Get Started with Oracle Integration Cloud Services- Introduction (1/4) by Pulkit Mathur

December 13, 2017 Leave a comment

image

Recently, I got the chance to work with a limited-time trial of Integration Cloud Services provided by Oracle. This is a blog to help you get started on understanding what Integration Cloud Services is about.

Introduction:

Integration Cloud Service and SOA Cloud Service are two cloud integration products that have been launched by Oracle in recent times.

The first question that arises is why two products? The primary difference between the two is the range of functions that can be done. While SOA CS is basically SOA Suite in the cloud, and intended for hardcore developers who are used to working with SOA Suite and want to continue leveraging it’s multiple capabilities like MDS and the ability to achieve very complex integrations; ICS is more of a lightweight service that can be used to achieve simple, lightweight integrations that do not require much complexity. Oracle intends ICS to be used by technically inclined clients without the need for a hardcore developer to come in and save the day!

In my opinion, the main differentiating factor of ICS from other integration cloud products is the rich variety of connectors that they offer (currently 50) that includes connections to other cloud products like RightNow, Eloqua, SalesCloud and various social media like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and a lot more.

Without further ado, let’s get started with how to request a trial of ICS from Oracle:

1)    Go to cloud.oracle.com

2) Click on ‘Try It’ on the top right corner, and scroll down to ‘Integration’ Read the complete article here.

OOW17 – Cloud is driving IT transformation and Oracle innovation by: Eric Bezille

December 9, 2017 Leave a comment

Today was again a very fully packed day at Oracle Open World. Starting with Mark Hurd, providing the vision of Oracle CEO on the global market and how Enterprises are forced to re-invent themselves or to face disintermediation, due to new comers leveraging the technologies to their benefits: doing the same thing but differently. Enterprise have to simplify and stop spending 80% of their IT budget to keep the light on. That’s where the Cloud model kicks in.

As Oracle we could not keep up if we were running Oracle Cloud like a traditional IT does, with multiple heterogeneous layers and vendors to integrate, patch and upgrade. The fact that we own all the stack from disk, to servers, to operating systems and even higher up with the Database and application stacks make a huge difference. We have one thing to manage, like Exadata to run the Oracle Database. That’s why Cloud is driving IT transformation and our innovation. (full video replay here).

This was clearly illustrated during Oracle Systems General Session, re-emphasis on the tight integration benefit of hardware and software, leading to unique optimizations, including one key aspect that was already touch on by Larry Ellision opening Keynote: Security (check here and here)… A new topics that is now also on CEO agenda.

And this tight integration is leading us to unique innovation capabilities helping us to scale, and you as well, as our technology is available in 3 deployments models. Again this was also demonstrated today with the launch of Exadata X7, applying in-memory technology in storage not to accelerate analytic but OLTP workloads: something pretty counter intuitive for pure hardware vendors of storage, but possible as soon as you combine hardware and software up to the Database layer. That makes a huge difference. Read the complete article here.

Blockchain announcement by Joost Volker

December 8, 2017 Leave a comment

Oracle’s announcement of the new Blockchain Cloud Service at OOW17 was very well received by our customers, partners and analysts. This came shortly after the August announcement that Oracle has joined the Hyperledger project, which provided clear directions that Oracle embarks on open source collaboration, modular architecture, horizontal/cross-industry technology support, and support for enterprise needs. (see Oracle announcement: Oracle Cements Interest on Blockchain: Joins Hyperledger). The Hyperledger project is a global collaboration, hosted by The Linux Foundation, including leaders in finance, banking, IoT, supply chain, manufacturing and technology

Oracle Blockchain Cloud Service is a new offering that is part of Oracle’s comprehensive platform-as-a service, more particularly part of our modern Application Development portfolio. In alignment with Oracle PaaS strategy, each new service can be deployed in its own right to deploy for customer projects, but is very much designed to deliver best value add in combination with other Oracle PaaS, SaaS and on-premise Applications, leveraging our IaaS components and choice of deployment.

Two other key capabilities of Oracle Blockchain Cloud Services are the possibility to set up a turn-key sandbox environment for corporate IT developers and ISVs and the ease of on-boarding and connecting members and creating and supporting smart contracts. Both will enable you as a partners and your customers to kick off internal projects very easily and promote these to a production environment quickly and at scale.

To get you up to speed on blockchain, we would recommend the following article: What Is Blockchain Technology? A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners. And visit the Blockchain pages on oracle.com for technical explanation and listing of different use cases.

Interested to learn more about Oracle Blockchain Cloud Service and what it could mean to your customers? Stay tuned as we will release more in-depth and technical documentation soon. For further information please contact:

  • Joost Volker, Director Cloud Platform for Connect & Extend, running Blockchain Incubation Programme
  • Thrasos Thrasyvoulou, Business Development Dir, Cloud Platform for Application Development

Some random thoughts on OOW17 by Arturo Viveros

December 6, 2017 Leave a comment

 image

Oracle Open World 2017 has come and gone already, but it left behind some really interesting points worth revisiting.

The conference spans so much, but I want to focus mainly on the topics related to my own expertise (Integration, Java, Application Development). So let’s cut to the chase and take a look at the highlights:

· Focus is on Developers – the Java & Open Source movements seem stronger than ever, with JavaOne recovering a leading role this year and OracleCode summoning enthusiastic crowds on its first appearance at Open World. Also, Oracle has visibly placed a lot of importance on programs such as the Developer Community space, Developer Champion award, etc.

  • Oracle PaaS has finally broken through – with increased maturity in most of the services, plenty of customer success stories and some nice improvements to the licensing model, PaaS adoption has become increasingly viable. This is an especially important moment for integration-focused partners, as in my opinion those who are able to better cope with the paradigm shift will be able to take full advantage of the growing market.
  • Modern Architectures are at the Center of Innovation Read the complete article here. & Get the Oracle OpenWorld presentations and demos here.

My key takeaways from Oracle OpenWorld & JavaOne 2017 by Luis Augusto Weir

December 4, 2017 Leave a comment

I’ve just literally arrived from Oracle Open World and JavaOne 2017 and my head still hurts with so many interesting announcements and cool new things I want to get my hands on and learn. This blogpost provides a short summary of my impressions and key takeaways from both events.

General overview:

This year OOW and JavaOne was full of changes from previous ones. For starting most of the sessions took place between Moscone South, Moscone West and the Marriot Marquis, as opposed to all over the place. I understand that this was mainly due to renovations that took place in Moscone which meant that more rooms were available.
JavaOne this year took place in Moscone West (as opposed to Hilton Union Square). First thing that really stroke me was the vast amount of people that seemed to have attended the event (see below tweet from Adam Bien). Not sure if more people attended JavaOne than OOW, but my first observation is that sessions in JavaOne were better attended than those in OOW (at least in the areas am interested on and from what I could see -this is a personal view so don’t get offended if you disagree).
My second observation from this year’s event was the increased focus to the Developers audience. A clear change of direction from previous years (in my view for good), and it shows that Oracle is committed and trying hard to engage the broader developer communities (not just Oracle’s traditional one). In my view Oracle is taking solid and promising first steps towards achieving this goal and hopefully this article highlights some of them.
