Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oracle WebLogic Suite as our application server for development and production deployment. It is also used for connection management and application deployment.

Pros

Starting and stopping the application is easy using the WebLogic console.
Database configurations can be done easily.
Easy to add any new configuration param or jar.

Cons

WAR file deployment sometimes tricky.
Thread dump to read.
Database's live connection usage.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited for our production environment where we have to manage 100+ servers. With Oracle WebLogic Suite, we can create clusters, have deployment plans created, and use the same ones for deployment at our convenience.

My Weblogic Review

Rating: 8 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oracle WebLogic Application Server for OBIEE. We manage OBIEE application administration using WebLogic Server. It's a web-based application, so all administration is done through WebLogic Application Server. We do a lot of deployments using the WebLogic Server. It helps us to keep our applications up and running.

Pros

We are able to manage the application and deployments well using WebLogic Server in OBIEE.
We can monitor the application health using WebLogic Server.
It makes the job easy for our Administrators.

Cons

User interface can be better - when we go to the application, we have to do a lot of clicking to see all of the things. It would be better of all the data was visible from one window.
Performance can be better.
It should be able to send alerts in case of server health issues.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's well suited for Oracle Fusion technologies. Managing applications using Oracle WebLogic Server is pretty easy. However it can still do better in managing the system performance. Oracle can improve the WebLogic Application Server by adding altering functionality in the application and also it can improve the user interface so that any administrator can quickly do the analysis and solve issues.

WebLogic Features, and some negative points

Rating: 9 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Oracle WebLogic as our fraud application (Tombeller Siron Suite) and Oracle OFSAA (LFRM) application. The Siron WebLogic system serves all bank financial transactions, like Swift. LFRM is a finance management application. Mainly our finance and risk departments are using this application.

Pros

First reason: it's easy to manage. There are many management services we are using, and this service gives us flexibility.
Second reason is redundancy. We are using high availibility features for mission critical services.
Security. Oracle publishes new security patches and upgrades often.

Cons

Licensing model is complex.
VMware support and certified features are very important, and also whether or not WebLogic supports and is certified to VMware virtualization. We can use more WebLogic systems.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you have mission critical services, and you need high availability, WebLogic is suitable for using there. But if you have a small project, sometimes WebLogic licenses are too expensive.
