UX of the Oracle Applications Cloud Release 13

September 13, 2018 Leave a comment

image

Are you curious about what you’ll find in Release 13 of the Oracle Applications Cloud? This release leverages the flexibility of the cloud to give customers more control of the cloud’s user interface (UI). The key UX highlights include:

New ‘lobby’ experience: The cloud’s home page has gotten a makeover in R13. The new “lobby experience” of the home page is how users launch the cloud. Customers have two contemporary home page layouts to choose from: banner view and panel view. The new banner view (above, left) stripes the same social panel horizontally across the top of the home page. Panel view (right) sets the social panel vertically on the left.

Robust branding capabilities: R13 represents a big investment from Oracle in providing a way for customers to very simply reflect a company’s brand and culture, and to keep it up to date. We’ve built up branding and theming controls introduced in previous releases, such as the enhanced Appearance Editor, allowing customers to easily mold the cloud to best fit their unique corporate cultures.

To learn more about the UX highlights of R13: 

• Read this post on the OAUX Blog: One size does not fit all: Flexibility fuels visual evolution of Oracle Cloud’s Release 13

• Watch this webinar on Cloud Customer Connect (must have an account to access): Oracle Applications Cloud Visual Evolution Release 13

• Explore UX highlights by release on the OAUX Blog

Oracle IoT Cloud Apps Rollout in Mexico City by Albert Chiang

September 11, 2018 Leave a comment

image 

After the official launch of Oracle IoT Cloud Apps at Modern Supply Chain Conference 2017, we received a stream of requests for information – from potential customers, system integrators, and device makers. Many of them did not know Oracle offered an IoT solution. And most of them did not know that Oracle offered IoT originally as a PaaS – and also now as a SaaS.  This intrigued them.

Mexico and Its Shift to High End Assembly & Manufacturing

So perhaps it wasn’t surprising that the Oracle IoT rollout in Mexico City was a standing room only event. IoT has gained the interest of manufacturers (sometimes also called Industry 4.0) to be able to track manufacturing output, monitor the status of machines in manufacturing, and predicatively call for maintenance.   With Mexico’s strong manufacturing base,  the country has become the third largest source of imports into the U.S., with a total 2-way trade of $579 billion. And that number should change as BMW gears up to produce its popular 3-series car in Mexico by 2019. Read the complete article here.

Let Us Take You into the Future

Artificial intelligence, autonomous databases, blockchain, chatbots, Internet of Things, and more: Oracle executives discuss emerging technologies. By Michael Hickins

Those of us who have been waiting for the future to arrive since, well, forever can finally rejoice. The future has arrived in the form of computer interfaces that feel human; self-learning software; self-healing autonomous databases; sensors that provide us with actionable, critical data from far afield; hyper-realistic visualization technology; and transaction systems that are simultaneously private and transparent.

What’s most surprising, though, is that the experience of the future is incredibly easy for Oracle’s customers to deploy. At this year’s Oracle OpenWorld in San Francisco, California, Oracle leaders announced new products and discussed upcoming capabilities that put the power of several emerging technologies into the hands of Oracle customers.

Enterprise-Class Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most fundamentally important and pervasive of emerging technologies. Larry Ellison, executive chairman and CTO at Oracle, calls machine learning, a subset of artificial intelligence, “every bit as revolutionary as the internet.”

Oracle is using AI, for instance, to power its autonomous database and chatbots (more on those to follow), and to turn the trillions of data points streaming from connected devices into actionable information.

“For years and years and years, artificial intelligence did not live up to its promise,” Ellison said during his opening keynote address at Oracle OpenWorld on October 1, “but there is a new type of AI.” Read the complete article here.

Quick look into Oracle BPM 12c REST APIs by Sebastian Marucci

September 8, 2018 Leave a comment

image

Back in mid-2014, Oracle was releasing Oracle BPM 11g Bundle Patch 3 and with it, the first version of its BPM REST APIs. That first cut was a good starting point, but it just offered a limited amount of functionality (find my previous post here). In this post, we’ll take a look at the BPM REST APIs version 12.2.1.2, released in August 2016, and see how they evolved after 2 years.

The list of available services can be obtained by accessing to http://yourserver:port/bpm/services/rest/application.wadl.

The picture above shows all the REST services included in this new version; highlighted in yellow are the new services introduced since the first version of the REST APIs. There’s one curious thing, the two processes services (1.0/processes and /processes). Like in the very first version of processes service, if you execute getProcess operation, the response is just “Processes.”. Likewise with runtime service, if you execute getRuntime operation, the response is an empty string. Read the complete article here.

Unshackle the Business – Best Practices in UI and Process Designs by Mark Peterson

September 7, 2018 Leave a comment

image

To remain competitive, companies have to continually drive down costs while maintaining value in the products and services they offer. One area where companies look to reduce costs is in Business Process Management (BPM).

When it comes to IT expenditures, some companies may invest a small fortune in BPM, while others may simply rely on basic tools, such as spreadsheets and Post-it notes. Regardless of the amount spent, if the tools are hard to use or the process is cumbersome then your business has become shackled and is wasting time and energy.

Are your company’s internal business processes helping or hurting efficiency? Take this simple assessment:

  • Do your employees have relevant and useful tools to complete their work or do they waste time navigating complicated or out-of-date systems?
  • Do their tools or user interfaces (UIs) involve countless forms or spreadsheets or are they streamlined and concise?
  • Do the business processes or workflow they must follow slow them down or accelerate their work?

AVIO has developed best practices in UI and business process design that help organizations reduce their cost of doing business and increase worker satisfaction. These practices and designs, when implemented, empower employees and help drive organizational change, which can ultimately affect the company’s bottom line. Read the complete article here.

Jarvis Pizzeria: Deploying and Reverting to Snapshots by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind

September 6, 2018 Leave a comment

image

When working on a PCS application, you save and publish your changes often. However, when you publish a certain state of the application, you can decide to create a snapshot of this state of the application.

This can be very helpful if the publish represents a certain version of the application. Later these snapshots can be deployed or reverted to in case you want to roll back to a previous version. It is also possible to see what was in the application at the time of the snapshot creation.
In this blog we will show you how to work with snapshots.

When publishing, in the popup on the right hand side there is a option to ‘Make Snapshot’, when this checkbox is checked you can enter a name for the snapshot, in this case the snapshot will represent Jarvis 1.0!

After the Changes have been published and a snapshot is created we go to the deploy screen by clicking the deploy button. Read the complete article here.
