Using Business Events in Fusion-based SaaS with Oracle Integration Cloud Service – Part 2: Step-by-Step Example by Stefan Koser

image

Following the overview in Part 1, I will now show detailed steps how to create the event subscriptions. In our example, we will use an “Item Creation” event (from SCM cloud).

Prerequisite: Register CSF Key in SaaS

In a FA-based SaaS instance, the outbound call of a webservice uses a OWSM security policy which retrieves the credentials for the call from a CSF Key. This means that you need to register a CSF key for every connection to an external system. In our case we need to register a CSF key for the ICS/OIC instance:

  • The name of the CSF key must match the ICS instance name or OIC account name
  • The user must be an ICS/OIC user
  • The password must be the password of this ICS/OIC user

You create this CSF key via SOA composer – accessible through the URL   <base_fa_url>/soa/composer

Enter the details and press “Register”. Read the complete article here.

Using Business Events in Fusion-based SaaS with Oracle Integration Cloud Service – Part 1: Overview by Stefan Koser

image

Introduction

For integration with all Oracle Fusion based Cloud services – like Oracle Sales Cloud and Oracle SCM Cloud, each service provides Business Events which external applications or integrations can subscribe to.

Oracle Integration Cloud Service (ICS) or the new offering Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) allow very easily to receive (subscribe) to these events and forward them, for example, to external applications. Following a previous A-Team post on Chronicles on Sales Cloud Events, we will give an update on Release 13 and how to use the event filters.

One example would be to publish an event every time a new item in SCM is created. With this event, a call to ICS/OIC is executed which triggers an integration.

The easiest way of subscribing to business events is by using the Oracle Sales Cloud Adapter or Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter (for SCM) in Oracle Integration Cloud Service (ICS).

In the prior release of FA-based solutions – Release 12 – you had to create separate connections for each pillar (CRM, SCM, ERP). This has changed with R13 – now there is a single Service Catalog WSDL URL and a single Events Catalog URL – which simplifies creation of event subscriptions.

In this blog series, I will give an update of the new events available, how to subscribe from ICS – or the new Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) offering – and how to use Event Expressions to filter only specific events to subscribe to.

List of Business Events in Release 13

This is a list of all Business Events in an R13 GSI instance you can subscribe to (this version is based on Update 17C): Read the complete article here.

Troubleshooting Oracle API Platform Cloud Service by Lonneke Dikmans

image 

One of the challenges when working in integration is troubleshooting. This becomes even more challenging with when you start using a new product.
Recently I worked with Oracle Product management (Thank you Darko and Lohit) to troubleshoot issues with an OAuth configuration of APIs in Oracle API Platform Cloud Service.

Setup

The setup was as follows:

  1. An API Gateway node deployed to Oracle Compute Cloud Classic as an infrastructure provider
  2. Oracle Identity Management Cloud Service in the role of OAuth provider

We setup an API with several policies, including OAuth for security. When we called the service, it gave us a ‘401 unauthorized’ error.

Oracle API Platform Cloud Service troubleshooting

The Oracle API Platform Service offers analytics for each API. You can navigate there by opening the API Platform Management portal, click on the API you want to troubleshoot and click on the Analytics tab (this is the bottom tab).
Click on Errors and Rejections, after setting the period you are interested in. Usually when you are troubleshooting, you would like to see the last hour. Read the complete article here.

Gain Insight Across Microservice and Legacy Services through APIs by Robert Wunderlich

image

One of the principles that continues to ring true in business is "change" and we are accelerating our requirements for new models like never before. You might have heard about Microservices and how the principle of loose-coupling promises to solve so many problems.

One problem that can be introduced though is the loss of visibility into the state of a business transaction when using a choreography over an orchestration. There are ways to solve this however, and I took some time this week to put together a solution. Before we dive in, let’s cover some principles just to make sure we are all on the same page.

  • Many of these principles are not new. I wrote about Microservices and the Integration Platform a couple of years ago.
  • Many in the SOA world often employed the orchestration pattern where the business transaction was managed across multiple services by an orchestrator service. This is a valid pattern, and there are cases where it is necessary, but there were also cases where it was overused. For example, for nothing other than to maintain visibility of where we are in a particular business transaction.
  • Microservices introduced (or rather reminded us) of the choreography, where services all work independently, and are focused on their individual part of a complete business transaction. Read the complete article here.
