Welcome to the WebLogic Kubernetes Operator!

What is it?

The WebLogic Server Kubernetes Operator supports running any of your WebLogic Server and Fusion Middleware Infrastructure domains on Kubernetes. This enables you to encapsulate your entire WebLogic installation and layered applications into a portable set of cloud neutral images and simple resource description files. You can run them on any on-premises or public cloud that supports Kubernetes where you've deployed the Operator.

Furthermore, the Operator is well suited to CI/CD processes as you can easily inject changes when moving between environments such as from test to production. For example, you can externally inject database URLs and credentials during deployment, or you can inject arbitrary changes to most WebLogic configuration.

The operator uses a common set of Kubernetes APIs to provide support for operations such as: provisioning, life cycle management, application versioning, product patching, scaling, and security. The operator also enables the use of tooling that is native to this infrastructure for monitoring, logging, tracing, security, and CI/CD.

Getting Started

The fastest way to experience the operator is to follow the Quick Start guide, or you can peruse our documentation, read our blogs, or try out the samples.
