Instance Archiving and Purging in Oracle Process Cloud Service by Antonis Antoniou

image

Archiving and purging your process instances systematically can improve drastically the performance of your processes. This task has been simplified in Oracle Process Cloud Service that gives you the option to run archives on demand or automate this task via scheduled jobs.

All archived instances (data) are stored in the Oracle Cloud Storage Service that is bundled with your Oracle Process Cloud Service. Archived instances are compressed in a zip file and once an archive task is processed, you will receive an email that will contain the link to the zip file that you can click on it to download the archived instances.

Purge will remove the BPM runtime information. Purge runs as a separate job and runs directly on the database. So when you configure archiving and purging, then two separate jobs will be executed independently of each other. So let’s see how you can schedule instance archiving and purging.

Configuring instance archiving and purging is an administrative task, therefore from the Oracle Process Cloud Service home page click on the “Configure” banner to go to the application settings. Read the complete article here.

My private Corner – Merry Christmas

Since a few years we create a special Christmas card for the community. In 2015 we started with a Christmas delivery process implemented in Oracle Process Cloud Service. Last year multiple SaaS services have been integrated by drag and drop to process the Christmas presents. This year Santa Claus handles the Christmas wish list as a dynamic case. Make sure you submit your wish list, and Santa Claus as Rudolph to bring you the PaaS Forum tickets! #jkwc

Handle locked rows by DB Adapters for distributed Polling technologies in OSB 12c by Chris Laurente

image

In this post, we will learn some ways to handle a database row that is locked by a Database Adapter with Distributed polling capablity in OSB 12c. There we go:

Introduction

Sometimes, when we work with Database adapters with distributed polling we are struggling to update the same polled row in the respective pipeline because, basically, the polled row is locked with the option “FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED” and it will be released when the process finishes or if an error occurs. But, what happen if we want to update the same polled row, let see for example the status description of the process or some error messages. So, I would like to show you some ways to handle these cases.

1.- Using JMS resources

If we could handle more resources like for example Topics or queues then we would be able to send the polled row to these resources and process them after the poller was released, so it would be useful if we want to release the polled row as soon as we want.

In this case we will create a topic and we will specify the Messaging request as the request of the DB Poller, the column to read and write is called POLLER_READ from 0(READY) to 1(DONE). Read the complete article here.

Asynchronous Web Services With Oracle SOA Suite by Pavel Samolysov

image

The top web services based approaches for asynchronous interactions among enterprise applications are described in the article. The common used during Oracle SOA Suite leveraging method that based on a callback service and the WS-Addressing specification is shown. A number of examples of asynchronous web service creation and client generation using the JDeveloper IDE are considered.

Introduction

Time to time, when we as architects integrate some enterprise applications, asynchronous communication has be to taken into account. Asynchronous communication means a service consumer isn’t blocked for an response from a service provider, it just gets an acknowledge and continue doing it’s work. There are two popular approaches to implement asynchronous communication among web services:

  • polling refers to actively sampling the status of a being processed request by a service consumer as a synchronous activity.
  • callback refers to a method provided by a service consumer. When the service provider have accomplished the operation processing, it calls the consumer. In this approach, the service consumer simultaneously works like a callback methods service provider as well. Read the complete article here.

Oracle Public Cloud – Invoking ICS endpoints from SOA CS – configure SSL certificate and basic authentication. By Lucas Jellema

image

As part of the Soaring through the Clouds demo of 17 Oracle Public Cloud services, I had to integrate SOA CS with both ACCS (Application Container Cloud) and ICS (Integration Cloud Service).

Calls from Service Bus and SOA Composites running in SOA Suite 12c on SOA CS to endpoints on ACCS (Node.js Express applications) and ICS (REST connector endpoint) were required in this demo. These calls are over SSL (to https endpoints) and for ICS also require basic authentication (at present, ICS endpoints cannot be invoked anonymously).

This article shows the steps for taking care of these two aspects:

  • ensure that the JVM under SOA Suite on SOA CS knows and trusts the SSL certificate for ACCS or ICS
  • ensure that the call from SOA CS to ICS carries basic authentication details

The starting point is a SOA Composite that corresponds with the preceding figure – with external references to DBaaS (through Database Adapter), ICS (to call an integration that talks to Twitter) and ACCS (to invoke a REST API on NodeJS that calls out to the Spotify API): Read the complete article here.
