Oracle Integration Cloud: Customer Managed & Patching by Jan Kettenis

Currently the Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) only comes as "customer managed". Among others this means that you as a customer have access to management consoles. It also means that you determine when to apply patches, as Oracle does not do that for you. The following describes how easy that is.
Oracle Cloud solutions can come in two flavors: Oracle Managed and Customer Managed. The first means that maintenance, including patching is done by Oracle. You don’t have to ask for nor to initiate it as it all happens "automatically", typically during non-business hours (like Friday evening). It also means that you don’t have any control over it. Now that probably is exactly what you want. However, in case of OIC that currently only comes as Customer Managed. This means that you have access to the Weblogic Service Console and the Fusion Middleware Console (although not with all the features that you for example would have with the on-premise version of the BPM Suite). I expect these consoles not to be available in the Oracle Managed flavor to come soon. Read the complete article here.
