Configure and send email notifications with UMS Notification Service in Service Bus 12c by Markus Lohn

image

 

This blog post provides a detailed description how to configure and send an email notification with User Notification Service (UMS). In detail it shows how to configure the following properties in a OSB pipeline:

  • the subject
  • the receiver of the email
  • the sender of the email
  • the message body

There exists a lot of interesting blog entries about using UMS, but they don’t show how to set the above email properties in a OSB pipeline. The instructions afterwards are tested with OSB 12.2.1.1.

Prerequisites

  • Prepare an Email Server to receive messages. You can use FakeSMTP (https://nilhcem.github.io/FakeSMTP/) as a simple solution.
  • Prepare a SOA Quickstart environment.
  • Configure and start the IntegratedWebLogicServer in JDeveloper 12.2.1.1.
  • Configure an Email Driver via Oracle Enterprise Manager (see References)

Configuration Steps

1. Open a Service Bus project in JDeveloper (Example: SendEmailTest). Read the complete article here.

Service Bus: A quickstart for the Kafka transport by Maarten Smeets

image

As mentioned on the following blog post by Lucas Jellema, Kafka is going to play a part in several Oracle products. For some usecases it might eventually even replace JMS. In order to allow for easy integration with Kafka, you can use Oracle Service Bus to create a virtualization layer around Kafka. Ricardo Ferreira from Oracle’s A-Team has done some great work on making a custom Kafka Service Bus transport available to us. Read more about this here: http://www.ateam-oracle.com/osb-transport-for-apache-kafka-part-1/, http://www.ateam-oracle.com/oracle-service-bus-transport-for-apache-kafka-part-2/ and http://www.ateam-oracle.com/custom-transports-in-osb-12-2-1/. The Kafka transport is not an ‘officially supported’ transport. Quote from the A-team blog: ‘The Kafka transport is provided for free to use “AS-IS” but without any official support from Oracle. The A-Team reserves the right of help in the best-effort capacity.’. I hope it will become an officially supported part of the Service Bus product in the future. Read the complete article here.

Use HTML Content with UMS Adapters in OSB 12c by Chris Laurente

image

In this post, we will learn how to send html content for the emails using a UMS adapter in OSB 12c. There we go:

Pre-requirements

First, we need to verify that we have the UMS adapter and the email driver already working. These configurations are in the previous post Using UMS Adapter to send emails with OSB 12c.

Steps

So first we have to edit the UMS adapter and go to the step 5, Set the option “Message is Opaque (Base64Binary)”

Now, we need to encode the information to Base64 and use use it in the businees service. To accomplish this task we could use a Java callout and use it to encode the information. I have created a Jar file that encode and decode as Base64 and you can download it here.

Extract the jar library and import into the SB Project. Read the complete article here.

SOA Suite monitoring – Using Metric Extensions in Enterprise Manage Cloud Control by MichelSchildmeijer

image

As a follow up to my 2 minute Tech Tip taken by @BobRhubart about SOA Suite monitoring I’d like to give you some more context than that fuzzy performance of me during Oracle Open World 2016.

Monitoring your SOA Suite is a tough job because of the complexity of the environment. Usually Adminstrators stick to some CPU, memory, disk and basic WebLogic Monitoring, some have monitoring in place for some more advanced stuff such as JVM, JMS, JDBC, but when it comes to "Who monitors the Error Hospital on Business Faults?" or "Who is looking after SOA housekeeping?", than no one knows what i’m talking about.

And, in many cases, the necessary SOA Management pack hasn’t been licensed, or switched on to make use of all the nice features you can get out of this pack. This pack transforms your local Fusion Middleware Console into an EM dashboard, can monitor the Error Hospital, trace on Instance flows and even monitor the Dehydration Store Performance the SOA Suite repository. So, who needs the local Fusion Middleware Console(EM)?

Impression of the screens in Enterprise Manager Cloud Control

However, if you are not licensed to use the SOA Suite management pack, than you are not permitted to use al these nice features.

As I told in the video, Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud control has a feature called metric extensions. These are extensions if collected metrics which are delivered in a certain pack are not sufficient enough or maybe are not there at all. I did some research for a customer who used the SOA Suite but had no management pack for it. Read the complete article here & watch the video here.
