Abstract: A system and method for providing JAVA cloud services for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a cloud environment, such as ORACLE Public Cloud (OPC), can include a JAVA cloud services (JCS) infrastructure, which allows a suite of software applications, middleware, and database offerings to be delivered to customers in a self-service, elastically scalable manner. In accordance with an embodiment, the JCS infrastructure can orchestrate, in combination with other cloud environment components, the creating and/or updating of a platform instance of a JAVA cloud service, including provisioning and deployment of the platform instance and/or deployment of software applications, and one or more personality injection or application deployment processing. Additional resources and/or services, such as a database service, can be wired to or otherwise associated with the JAVA cloud service, for use by customer applications that are deployed to the cloud.

Abstract: A system and method for patching cloud services for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a cloud environment includes a cloud services infrastructure, which allows a suite of software applications, middleware, and database offerings to be delivered to customers in a self-service, elastically scalable manner. Over time, it may become necessary to update one or more of the deployed services. In accordance with an embodiment, services can be patched using a two phase approach. During an offline phase, patches are used to update shared components, such as middleware volumes, without disrupting any currently running services. Subsequently, during an online phase, patched components are enabled on all service hosts, and any necessary domain update/upgrade operations are invoked.
