1.6.5 Oracle TopLink with Oracle Coherence
A restricted use license for Oracle TopLink and Application Development Framework see
Section 1.1, Oracle TopLink and Application Development Framework restricted to use TopLink with Coherence is included in all licenses of Oracle
Coherence Enterprise Edition and Oracle Coherence Grid Edition.
1.6.6 Management Pack for Oracle Coherence
Management Pack for Oracle Coherence provides comprehensive monitoring and management capabilities for Coherence. This pack provides complete cluster visibility
by supplying detailed metrics of various cluster artifacts and their interdependencies. You can monitor more than one Coherence cluster from a single console.
Enterprise Manager provides out-of-the-box support for metric alerts, enabling users to proactively monitor cluster health. Various performance charts show real-time and
historical performance trends. Enterprise Manager automates the mundane tasks of setting up Coherence software and creating a cluster on distributed machines.
Enterprise Manager also enables users to start and stop new nodes in an already monitored Coherence cluster. Similarly, users can also start and stop the entire cluster.
For complete license details about Management Pack for Oracle Coherence, see Oracle Middleware Enterprise Management in Oracle Enterprise Manager Licensing
Information. This document is available from the Oracle Enterprise Manager Documentation page at

Coherence TCMP clusters must be homogeneous with respect to the Coherence Edition. A TCMP cluster of one type for example, Caching Edition may connect to a TCMP cluster of another type for example, Grid Edition as a Data Client or as a
Real Time Client, but this requires server-side licenses. The connection type is configurable and defaults to Real Time Client.
2
Coherence Editions may not be mixed within the context of a single TCMP-based cluster. Integration of different Edition types is accomplished through CoherenceExtend with each cluster acting as either a Data Client or a Real Time Client.
3
Oracles cluster-aware wire protocol TCMP provides detailed knowledge of the entire cluster that enables direct server access for lower latency and higher throughput, faster failoverfailbackrebalancing, and the ability for any participating member to
act as a service provider for example, data management, remote invocation, management and monitoring, and so on.
