Infrastructure DMZ
In this tier, you run all components of OracleAS Infrastructure 10g, except for Oracle
Application Server Single Sign-On and Oracle Delegated Administration Services,
which run in the Web Server Tier DMZ.
You install the OracleAS Infrastructure 10g behind another firewall so that Web servers
do not have direct access to other computers in the enterprise. Oracle Application
Server Metadata Repository and Oracle Internet Directory contain critical data used by
Oracle Application Server instances.
OracleAS Metadata Repository contains security metadata, management metadata,
and product metadata. J2EE and Web Cache instances and the infrastructure
components such as Oracle Application Server Single Sign-On use this repository.
