1.3.1 Supported IBM WebSphere Application Servers
Oracle supports the following third-party application server products for specific Oracle Fusion Middleware products and certain Oracle Fusion Middleware
configurations:
■
IBM WebSphere Application Server - Network Deployment ND 7.0.11
■
IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0.11 Note that this information was valid at the time this document was published. For the
most accurate and up-to-date information about the IBM WebSphere supported by Oracle Fusion Middleware, see the Certification information on the Oracle Technology
Network OTN, as described in Section 2.1, Task 1: Review the System Requirements
and Certification Information .
1.3.2 Understanding the Topology of Oracle Fusion Middleware on IBM WebSphere
When you install and configure Oracle Fusion Middleware on IBM WebSphere, the resulting topology depends on whether you are running IBM WebSphere Application
Server or IBM WebSphere Application Server - ND.

1.3.2.1 Typical Oracle Fusion Middleware Topology on IBM WebSphere Application Server - ND
When you install and configure Oracle Fusion Middleware with IBM WebSphere Application Server - ND, the configuration process automatically creates an IBM
WebSphere cell that contains a special server, in addition to the Deployment Manager, called the OracleAdminServer.
This OracleAdminServer hosts the key infrastructure pieces of Oracle Fusion Middleware, including the Java Required Files JRF and Oracle Enterprise Manager
product templates:
■
The JRF template provides important Oracle libraries and other capabilities that support new versions of APIs that many Oracle Fusion Middleware products and
applications depend upon.
■
The Oracle Enterprise Manager template provides Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control, which you can use to manage the Oracle Fusion
Middleware products you install and configure.
Additional products are installed on additional servers in the newly created IBM WebSphere cell.
When you configure your IBM WebSphere cell for use with Oracle Fusion Middleware, you can also include additional servers and clusters in your cell, and you can
configure the Oracle Fusion Middleware products to work with an Oracle Real Application Clusters Oracle RAC database.

1.3.2.2 Typical Oracle Fusion Middleware Topology on IBM WebSphere Application Server
When you install and configure Oracle Fusion Middleware with IBM WebSphere Application Server, only one server is created. This one server is used both for
administration and for application hosting.
