Fusion Middleware Partner Community Forum – what you missed in Faro!

Thanks Simon for the excellent blog article about the Community Forum. Very nice summery with all the highlights of the Forum. You wrote also blog post? Let us know! Thanks to your wonderful feedback – highly appreciated all the nice e-mails I received!

Thanks again for the wonderful week in Vilamoura last week! I really enjoyed the sessions and networking opportunities. The information from practically every session is most likely to be very valuable for a number of customers and of course, my colleagues. Arnoud Roth –  interaccess

Jurgen – again many thanks for organising the forum – my first. FMW forum appearance. It was an amazing experience to meet both Capgemini colleagues from other territories and other guys from other companies – the community has a very strong bond and I have no doubt I can turn to my new friends/contacts I have made for advice, guidance and coaching. I have already highlighted to my senior management my key “take aways” – to explore ways of how we can integrate FMW into their our client’s landscapes.  Frank Roche – Capgemini

Wickes PotgieterMany thanks once again for a cool Community Forum AND  BPM boot camp. Wonderful location, great organisation and high value knowledge transfer. Tony Albrecht – RPC UK Ltd.

SOA Community Newsletter February 2013

Dear SOA partner community member

In this newsletter edition we highlighted many new online demos for SOA, BPM and OEP. Being a partner, you can use the same demo systems that Oracle pre-sales consultants use every day for customers. Out of the box demos including a flow & script have been updated. Demos are key in the sales process! To access the DSS demo systems please visit OPN and feel free to talk to your Partner Expert!

With the rise of big and fast data SOA and pattern matching can play a key role, make sure you attend our webcast and get the latest whitepaper. To design SOA architectures, OASIS published a SOA reference architecture and EAIESB a SOA BPEL 2.0 Poster. If you work on SOA project make sure you follow the C2B2 SOA Tuning webcast series and I recommend you to try the SOA Testing utilities.

In the BPM section we published new papers such as Transforming Customer Experience,Cooking Up Successful BPMand BPM in Utilities. In addition to this the BPM DSS Demos to extend Siebel are available. Mark Nelson published a blog post about Collecting diagnostic information for BPM and Jan van Zoggel about Integration of Oracle BPM and Oracle UCM/WCC. Please read these publications and make yourself updated from these shared knowledge.

I will be looking forward to see you all in Portugal for the Fusion Middleware Partner Community Forum 2013.

How Data and BPM are married to get the right information to the right people at the right time by Léon Smiers
