PaaS (Process & Integration) Partner Community Newsletter December 2017

Dear PaaS Partner Community,

Once a year we host the PaaS Partner Community Forum, your opportunity to become a champion in the latest PaaS cloud services from Oracle. On the first conference day the ACEs and the community will share best practices and customer success stories. During keynotes including live demos the Oracle team will introduce PaaS innovations like blockchain or machine learning. On the third day you can choose between four conference tracks Enterprise Process & Integration &API Management and Application Development with Microservices & Containers and Mobile & Chatbot & Content Management and Innovation: blockchaine & machine learning. The last two days of the conference you can code & try the cloud services hands-on! Most important the conference is an excellent networking opportunity with Oracle partners, ACEs, product development and the A&C team. Since we host the Partner Community Forum the conference was always booked out, secure your seat today!

Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) including a partner resource kit. Special thanks to Niall Commiskey for the nice OIC articles series Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) – the Grand Tour & Integration Insight in Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) & Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) – the cloud platform for Integration and Automation. OIC pricing is based on OCPU want to know much it is? Try the Cloud cost estimator which also provides sample configurations.

There are more than five reasons why our joint customer base should choose Oracle’s PaaS. One of them is Oracle’s third generation API Platform cloud service. Another reason is Oracle’s support of standards also for APIs.

Thanks to the community for sharing all the Integration articles: Integrate Sugar CRM & Eloqua in few hours using Oracle Integration Cloud Service & Create Connection using external WSDL in Oracle Integration Cloud Service & PaaS – How to setup an Oracle Integration Cloud instance & Enable WebService test client on SOA/BPM production mode environments & Good SOA Pipeline Plumbing Gregory Hughlett & SOASuite 12c: keep running instances using ANT & OSB: Disable Chunked Streaming Mode recommendation & Oracle Management Cloud: Find SOA Suite issues quick and easy

Defiantly will service you a pizza one day! User Interfaces are key for user adoption, as BPM is about human based processes it’s even more important. Thanks to the Mark for Best Practices in UI and Process Designs. With the BPM 12c REST APIs an customized UI can be build easily.

In our last section is it all about the future and innovation. Machine learning is at the forth front of innovation. Another example are innovative use cases of IoT, Mexico City is a great example. To achieve innovation our UX team released new UX tools.

Some random thoughts on OOW17 by Arturo Viveros

 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 Oracle Open World 2017 contributions in a nutshell by Sven Bernhardt

OOW 17 is behind us and is was again an amazing and informative experience to attend one of the world biggest and relevant IT conferences.

Highlights from Oracle OpenWorld 2017 by Juliana Button

Returning from the excitement of Oracle OpenWorld, it’s good to pause and reflect on the highlights of the major Oracle event of the year. There were a significant number of key announcements across the entire product stack – IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and DaaS. With our focus on IaaS and PaaS we have shared a few of the key take-aways below.

What was also noticeable this year, was the level of engagement from partners and customers talking about their use-cases and implementations, sharing their findings and experiences with Oracle Cloud PaaS. It is exciting to see the momentum building and the great value customers are starting to derive from their cloud-based implementations.

  • Session Replays
