Integration

Hello,

I need to evaluate the "Oracle BPEL Process Manager" for a seminar at my university.

I am completely new to the BPEL topic and I need some help installing the "BPEL Process Manage".

1) I downloaded the file "Oracle BPEL Process Manager (10.1.3.1.0)" for x86 Windows. 340 MB ; filename: "soa_windows_x86_bpel_101310.zip"
2) In the Install Guide of that package it says there are two installation scenarios:
■ Scenario 1: Oracle BPEL Process Manager with Oracle SOA Suite
■ Scenario 2: Oracle BPEL Process Manager for OracleAS Middle Tier

I think the best and easiest (and smallest?) for me is the first one "with Oracle SOA Suite". But the Guide I have is only for the second Scenario.

It says the first one would be explained in the guide "Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) Installation Guide", but there's nothing said about BPEL ! ??

Do I have to download the complete "Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.x)" ?!

Or can I just try to execute the setup of my "Oracle BPEL Process Manager (10.1.3.1.0)" without a guide?


I'm really confused here and help would be much appreciated.

regards
