ODI deployment steps

Summary

deploying standalone listener

Dears,

I am getting into ODI (OCI Marketplace) lately. VM is up and running and ODI was deployed correctly using native repository. I registered a database target (Autonomous DWH / alway free) in topology/Oracle.

Now what would be the next steps? I would like to setup a data flow between 2 databases, one located on premise (Oracle Express) and another one in the cloud (my ADWH always free instance)

As far as I could read an agent is required.
- will standalone agent do the trick?
- how to deploy standalone agent? Do I need to run the ODI standalone setup from main installer? (that's pretty heavy for a simple "standalone agent" isn't it)
