Our ever-handy RapidClone utility allows you to create a standalone copy of an existing Oracle Applications system. There are many scenarios where it’s useful to clone an Applications environment, including:
- Standard cloning – Making a copy of an existing Oracle Applications system, for example a copy of a production system to test updates.
- System scale-up – Adding new machines to a system to provide the capacity for processing an increased workload.
- System transformations – Altering system data or file systems, including actions such as platform migration, data scrambling, and provisioning of high availability architectures.
- Patching and upgrading – Delivering new versions of Applications components, and providing a mechanism for creating rolling environments to minimize downtime.
