SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 6 -- Further enabling customers to benefit from server consolidation, energy and space cost savings by using enterprise-class server virtualization, Oracle today announced Oracle(R) VM Templates.
-- Oracle VM Templates offer a time-saving approach to deploying a fully configured software stack by providing pre-installed and pre-configured images of enterprise software.
-- Fully supported by Oracle for production deployments, the first set of Oracle VM Templates are now available for:
-- Oracle Database 11g,
-- Oracle Enterprise Manager,
-- Oracle's Siebel CRM 8, and
