For details about third-party integration architectures, see...

Some questions following our last few JRE certifications indicated that there's still lingering confusion about which JRE releases are safe to use with E-Business Suite environments. To recap: JRE releases 1.6.0_18 through 1.6.0_22 had issues with mismanaging session cookies that affected some users in some circumstances. The fix for those issues was first included in JRE 1.6.0_23. These fixes will carry forward and continue to be fixed in all future JRE releases. In other...

For those of you to whom I had the pleasure of speaking at Oracle OpenWorld last week, I promised you would likely see good news by the time you returned home from the conference.

A customer recently reported an issue where they needed to bounce their E-Business Suite application tier (mid-tier) servers once a week to resolve stability issues. This shouldn't be necessary. We recommend against bouncing EBS application servers regularly. We've done a lot of work with the E-Business Suite to ensure that regular bounces are not required with the latest releases. Bouncing your system can reduce performance It seems counter-intuitive, but bouncing your...

[July 30, 2012 update: Corrected Note reference to 823586.1] [Sept. 2, 2011 update: Our Maximum Availability Architecture architects have pointed out two additional considerations that are documented in our existing documentation: 1) Although SCAN listener is supported with EBS 12, if scan_name resolves in DNS to IP1 and IP2, the client-side 10.1.2 network code does not use round robin on the underlyng IPs if the first IP fails. An Autoconfig solution for this is being...
