Ok… after a ton of debating and drinking, I’ve finally come to a conclusion.

On what, you ask?

Well, over the past few weeks, I’ve been giving myself a crash-course on the new 11g stack for Oracle’s Identity Management Fusion Middleware. During this time, I finally figured out how to get everything installed (on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 Update 3):

  • Oracle Identity Manger 11g
  • Oracle Access Manager 11g
  • Oracle Adaptive Access Manager 11g
  • Oracle Identity Federation 11g
  • Oracle Internet Directory 11g
  • Oracle Virtual Directory 11g
  • Oracle HTTP Server
  • Oracle Directory Integration Platform 11g
  • Oracle WebLogic Server 11g
  • Oracle Database 11gR2
  • Oracle Identity Navigator 11g
  • Oracle Authorization Policy Manager
  • Oracle Platform Security Services

While doing this, I learned a lot…. srsly…

More importantly, I captured the whole process on video, and made video tutorials / guides on how to install and configure each product. Since it’s a video, you’ll also see a few mistakes that I made along the way, this way if the same happens in the future, the fixes are documented.

There are some documents out there, a few blogs with some high-level steps, and one guy I know is selling an eBook on the install process for about $100 (and it’s probably worth it!), so now my dilemma is two fold:

1. Should I make this information that’s worth more than gold available to others?

2. If so, how much should I charge?

Now back to the “I’ve made a decision” part:

1. Yes, I’m going to release these videos to the public.

2. I’m going to charge $1,000.

 

 

Hahahah… just kidding =)

I’ll be giving them away free, right here!

Once I get the write-up’s done, and the videos uploaded, I’ll starting posting the videos on my blog for everyone to use.

DONE!

  1. Installing Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 Update 3 on VMWare
  2. Installing and Configuring Oracle Database 11g Revision 2 (11gR2)
  3. Installing WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.3)
