Tips and Tricks for Oracle SOA Suite by Oracle A-Team, Engineering, and Customers–Webcast January 12th 2016

January 8, 2016 2 Comments

Webcast on Tuesday, January 12, 2016 9:00 am | Pacific Standard Time (San Francisco, GMT-08:00) | 1 hr

Join us as we recreate one of the most popular Oracle Open World sessions around the Oracle SOA Suite and deliver it to the world via webinar format. We are hoping this webinar will be the first of many and we plan to expand this into a series to create a more robust information sharing community around SOA Suite, including the Oracle product management and engineering teams, A-team, customers and partners. For this first session, we are delivering an expanded version of the OOW “Tips and Tricks for Oracle SOA Suite” session, which is always delivered to a packed room. In the webinar version, we will be able to provide a little more time to each of the speakers and topics, which are:
– Joe Kardamis from The Sherwin-Williams Company, talking about agile development methodology with SOA
– Antony Reynolds from the Oracle Service (SOA) & Cloud Integration Product Management team, talking about error handling and managing your dehydration store
– Sherwood Zern of the Oracle A-Team with some common issues seen in Oracle Service Bus implementations
– David Shaffer (dave@middleworks.com) of Middleworks, sharing tips from the SOA engineering team on working with large schemas in JDeveloper’s XSLT mapping tool
The content for this session is fast, focused and highly technical, with extra materials and links to documentation provided in the slides for attendees future reference. We encourage you to come with your related project questions and ask them during the Q&A periods. If you are working actively with the Oracle SOA Suite, we guarantee you will walk away with some truly useful information! Note: Total attendees for the webinar may be limited, and since we are not sure how popular this event will be, we encourage you to pre-register and join the webinar a few minutes early. All who register will receive invitations to future related events and the ability to access a recording of the webinar in case you have any trouble connecting.

Create a SOA Application in JDeveloper 12c Using Maven SOA Plug-In by Daniel Rodriguez

December 24, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002Maven is a commonly used build system for java projects. It provide benefits ranging from standardizing project layouts, to automated dependency fetching, to automated builds and Maven.  Oracle provides a pretty comprehensive document outlining how to build and create Oracle SOA and BPM projects using Maven. See this article that documents some simple steps to get up and running using Maven. However, when running my first Maven project I encountered some unexpected errors. Maven could not find any SOA archetypes and was also unable to load every dependency. As I found, being able to create, build, and deploy SOA and BPM projects using Maven requires some initial pre-work. Once the set-up is done, the Oracle doc mentioned above will make more sense and will execute successfully.

Why Maven in SOA Applications?

Unlike Ant, Maven does not require developers to specify every command to achieve a goal. Moreover, Maven’s structure in the form of a POM file allows dependencies to be managed easily. However, the biggest benefit is that Maven in JDeveloper provides complete a life-cycle process. Each goal incorporates the previous one and adds functionality. For example, if we run the mvn test command, it will execute the compile, package and deploy commands before running each test on the composite. The idea is to provide a foundation for continuous development and integration. A single command can compile, package, deploy and run all test cases: saving you time.

Gradle provides much of the same functionality of Maven but on a different format. It is implemented using Groovy and, as a result, some of its scripts are much shorter than Maven’s. Unfortunately, Gradle is not native to JDeveloper at this moment.

Maven Goals

Documentation lists five goals for the SOA Maven Plug-in. However, The plug-in itself lists six goals.

  1. compile: Compiles the Application
  2. package: Creates a SAR file of the composite
  3. deploy: Deploys the SOA composite
  4. test: Runs all test created for the SOA composite
  5. undeploy: Removes the composite
  6. help: Provides a list of goals and their corresponding commands.

The help goal is the only goal not listed in the actual Oracle document but displayed on the plug-in itself. While the “help” command may not be a “Goal”, It provides useful information regarding goals, commands, and what each command tries to achieve. Read the complete article here.

SOA Suite 12c monitoring with EM 12c Cloud Control by Michel Schildmeijer

December 23, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002Good monitoring is knowing how your systems and application are doing at past, present and future time. There are many  monitoring tools & solutions at the market, all with pro’s and cons. Building monitoring takes time and effort but in the end gives you the benefit of less disturbance and more guarantee of business continuity.

At the customers I work for, I often implemented Oracle’s Enterprise manager 12c Cloud Control to build a monitoring framework. In this blog I will tell about what needs to be done to build such a framework.

Pre Requirements

Before start building a solution, make sure you have:

  • The proper monitoring pack licenses; for SOA Suite that will be:
    • The WebLogic Diagnostics & Monitoring Pack
    • The SOA Suite Diagnostics & Montitoring Pack
  • Agents installed on every physical (or virtual ) host where WebLogic / SOA is running

Building Steps

Deploying Agents to Targets

If not already done so, agents need to be deployed to the hostst were middleware is running. I will not discuss this any further because this is more Enterprise Manager generic.

Discover Middleware Targets

Discovering Middleware Targets is just as it is as with other Targets. Read the complete article here.

MTOM using SoapUI and OSB by Martien van den Akker

December 22, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image001MTOM (Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism) is incredibly hard… to find practical information about, on SoapUI and OSB. There are loads of articles. Like:

But I need to process documents that are send using MTOM to my service. And to be able to test it, I need to create a working example of a SoapUI project to do exactly that. Also about SoapUI and MTOM there are loads of examples, and it is quite simple really. But I had a more complex wsdl that I was able to use for Soap with Attachments (SwA) wich is also simple really. But how to connect those two in a simple working example? Well, actually, it turns out not so hard either… So bottom-line, MTOM with SoapUI and OSB is not so hard. If you know how, that is.
So let’s work this out on a step-by-step basis.

XSD/WSDL

I’ll start with a simple XSD: Read the complete article here.

Why does DB-adapter return duplicate rows? by Jon Petter Hjulstad

December 21, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002Here are some DB adapter tips regarding duplicate rows.

The DB Adapter has some nice features, but sometimes you can get fooled. One of my colleagues experiences this one day. The query returned the same row – just repeated many times.

The reason for this is because the primary key was not defined correctly.

The good thing is that the documentation describes this – and more: Oracle documentation

For tables where primary key is defined – this should not be a problem, but in cases where it is not defined or you are querying a view – you would need to specify a primary key yourself. A couple of relevant notes here:

  • If you do not provide a valid primary key, then the unique constraint is not guaranteed, and this could result in possible loss of messages at runtime. That is, rows with duplicate primary key values are likely to be lost.
  • You should ensure that you primary key is less than 100 bytes.
  • Oracle recommends that you use varchar instead of char for primary key columns
