Integrate Oracle SOA Healthcare and Oracle SOA Suite back-end composites across segregated domains by Bruno Neves Alves

June 4, 2016 Leave a comment

clip_image001When implementing a composite with JDeveloper, one of the available adapters – since early versions of the 11g release of Oracle SOA Suite – is the Healthcare Adapter. This adapter allows to connect, both as exposed service (inbound) and as reference (outbound), to an Oracle SOA Suite for Healthcare Integration (SSHI) installation enabling document trading with other applications in the healthcare ecosystem.

The SSHI is mostly used for  HL7 documents exchange between back-end healthcare solutions and its satellite applications. However, in some other cases, SSHI is even implemented as a hub for document exchange, connecting heterogeneous healthcare applications.

The Healthcare adapter comes in two integration type flavors:

  • Default – in memory integration;
  • JMS – integration based on AQ or JMS queues.

The first one, based in memory, allows the SSHI application to integrate with the composites through the Healthcare Adapter using the JVM memory – what makes the integration quite efficient and fast – however, with one limitation: both SSHI and the SOA composites have to be deployed in the same domain.

Now, one of the best practices that should be taken in consideration when architecturing a large scale integration platform with SSHI and SOA Suite is to deploy the SSHI and the SOA back-end composite application in separated domains, favoring:

  • Tuning and configuration – domain configuration isolation is key to reach the sweet spot in such implementation. The domain where the composites are being deployed will likely demand different configuration compared with the SSHI dedicated one. This segregation will allow to apply different tuning strategies to one another.
  • Database partitioning – The fact that the SSHI and back-end composite application are persisting into separated SOA_INFRA schemas promotes separated database grow management strategies. This empowers an adequate data partitioning and purging strategies for each of the domains.

As explained, for an in memory integration, both domains needs to rely over the same JVM, therefore, separating the domains will presuppose two separated JVMs leaving the Default options as unusable.

This article demonstrates how the JMS integration can be implemented between SSHI and the back-end application available from two separated domains.
For questions of demonstrability it will follow a simplistic SSHI as a hub implementation. Because of that, the article additionally covers all the necessary steps to implement the integration scenario between two healthcare MLLP endpoints through a composite back-end.

Ingredients
  • 2 separated SOA Suite domains with cross domain authentication active
  • 1 inbound Weblogic JMS queue and connection factory
  • 1 outbound Weblogic JMS  queue and connection factory
  • 1 composite with two Healthcare Adapters, one as exposed service and another one as reference
  • 1 SSHI MLLP inbound endpoint
  • 1 SSHI MLLP outbound endpoint
  • 1 “Send to Internal” Internal Delivery Channel
  • 1 “Receive from Internal” Internal Delivery Channel

OSB 12c – Database Polling using DB adapter by Vivek Garg

May 26, 2016 Leave a comment

 

clip_image001Oracle introduced couple of new features in 12c version which is recently launched. For OSB, the major shift that we saw in 12c is that now we can use Jdeveloper to do the development which we use to do through OEPE (Eclipse). With that change, we can leverage the existing technology adapter in OSB as well which we use to have in SOA. In OSB 11g version, in case of Database interaction, we use to create DB adapter in Jdeveloper and later import all required files to OEPE and generate required services from that, but in this new version-12c as we development in Jdeveloper itself so we need not to follow same steps again, we can add the DB adapter directly in OSB project and do required operations.

In this post, we show you how to use DB adapter in OSB project. For that we have created a table in database, we poll the data from that table and write that information to one file.

First of all we need to create a new OSB project, so first create a new project and then in composite.xml file, right click on proxy service lane, choose “Insert Adapters” and select Database to add DB adapter.

Provide name to adapter and click on next. In next window, choose DB connection (In our case it is local as we read the data from local table) and click on browse button to select the outbound connection pool created earlier for DB adapter. Read the complete article here.

Automated Unittesting of XQueries in Oracle OSB by Pascal Brokmeier

May 24, 2016 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002In order to support a more agile project environment, OPITZ CONSULTING developed a Java/JUnit based SOA Unit Testing Framework. Among others, the framework was capable of using the Oracle libraries to run XQuery tests locally and verify their correctness. Over the course of time, Oracle released 12c and with it, changed its xquery files. A new extension (.xqy instead of .xq) was introduced and with it additional syntax. Oracle added a(:: OracleAnnotationVersion "1.0" ::) . After this, the testing framework needed to be updated to support such tags. Without an update, executing a query with the above annotation gave the following error: Read the complete article here.

HCM Atom Feed Subscriber using SOA Cloud Service by Jack Desai

May 22, 2016 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002Introduction

HCM Atom feeds provide notifications of Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management (HCM) events and are tightly integrated with REST services. When an event occurs in Oracle Fusion HCM, the corresponding Atom feed is delivered automatically to the Atom server. The feed contains details of the REST resource on which the event occurred. Subscribers who consume these Atom feeds use the REST resources to retrieve additional information about the resource.

For more information on Atom, please refer to this.

This post focuses on consuming and processing HCM Atom feeds using Oracle Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Cloud Service. Oracle SOA Cloud Service provides a PaaS computing platform solution for running Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle Service Bus, and Oracle API Manager in the cloud. For more information on SOA Cloud Service, please refer this.

Oracle SOA is the industry’s most complete and unified application integration and SOA solution. It transforms complex application integration into agile and re-usable service-based connectivity to speed time to market, respond faster to business requirements, and lower costs.. SOA facilitates the development of enterprise applications as modular business web services that can be easily integrated and reused, creating a truly flexible, adaptable IT infrastructure.

For more information on getting started with Oracle SOA, please refer this. For developing SOA applications using SOA Suite, please refer this.

Main Article

Atom feeds enable you to keep track of any changes made to feed-enabled resources in Oracle HCM Cloud. For any updates that may be of interest for downstream applications, such as new hire, terminations, employee transfers and promotions, Oracle HCM Cloud publishes Atom feeds. Your application will be able to read these feeds and take appropriate action.

Atom Publishing Protocol (AtomPub) allows software applications to subscribe to changes that occur on REST resources through published feeds. Updates are published when changes occur to feed-enabled resources in Oracle HCM Cloud. These are the following primary Atom feeds:

Employee Feeds

New hire
Termination
Employee update

Assignment creation, update, and end date

Work Structures Feeds (Creation, update, and end date)

Organizations
Jobs
Positions
Grades
Locations

The above feeds can be consumed programmatically. In this post, Node.js is implemented as one of the solutions consuming “Employee New Hire” feeds, but design and development is similar for all the supported objects in HCM. Read the complete article here.
