For the installation of the SOA Cloud Service (SOACS), a database is needed for the repository. This tutorial shows the required steps to create a database instance with the DBCS.
A new service can be created via (surprise) Create Service.
The normal Oracle Database Cloud Service is required for the SOACS.
Choose release 12.1
For this tutorial, the Enterprise Edition will be sufficient. For production systems, the High- or Extreme-Performance editions should be taken into consideration.
Now give the service the necessary settings such as sizes and passwords. It is important to set up a Backup Destination, as that is a requirement for a SOACS repository. Use the Cloud Storage Container which has been created in the last chapter of this tutorial (format: Storage-IdentitiyDomain/Name).
A last summary, click on Create.
