SOA & BPM Community Newsletter December 2016

Dear SOA & BPM Partner Community,

The annual PaaS Partner Community Forum will take place March 27th & 28th & 29th 2016 Croatia. Architects, Practice Managers, Consultants and Developers get the latest PaaS updates from the Oracle Product Management Team. Join us for a week full of keynotes, breakouts, hands-on sessions, community day and networking opportunities.

Oracle SaaS solutions can be tailored to the customer’s user experience by branding, flexfields or workflow configuration. Oracle PaaS is designed to Enrich and Differentiate Oracle’s SaaS solutions. Customers use PaaS to analyze, extend, connect and secure SaaS. To leverage this service opportunity a Partner Resource kit Oracle PaaS: Designed to Enrich Oracle SaaS (membership required) is available.

Our friends from down under just release two videos, one on SOA Cloud Service and the other one how they use Process Cloud Service within Rubicon Red. An excellent sample or the use cases to automate e-mail driven processes with PCS and Document Cloud Service. Oracle Partners can purchase PaaS Cloud Services with a discount up to 75%.

In our last section Architecture & PaaS4SaaS the UX team highlights Employee Enablement with Oracle PaaS for SaaS – Human Resources and the R11 UX HIGHLIGHTS

For a short summery of our key monthly information watch the Fusion Middleware & PaaS Partner Updates on YouTube. The December edition of the PaaSPartner Update contains details about Partner Opportunities in the Cloud, Enrich SaaS with PaaS and the upcoming community webcast about the Partner Community Resources and how you get a free PaaS trial on December 20th 2016. Merry Christmas!

Red Summer School is on! – run a PaaS workshop for your university!

image

Want to recruit new employees? Want to try PaaS? Run a Summer School training like Link Consulting.

Link Consulting’s Red Summer School on Oracle technologies on the Cloud is on! Teams Alfa, Beta and Delta have been working hard, mentored by our BPM and ECM business manager, Oracle ACE Associate and founder of Red Mavericks, José Rodrigues.

Earlier on this week they learnt the concept of REST APIs using Postman and SoapUI and testing interaction with Twitter API.

They then started working on Database Cloud Service, creating the data model that supports the voting application they’ve started working on today (that allows people to choose the artists that will be performing at a given event – cool, right?) and displaying the REST services on the transactions of these data.

During the last couple of days José introduced students to Oracle ICS and PCS. They built integration between Custom REST API and Gmail API and also with Twitter, this time based on Oracle ICS, and created a simple business process for car loan approvals.

José is satisfied with his students’ motivation: “The students are experimenting these platforms for the first time and really seem to enjoy what they’re doing. At the moment they are starting to connect the pieces and are truly enthusiastic about it.”

You go, teams! It’s been a close race so far. Who will win it? Read the complete article here.

Interested to run a Summer School for your university or customer? Feel free to contact myself.

Oracle provides beacon of hope to American Heart Association event by Edith Mireles

clip_image002

Oracle’s investment in emerging technology is nothing new. We want to bring the best in user experience to the Oracle Applications Cloud, and emerging technology like wearables and Internet of Things (IoT) are part of that strategy as they come more to the fore.

So it was no accident when Oracle, a major sponsor of the Bay Area Heart Walk in September, looked to the Oracle Applications User Experience (OAUX) team to lead a project to build a smartphone application that used IoT-style beacons around the course.

Photo by DJ Ursal, Oracle Applications User Experience

Participants start off on the Bay Area Heart Walk Event.

Working with Oracle Volunteers, DJ Ursal, Senior Director, Product Management User Experience, led the cross-functional, cross-organizational team that developed the app, which communicated with the beacons placed at strategic points to show users where they were on the course and other pertinent information. He developed the app with constant thought about how user experience translates to the overall business of Oracle. “You have to look in a very strategic way as to where ideas can translate and what use cases we can come across,” he said. “It’s not just coming up with ideas and use cases; the challenge is finding the real value and viability of it.”

Seems simple, right? OAUX Group Vice President Jeremy Ashley takes it a step further, saying the real problem facing potential users of IoT was not being able to set up a beacon easily. “A very simple and direct app like Heart Walk allowed you to get a beacon, place it somewhere, and be able to program it with an iPad,” he said. “Anybody could walk around with the tablet, put [a beacon] in place, program it, and connect it to an enterprise system.”

The team worked off the American Heart Association’s well-received mobile app presented at Oracle OpenWorld 2014, which bounced off a beacon at the OAUX demo station to give customers information about the demos and an interactive map as they walked around the conference. Ursal’s team delivered the components for the beacons to be integrated into the cloud platform for Heart Walk. Read the complete article here.
