US Patent 9906578 System and method for providing an enterprise deployment topology

In accordance with an embodiment, one or more enterprise software application products, such as Fusion Applications, can be installed and/or configured according to an integration and deployment design/blueprint that is built or optimized for use within a multi-tiered enterprise deployment topology at an organization/customer's data center. Based on the organization/customer's site topology and needs/requirements, provisioning of the software applications can be optimized, and application life cycle operations performed. This enables each product component to be aware of the topology, which in turn provides customers with an “out-of-the-box” solution. The deployment topology can also be optimized for security, performance and simplicity.
