The O-box SOA Appliance – launched at UKOUG Tech13!

In Manchester, UK, last month Simon Haslam and Lonneke Dikmans (for Veriton and Vennster), launched their new company O-box very first productc Products.

The O-box SOA Appliance, put simply, “Oracle SOA in a box”. The hardware is Oracle’s tried and trusted Oracle Database Appliance (now with up to 48 Intel cores!) and this is coupled with O-box provisioning software and its very easy “2 stick install” approach. This gives you fully HA, secured, appropriately sized and production-ready SOA platform in just a few hours!

The SOA installation itself is built to best practices (including those in Oracle’s Enterprise Deployment Guides), is fully documented and is fully tested. It allows you to implement Oracle SOA Suite for your customers within a fraction of the time, at a fraction of the cost and at lower risk than doing it yourself.

O-box is looking to work with Oracle SOA Specialized Partners so if you think this product can help your SOA offering (and we think it can!) then please contact Lonneke.Dikmans@oboxproducts.com. Alternatively O-box will be part of the Partner Exchange at the OFM Partner Community Forum 2014 in Malta next month so you can talk to the team there.

Improving Performance via Parallelism in Oracle Event Processing Pipelines with High-Availability by Mauricio Arango

This posting explains how to use parallelism to improve performance of Oracle Event Processing (OEP) applications with active-active high-availability (HA) deployments. Parallelism is exploited for performance gain in each one of the server instances of an HA configuration. This is achieved by identifying sections of an application’s processing pipeline that can operate in parallel, and, therefore, can be mapped to separate processing threads. Both pipeline and independent query parallelism are described.

Pipeline Parallelism

A pipeline architecture has inherent concurrency because each of its stages works in parallel on different data elements flowing through it. For example, in the pipeline in figure 1, if each stage is assigned its own processing thread, the following actions can occur in concurrently: input JMS adapter reads event #3 from a JMS topic, CQL query processor handles event #2, and output JMS adapter writes event #1 to a queue.

Figure 1. OEP Pipeline with three concurrent stages

figure1

Although OEP HA pipelines are limited to one thread per stage, significant performance gains can be achieved by running each stage in a separate thread as compared to running all stages on one thread or in a number of threads smaller than the number of pipeline stages.

A key constraint in OEP when using active-active HA (see Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer’s Guide for Oracle Event Processing 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7) for Eclipse, section 24) is that it requires the input streams to both the primary and the secondary instances to be identical and to maintain the same event ordering as events flow through the OEP Event Processing Network (EPN). This constrain limits the EPN topology to be either a linear pipeline, starting from an input adapter and ending with an output adapter, or a tree where, each node with downstream branching replicates every event to each of its branches.

The event ordering requirement also limits to one the number of threads assigned to each stage of the EPN. Having more than one thread in one stage, for example, in an input JMS adapter, would fail to assure that the order of events entering the following stage, such as input channel, is the same in both the primary and secondary instances.

Monitoring large flow traces with Oracle SOA Suite by Martin Günther

End-to-end monitoring of BPEL process instances acro ss composite borders is a great feature of Oracle SOA/Business Process Management Suite 11g. It is shown in nearly every PreSales presentation and when you were used to know SOA Suite 10g or to work with other kinds of distributed, heterogenous systems it is a real improvement.

But when you implement large process chains you might realize that the newly won process transparency can raise new challenges. Imagine you have a root process which creates several instances of sub-processes. In such a case without doing any extra work you will get one flow trace for the process and all of its sub-process instances. For large process chains you need to consider the following facts:

  • Transparency: Although it shows an end-to-end view of the whole execution tree, trying to find a faulted sub-process might be a real challenge. It doesn’t matter if you start the search from the root process instance or from one of the sub-processes – the flow trace always displays all components of the execution context. When you click on a sub-process and you go back to the flow trace you might have to expand all child nodes again and again.
  • DataSetTooLargeException:  When your flow trace becomes longer and longer, you will observe, that there is a maximum size for the audit trail that can be displayed by Enterprise Manager. Usually it results in a java.lang.RuntimeException: oracle.soa.management.facade.DataSetTooLargeException: Requested audit trail size is larger than threshold … chars
    For large execution trees, sub-process instances might not be displayed or you might not be able to see things in detail.
  • Low Memory: It is not only the visible representation of your instance, which struggles. A huge audit trail implicitly means that your needed memory allocation for executing your process instance grows. It can grow to this extent that your process instance crashes because of running low in memory.

Scripted SOA Diagnostic Dumps for PS6 (11.1.1.7) By Shawn Bailey

When you upgrade to SOA Suite PS6 (11.1.1.7) you acquire a new set of Diagnostic Dumps in addition to what was available in PS5. With more than a dozen to choose from and not wanting to run them one at a time, this blog post provides a sample script to collect them all quickly and hopefully easily. There are several ways that this collection could be scripted and this is just one example.
What is Included:

  • wlst.properties: Ant Properties
  • build.xml
  • soa_diagnostic_script.py: Python Script

9 Tips for Organizational Maturity in SOA by Luis Weir

One of the greatest challenges to implementing SOA has in fact nothing to do with the intrinsic complexity behind a SOA technology platform. It is widely recognized that the real difficulty lies in dealing with people and processes from different parts of business and aligning them to deliver enterprise wide solutions. This is not only true in the case of SOA architectures but rather a challenge faced in systems design in general. As it has been nicely put by Conway’s law: “organizations which design systems … are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations”.

Following 9 tips that have helped me bridge organizational silos by improving communications and collaboration between teams/departments and also by providing visibility over available assets:
