OSB Threading and the HTTP Transport White Paper by Mike Muller

December 14, 2013 Leave a comment

I have created a white paper explaining the OSB threading model with a focus on the HTTP transport.  I have heard from several customers who have experienced difficulty with tuning HTTP services with relation to the use of work managers.  This paper’s goal is to explain the threads involved in servicing a proxy and how work managers fit into that model.

Introducing Oracle Enterprise Repository Express Workflows – Simplified Lifecycle Management by Yogesh Sontakke

December 12, 2013 Leave a comment

As announced at Oracle Open World 2013 last week, we are delighted to introduce an exciting, new feature for Oracle Enterprise Repository 11g PS6 – Express Workflows.

OER provides a set of features and options for moving an asset from an initial to a final lifecycle state. Express Workflows are a mechanism for    automating these asset lifecycle approval processes in OER.
Express Workflows help automate this process for any given type of assets that are produced by your project(s). It allows you to easily assign approvers and define the flow of approvals from one approver to the next.
You can use Express Workflows to pre-define, automate and ensure that assets submitted or harvested into your OER projects go through as much or as less of an approval process as per your requirement – in a few, simple steps.

Download the OER 11g Express Workflows here – requirements and detailed instructions are available in the PDF bundled within the patch.

BAM Adapter Batching Deep Dive by Pete Want

November 18, 2013 Leave a comment

In the real business scenario of integrating SOA/AIA applications with Oracle Business Activity Monitoring (BAM), one common requirement is that such integration should not impact the operations of business systems running on SOA/AIA in terms of high availability and performance. To achieve this goal, one option is to use BAM Adapter or BAM Sensor Actions with Batching enabled. This article explains how batching works in Oracle BAM Adapter.

Why You Need Batching?

When talking about batching, the first impression you may have is that you put a set of data into a package or a batch, and send it across for processing as a whole. In the BAM Adapter context, batching not only allows a group of XML payloads to be sent to the BAM Server side, but also changes the behavior of a synchronous invocation to BAM Server API to Async.
In mission critical applications, the preferred approach to integrate Oracle BAM with live data feed is using the Fire and Forget Message Exchange Pattern (MEP). Fire and Forget MEP has two major benefits compared to synchronous integration pattern:

  • High Performance – Threads invoking BAM Adapter APIs are not blocked by down stream operations. Thus the slow execution of down stream code should not impact the performance of the core business system.
  • High Availability – The failures including application failure such as errors due to invalid payload, and system failures such as system outage due to maintenance, will not impact the normal operations of the main system. For example, in the Order to Cash (O2C) flow of AIA Communication PIPs, data integration between AIA and BAM should be in an asynchronous manner, thus, failures and outage of BAM will not impact AIA operations.

When Oracle BAM Adapter or BAM Sensor Actions is used, you should always enable batching to leverage the Fire and Forget MEP. In the next section, you will see how BAM Adapter works with batching enabled.

How Batching Works?

Oracle BAM Adapter is a JCA compliant adapter that primarily converts Oracle BAM operations (Insert, Upsert, Update, and Delete) into the standard Web Services Interface described by WSDL.

By default, BAM Adapter operates in a synchronous manner as shown in the following diagram.

Remove data in Oracle MDS by Danilo Schmiedel

November 14, 2013 Leave a comment

The two main database schemas in the Oracle SOA Suite datab ase repository are: <PREFIX>_SOAINFRA and <PREFIX>_MDS. Composite instance and runtime information are stored in the SOAINFRA schema. Commonly used metadata like WSDLs, XSDs, rules, fault policies, etc. as well as composite deployments are stored within the MDS schema.
With every deployment / import of the metadata artifacts a new document version will be created in the MDS. This means that re-importing an updated WSDL-file into the MDS does not delete the previous version of the document. Furthermore we sometimes need to remove unnecessary and unwanted files from the repository. If this is not considered you might end in problems like below: Read the full article here.

Best practice for High Availability

This paper describes the recommended Active – Active solutions that can be used for protecting an Oracle Fusion Middleware 11 g SOA system against downtime across multiple locations (referred to as SOA Active – Active Disaster Recovery Solution or SOA Multi Data Center Active – Active Deployment). It provides the required configuration steps for setting up the recommended topologies and guidance about the performance and failover implications of such a configuration.
