Mobile & Mobile Cloud Service hands-on training by product management – August 17-21 2015 Lisbon

clip_image002Trainers: Grant Ronald & Frank Nimphius

Duration 4 Days

A successful mobile business is like an iceberg on open sea. Only the smallest portion of a mobile application resides on the mobile device where it renders the visual user interface and executes the client logic. The bigger part, and the heavy lifting, is hidden as infrastructure services on remote servers where it performs tasks like providing mobile optimized APIs, integrate remote SOAP and REST services, manage mobile users for an application or use case, store content and similar common mobile tasks. On the public cloud, infrastructure that provides the mobile backend to mobile applications is referred to as MbaaS (Mobile backend as a Service).  Oracle Mobile Cloud Service is the MbaaS solution by Oracle. Oracle MCS is a new Oracle public cloud offering that releases close to the time of the EMEA Oracle Fusion Middleware (OFM) Summer Camp in Lisbon 2015. The Mobile Product Management team at Oracle takes this, the upcoming first release of Oracle MCS and the OFM Summer Camp 2015, as an opportunity to offer a 4 1/2 day training on Oracle MCS. Beside of learning all about Oracle MCS, attendees will have the opportunity to try and experience Oracle MCS in a hands-on workshop using the Oracle MCS Cloud portal UI, Google Postman, Curl and Oracle Mobile Application Framework (MAF). This training enables you to use Oracle MCS in your own mobile projects and provides all information you need to know to immediately get started.

The Internet of Things Will Be Huge, Is Your IT Infrastructure Ready to Support It? by Harish Venkat

June 8, 2015 Leave a comment

clip_image002IDC predicts that the worldwide IoT market will grow from $1.3 trillion in 2013 to $3.04 trillion in 2020 (1). IDC also states that within three years, 50% of IT networks will transition from having excess capacity to handle the additional IoT devices to being network constrained. (2)
As further evidence, analyst firm 451 Research reported an increase in M&A spending in 2014 that pushed ‘Internet of Things’-related deal-making past the $14bn mark, a fortyfold increase in acquirer spending compared to 2013. (3)
This rate of growth cannot be ignored. IoT is inevitable and will create tremendous opportunity for a new wave of services built around connected devices. It will also pose challenges to IT and infrastructure leaders for the following reasons:

  • The volume of data that will come off devices will be enormous and capable of completely overwhelming network infrastructures.
  • IT infrastructures will need to support these vast amounts of data.
  • Solutions that aren’t fully integrated will fail to deliver needed data and analytic capabilities. All devices will need to be integrated with all other devices, so seamless integration of applications and technologies will be critical.
  • Realizing business value from IoT will be dependent upon scalable and flexible infrastructures that can integrate and secure data received from various components and devices.

How can you prepare? A good first step is to modernize IT infrastructures and upgrade legacy architectures. As is the case with other technology trends like mobile, big data, and social, IT needs to be agile and strongly aligned with the business. This means anticipating and responding to business needs quickly, providing real-time information that informs decision-making, and being scalable to support planned and unplanned growth.

Service Bus 12c: Retrieving Username from HTTP Basic authentication token by Sven Bernhardt

June 7, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image001Using HTTP Basic authentication is a common mechanism to check user’s authenticity, when creating REST-enabled API’s to prevent applications and it’s functionalities from unathorized access. Service Bus 12c (SB) supports this authentication method by using a OWSM security policy. The corresponding authentication information are transported in the HTTP header.

In some cases, for example when only user-relevant data should be determined when querying information from Enterprise Information Systems (EIS), the information about the current user that are available  in the HTTP header might be helpful. As an alternative the username information could be transported in the payload of each Service Call, e.g. as a query parameter.

In the following I will describe, which steps are needed to extract the username from the HTTP header, so transporting the same information twice, in the header and the payload, can be avoided.

Starting point is a simple HelloWorld service, which expects a valid HTTP Basic authentication token. In the example a corresponding OWSM policy is used to realize this. The service as such has an operation “greet” that takes no parameter. As result, it returns a personalized salution based on the passed authorization header. Read the complete article here.

OSB 12c – Pipeline Template by Vivek Garg

June 6, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002As we know Oracle SOA 12c comes with lot of new features, one of that is service bus is merged with SOA Suite i.e. we need not to use separate IDE to build service bus projects. In 12c we use Jdeveloper to build service bus projects.

In previous post we discuss about SOA templates which helps to improve developer productivity, similarly in service bus we have pipeline template. We will discuss about pipeline template in this post, we see how to create pipeline template and how to use pipeline template.

A pipeline template depicts the general message flow and we can generate concrete message flow using this pipeline template.

One point which we need to keep in mind that we cannot create a pipeline template in Oracle Service Bus Console.

How to create pipeline template

Now we see how to create pipeline template from Jdeveloper. To create pipeline template, create a new project and choose “Service Bus project” option. Also provide the project name and click on finish. Read the complete article here.

SOA 12c – EDN – Mapping to Custom Topic with Weblogic JMS

EDN documentation says:

You can create additional JMS topics (Oracle WebLogic Server JMS or AQ JMS) and map different event types to these additional JMS topics in Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

In this post, we will see how to do this mapping of Business Event to Custom Topic.

This involves 2 steps:

  • Create a new Topic.
  • Modify the business event mapping in EM.

Creating a new Topic

Navigate to Services –> Messaging –> JMS Modules –> SoaJMSModule in Weblogic Administration console. Read the complete article here .

B2B 12c – HTTP Generic Channel with transport callout by Bruno Neves Alves

June 4, 2015 Leave a comment

 

First of all, season’s greetings to everyone!

Then, let me introduce this post saying that, already in the version 11g, a generic HTTP listening channel for message posting to B2B using the HTTP protocol was available. Any configured trading partner could use this generic channel to post messages to B2B.

A single common URL was available by default:
http://%5Bhost-name%5D:%5Bhost-port%5D/b2b/httpReceiver

In this way, a single listening channel is able to serve multiple trading partners for every HTTP communications with B2B.

When this channel is used, the process follows the default steps for message processing, namely:

Sender identification (i.e. using HTTP Header);

Document protocol/version/type identification ;

Agreement identification;

Message processing (parsing and validation);

Synchronous delivery to a back-end application.

The only differentiation factor is: since this channel is generic and not configurable or even available on the list of listening channels in B2B console, make it unavailable for channel callout configuration.

This has now changed with the 12c version.

With the version 12c of B2B is now possible to define a generic HTTP transport callout and associate it with a specific transport level callout.

As of now, this is driven by an B2B configuration Fusion Middleware property that needs to be added on Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control

Installation of Oracle B2B 12c by Tiago Teixeira

June 3, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002In this post I will quickly go through the steps that are necessary in order to install Oracle B2B and create a SOA domain that you can use.
I will consider that the installation will be used for a development environment and that it is done on the Linux machine.
Note that prior to the installation of B2B you will need to have machine running a Database and perform the installation of Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c Infrastructure and of the Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c SOA Suite and Business Process Management on the same machine where you will be installing B2B. You will also need to have the latest Oracle JDK 7 Update installed on that same machine.
The necessary software can be downloaded using Oracle eDelivery:

  • V44959-01.zip – Latest Oracle JDK 7 Update for Linux x86-64 (Prerequisite)
  • V44416-01.zip – Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c (12.1.3.0.0) Infrastructure (Prerequisite)
  • V44420-01.zip – Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c (12.1.3.0.0) SOA Suite and Business Process Management (Prerequisite)
  • V44421-01.zip – Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c (12.1.3.0.0) B2B and Healthcare

To install Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c Infrastructure please refer to:
Oracle Fusion Middleware Installing and Configuring the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure
To install Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c SOA Suite and Business Process Management please refer to:
Oracle Fusion Middleware Installing and Configuring Oracle SOA Suite and Business Process Management
I’m considering that a new domain will be configured from scratch. If a SOA domain was already created previously a few of the next steps can be ignored and the existing domain can be extend to include B2B. If that is the case, for the next steps, remember to shutdown any running instances of Weblogic Server.

     1. The first part of the installation will be to install the software:

After you have downloaded the V44421-01.zip file unzip it: Read the complete article here.

Inside Fusion Middleware 12c: Increasing Scalability with JMS Adapter 12c by Stefan Koser

June 2, 2015 1 Comment

 

clip_image002JMS Adapter (also known as Oracle JCA Adapter for JMS) is a component available with Oracle SOA Suite or Oracle Service Bus (OSB) which provides a very powerful way to use  the Java Messaging Service (JMS) for sending or receiving messages.

The most important goals for optimizing an SOA Suite or OSB environment are to make sure that

  • Each node of the cluster makes effective use of Java threads and other resources.
  • The cluster will be able to scale efficiently when adding new nodes.

In this article, we will show how JMS Adapter in the new release 12c can be configured in high throughput scenarios to use much fewer threads that in earlier versions. This means, that adding new nodes to the cluster will not require additional threads in all other nodes. As a result, a cluster with many nodes will perform and scale much better.

There are 2 main use cases of JMS Adapter with SOA Suite or OSB:

  • Inbound activation of a composite by receiving messages from a JMS destination (queue or topic)
  • Publishing messages from a composite to a JMS destination

We will focus in this article on the first use case for receiving messages. Only in that scenario – for listening to a queue, the activation framework of the Java EE Connector Architecture (JCA) layer will start a number of threads for JMS Adapter.

First, we will describe how many threads will be created by default or in versions prior to 12c, and then how this changes when using the new feature available with 12c.

Default thread creation for JMS Adapter

For the first example, we will assume a scenario with a 2-node SOA cluster where a Uniform Distributed Queue (UDQ) “jms/TestQueue” is defined and one SOA composite with an inbound JMS Adapter is listening to this queue. See line 2 of the JMS destination overview in Weblogic server in the following table:

With the default behavior, the number of threads used to read messages from this queue in each Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is one. This is derived from the default of the corresponding configuration parameter: Read the complete article here.
