Abstract
A system and method for dynamic modification of service definition packages for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a cloud platform enables provisioning of enterprise software applications (e.g., Fusion Middleware applications) within a cloud environment. In an embodiment, enterprise applications can be packaged as service definition packages (SDP). To support maintenance of services (e.g., bug fixes, security updates, and configuration changes), a service's characteristics and requirements can be modified dynamically, by reconfiguring the cloud platform itself and/or by mounting a disk volume that corresponds to the service's SDP, and modifying its contents directly.
