· Autonomous IT Now How will autonomous technology services alter business strategies and change the nature of IT? Companies using Oracle’s Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud are providing some of the earliest answers. For example, for the first time ever, a businessperson who isn’t an expert in IT can order up a powerful, autonomous data warehouse and be ready to load huge amounts of data—accomplishing in minutes what might have taken a DBA days to set up. “This gives database superpowers to business people who never had it before,” says Accenture Chief Technology and Innovation Officer Paul Daugherty. Read more about how Daugherty and fellow leaders in business and tech are using autonomous IT right now.

Demystifying Blockchain and Consensus Mechanisms – Everything You Wanted to Know But Were Never Told by: Andre Boaventura

image

It is likely that you’ve heard at least one description of what blockchain is, and that description probably had something to do with money due to many popular technologies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple and many others currently available in the cryptocurrency marketplace. Blockchain has received a lot of attention for its “distributed ledger” technology, which is the basis for buying or selling cryptocurrencies and other assets through private markets. However, Blockchain technology has broader applications than cryptocurrencies. Today, blockchain is being already adopted as part of many everyday business-to-business transactions, including those powered by enterprise applications such as ERP, Supply Chain, Financial Services, etc.

The Blockchain is an undeniably ingenious invention – the brainchild of a person or group of people known by the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto. But since then, it has evolved into something greater, and the main question every single person is asking is: What is Blockchain?

By definition, Blockchain is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography. Each block typically contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp and transaction data. By design, a blockchain is inherently resistant to modification of the data. It is "an open, distributed ledger that can record transactions between two parties efficiently and in a verifiable and permanent way". For use as a distributed ledger, a blockchain is typically managed by a peer-to-peer network collectively adhering to a protocol for validating new blocks. Once recorded, the data in any given block cannot be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks, which requires collusion of the network majority. Read the complete article here.

Why there’s no innovation without integration by Barry O’Reilly & Joost Volker

image

 

Innovation isn’t just about creating entirely new apps and services. It happens when organisations have the freedom to look beyond the constraints of new and old services, and use technology to connect and extend them together.

Every business that wants to succeed needs to innovate. For some, that’s going to mean creating new applications and services from the ground up, but innovation isn’t just about the “net new”—it’s as much about what you connect as it is about what you create.

Few companies can execute the same green-field approach to innovation used by start-ups, nor would they want to. Instead, true innovation for most organisations is about the way you connect the old with the new—extending and enhancing the existing brand. 

Modern tools and capabilities can help you connect existing investments to new services to deliver rapid innovation that helps you make use of both old and new applications, while generating greater value from both.

The different kinds of change

It’s easy to think of innovation as an entirely customer-facing concept. Some of the best-known examples of modern innovation are incredibly customer-focussed, from hyper-convenient new consumer experiences such as those delivered by Amazon Go, to the customer-focused UI experience built into Tesla cars that uses apps and APIs to connect drivers to the outside world.

The most powerful and transformational innovations are not mere gimmicks. They bring the strength and power of an organization to a new channel, to a new service offering, or to a new engagement platform. The approach and engagement with customers is new and innovative, but the existing strength and reliability of the brand is maintained through innovation. This is how established businesses are outmanoeuvring their start-up competitors.

By leveraging new integration tools, established businesses can create new integration points between existing investments to improve efficiency, reduce waste – and ultimately build innovation into both internal and external processes and channels while continuing to drive value from existing investments.

Enabling Innovation

In today’s fast paced market, every company, large or small, understands that innovation is a top priority. Across all industries and companies of all sizes, we are witnessing the adoption of start-up type models and approaches to innovate rapidly and innovate at low-cost. Just like start-ups every company needs to try new things. Many may not work but those that do could be revolutionary. Read the complete article here.

Embedding the Oracle OICS Process Workspace Application in an iFrame by Siming Mu

 

Intimageroduction

Oracle Process Cloud Workspace is a web application that a user uses to interact with human activities in BPMN processes. It is a stand-alone web application in Oracle Integration Cloud Service (OICS). In some use cases, customers want to embed the Workspace application in an iframe of their own web page. Out of box, this is not possible because all HTTP responses from the Workspace have an X-Frame-Options header set to “sameorigin”. It does not allow browsers to embed response data into an iframe from a different domain.

This post demonstrates a work-around solution to this problem by using a proxy server. The idea is to use a proxy server (OHS or Apache) to  remove or modify the X-Frame-Options header from all responses from the Workspace.

Demo Environment

My demo environment, shown in the image below, includes an OHS server installed on localhost:7777. I have my OICS instance running on a VM. I have a simple test web page with an iframe installed on the OHS.

Check the Problem First

Let’s verify the problem exists first. The following two screen shots show the Workspace accessed directly without the proxy. Read the complete article here.

Jarvis Pizzeria: Aborting a Process by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind & Marc Kuijpers

image

In this blog entry, we will take a look at the way a dynamic process deals with a process that ends with an exception. We will implement this in our “Register Order” process.

We modeled the process as depicted below:
When saved, published and activated, we start a new dynamic process; of course through our famous form:

The expectation is that Register Order starts and that we can start executing the task. When we open the process and click the “Abort” button on the “Save in backend system”, the process ends with an error event. See the screenshot below:

So what do we expect our Dynamic Process to do? Will it recognize the error and re-activate the “Register Order” activity again? Let’s see. Read the complete article here.
