA API New New Needs Abilities e.g. App Server Layer 2 API Layer 1 e.g. JVM New Ideas New needs and abilities are often most powerfully addressed in lower layers 21 9/10/2008 ©2008 Oracle Corporation

Application Server Major Directions • Table stakes • New standards – JEE, WS-* , Security Standards • Certified Infrastructure for Fusion Middleware • Deeper and Richer RAC Integration • Increased Enterprise Manager Integration • The Doubled Down Investment • Scaling Down • OSGi and Modularization • Scaling Out • Coherence and JRockit Infrastructure 22

Scaling Down WebLogic Server with Modularization – Goals and Benefits • Developer flexibility E J J • Modular updates W J M S • Lightweight production S B S P deployments • Non Java EE WLS RASP WLS – JMS personalities • Installer options Grid • “Upward” compatibility • Integrated maintenance 23

Scaling Out WebLogic Server with the Application Grid – Goals and Benefits • Extreme Application Scalability Requirements • Scale-out middleware to hundreds of servers acting in concert • Adaptive application infrastructure for assured QOS • Automated application management large pools of resources to reduce operational cost • Predictable, reliable application performance • Design for maximum reliable throughput with reduced latency 24

Oracle WebLogic Application Grid Extreme Scale-Out Deployment and Performance for Java • Coherence Grid Edition • JRockit Real Time • WebLogic Operations Control • Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Oracle Pack WebLogic • JRockit Mission Control Application • Application Diagnostics for Grid Java 25

Integrating Coherence into WebLogic Server “Deep” OOB Integration “Light” OOB Integration • Massive scale out clusters • State Replication • Scale out in memory JMS • Clustered Caching • JPA on the Grid • Scale out data grid tier 26

Application Server Strategy Summary Oracle and WebLogic are #1 • Combined, Oracle provides the #1 Java EE application server, designed for the most mission-critical of applications • Increased Investment in lightweight, productive, standards-based development and deployment • Renewed Focus on Levels of Quality of Service – performance, scalability, reliability, availability • Execution on Best of Breed Manageability – deployment, monitoring, diagnostics, maintenance • Delivery of Next-Generation Scale Out – scale linearly, efficiently, automatically WebLogic Server Clusters Oracle Differentiator: the “ilities” WebLogic Application Grid 27
