[The article applies to EBS 12.1 and 12.2; it is an updated version of this older article that covered EBS 12.0 and 11i] The E-Business Suite has its own security and user-management capabilities. You can use the E-Business Suite's native features to authenticate users, authorize users (i.e. assign responsibilities to them), and manage your EBS user repository. The majority of E-Business Suite system administrators simply use these built-in capabilities for enabling access...

You can apply any Oracle Internet Directory (OID) bundle patchsets that have been certified at the fourth-level digit to a certified Oracle E-Business Suite release. The fifth-level digit in OID versions is not relevant to E-Business Suite certifications. For example, we have certified EBS 12.2 with OID 11.1.1.9. All of the following Oracle Internet Directory patchsets will work with EBS 12.2: Oracle Internet Directory 11.1.1.9.0 (documented certification) Oracle Internet...

The Rapid Clone tool is used to create a working identical copy of an existing Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 environment. There are several ways of using Rapid Clone, including cloning a single node environment to another single node environment, adding additional nodes to an existing environment, and reducing nodes when cloning a multinode environment to a single node clone. The guide to using Rapid Clone in EBS 12.1 environments is: Cloning Oracle Applications Release 12...

Customers frequently ask whether Oracle E-Business Suite is certified with the FIPS standards. The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) Publication 140-2 defines US Federal standards for cryptographic-based security systems. FIPS Publications are issues by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). From our Oracle E-Business Suite Security FAQ (Note 2063486.1) The cryptographic modules in Oracle E-Business Suite currently cannot be considered FIPS...

Oracle versions numbers can be very long. Complicating matters further, different product families within Oracle use the version hierarchy differently. This can make it confusing to determine whether a specific product update has been certified with Oracle E-Business Suite. Oracle Database update numbers can be daunting. However, it might be reassuring to learn that the fifth-level digit in Oracle Database version is not relevant to E-Business Suite certifications. In...

You may have end-users outside of your organization's firewall who need access to E-Business Suite. One way of doing that is to set up a reverse proxy server and a series of network segments separated by firewalls. The outermost network segment that lies between the internet and an organization's intranet is often called a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). DMZs are enforced by firewalls and other networking security devices. Setting up a DMZ Instructions for deploying EBS 12.2...

[Update Apr. 24, 2017: Java Web Start is now available for EBS 12.1 and 12.2. See this article for details.] Does EBS depend upon Java on desktop clients? Yes. The E-Business Suite requires Forms. Forms is started by a Java applet. Java applets are launched by the Java Plug-in using a browser that supports plug-ins via the NPAPI protocol. The Java plug-in runs in the browser memory space and manages the execution of the Forms applet and other EBS applets in one or more...
