How to setup High Availability for Applications with Oracle 12c Flex Clusters

Learn how to configure High Availability for Applications (e.g. Apache, Tomcat, etc) with Oracle 12c Flex Clusters (aka Oracle Clusterware 12c).  Of course, we can configure HA for databases too, but if your applications will failover also, well that is fantastic.  Yes, it can be done with FREE software from Oracle, Oracle 12c Flex Clusters.
