Configuring a Compact Domain for SOA Suite by Waslley Souza

December 15, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002A compact domain is a developer domain consisting of a single administration server and in this post you will learn how to create it!

After the installation of SOA Suite 12c and required schemas, open a command prompt and go to ORACLE_HOME/soa/common/bin. Set the environment variable CONFIG_JVM_ARGS to -Dcom.oracle.cie.config.showProfile=true. This will activate the compact domain option in the configuration wizard.

cd ORACLE_HOME\soa\common\bin
SET CONFIG_JVM_ARGS=-Dcom.oracle.cie.config.showProfile=true
config.cmd

In the Configuration Type screen, select Create a new compact domain. Read the complete article here.

Inline Subprocesses in SOA Suite 12c by Herman Brunnekreef

December 14, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image001In a project I work in I had to create a process that does calculations based on the input. This calculations must be done from different parts in the input. So the only difference where the input variables. For this I used the option Inline Subprocesses in BPEL. An Inline Subprocess is embedded in the main BPEL-proces and can be called from different scope’s in the main process.
In this blogpost I will give a brief introduction of the use of Inline Subprocesses in BPEL.

The Inline Subprocess can be created from the main BPEL-window in the menu-bar.
When selecting this you see the next window. Here you type a name for your subprocess.

When you created the subprocess you can here select the subprocess store_output. When it’s opened it’s look like a brand new BPEL-process. Read the complete article here

Patching your JDeveloper 12.1.3 with SOA Bundle Patch 12.1.3.0.2 by Jan van Zoggel

December 13, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image001

The SOA(/BPM) Bundle Patch 12.1.3.0.2 is available for download from Oracle Support (http://support.oracle.com)
Just use the search on patch number ‘20423408’ and it will bring you the patch details page with the download (approx. 662MB).
You can deploy the patch on top of your basic 12.1.3.0.0 or the earlier released SOA Bundle Patch 12.1.3.0.1

So I patched my own JDeveloper 12.1.3 environment with the OPATCH tool.
Extract the downloaded patch, I’ll use C:\temp\p20423408_121300_Generic\20423408
This folder is called ‘patch_TOP’ in opatch terminology.

Since I use Windows as local OS you will need to First open a command prompt with Administrator rights (right-click, run as Administrator).
If we don’t use the right permissions we will get the error: Unable to lock Central Inventory. OPatch will attempt to re-lock

First we set our ORACLE_HOME to the Jdeveloper 12.1.3 folder:
SET ORACLE_HOME=C:\ORACLE\middleware\12.1.3
And make sure opatch is in our path:
SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\ORACLE\middleware\12.1.3\OPatch
We browse to the patch_top folder:
cd C:\temp\p20423408_121300_Generic\20423408
And run opatch:
opatch apply

Continuous Delivery for Oracle SOA and BPM by Matt Wright

December 12, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002The goal of continuous delivery is to help software development teams drive waste out of their process by simultaneously automating the process of software delivery and reducing the batch size of their work. This allows organizations to rapidly, reliably, and repeatedly deliver software enhancements faster, with less risk and less cost.

Continuous Integration (CI) is the practice of automatically building and testing a piece of software; either each time code is committed by a developer or in environments with a large number of small commits, or a long-running build on a regular scheduled basis.

Continuous Delivery (CD) goes a step further to automate the build, packaging, deployment, and regression testing, so that it can be released at any time into production.

Continuous deployment takes this another step further, in that code is automatically deployed into production, rather than when the business decides to release the code. Read the complete article here.

An Introduction to Oracle’s Integration Cloud Service (ICS) by Jennie DeRosa

December 11, 2015 Leave a comment

clip_image002Overview

Last month, Oracle made available their latest tool within their integration cloud strategy, Integration Cloud Service (ICS).  With the number of SaaS applications growing, the need to integrate is becoming more important, making ICS even more relevant.

The intended usage of ICS are implementations of simple, light weight integrations between SaaS applications.  It resides within the cloud, is built off the Oracle Service Bus, and is available on a monthly subscription basis.

Pre-built solutions will be available in the marketplace (think app store), allowing for reusable integrations to be purchased, implemented in an accelerated manner. This will provide the option to reuse existing integrations as-is, or build on top of the existing, customizing for your business integration needs. If the pre-built solutions don’t meet your integration needs, the capability to develop your own from scratch is always on option. Either way, the development of an integration within ICS can be done using the capabilities detailed in this article.

Within ICS, there are 4 aspects: Integrations, Connections, Lookups, and Packages. Each of these will be discussed in further detail.

Integrations

Developing integrations between SaaS applications is done in ICS via a web based tool. Using drag and drop capabilities, an integration can easily be defined. Since the tool is built on top of OSB, the functions defined within the VETO (validate, enrich, transform, and operation) integration design pattern are available for implementation: Read the complete article here.

Upgrading to Oracle SOA Suite 12c – What you need to know by Matt Brasier

December 11, 2015 Leave a comment

 

clip_image002Matt Brasier, Head of Consulting at C2B2 and author of the ‘Oracle SOA Suite 11g Cookbook’, recently delivered a series of webinars giving an overview of Oracle SOA Suite 12c, and what viewers need to know about it.

Background

Matt is a Professional Services Consultant and has over 13 years experience in tuning enterprise Java applications. Having worked on jobs from small in-house solutions to large Government projects, Matt has experience of working across a broad range of industries.

As Head of Consulting at C2B2, Matt works alongside a number of certified SOA Suite Consultants. C2B2 are Oracle Gold partners and deliver expertise through a combination of consulting and remote support. The company have a lot of experience working with WebLogic, Oracle SOA Suite stack and Oracle integration stacks.

What’s new in Oracle SOA Suite 12c?

The improvements and new features in Oracle SOA Suite 12c have been split into 3 core areas;

1. Productivity improvements have been made across the whole range of SOA Suite components and services, with the biggest developments being around jumpstart templates, lightweight footprint and unified design tools.

2. Cloud integration has also been a big driver for change. Users now have the ability to not only integrate their own on premise applications, servers and components using SOA Suite, but can also bring in their Software as a Service providers (SaaS).

3. Another key area that Oracle have focused on in this release is mobile integration and mobile devices.

Productivity Improvements

Productivity improvements are the key reasons why Oracle SOA Suite 12c is important. These improvements allow users to do what they need to with Oracle SOA Suite, but quicker and more efficiently.

The biggest productivity improvement is the jumpstart distribution for developers. These are single bundle installations that contain Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle Service Bus or Oracle BPM in a single archive, containing a tool that builds a WebLogic domain. All components are preconfigured and plugged into a database that’s already been created and has all of the data already. Users can simply get up and running and start developing applications without needing to do large amounts of deploying, patching or adding products on top of products.

Test build environments are also easier to get up and running. These are small, single server domains that aren’t designed for production use, but are a good way of getting developers started and getting people up-skilled in Oracle SOA Suite. These quick start distributions make a big difference to training purposes.

Unified design interface is another useful improvement in Oracle SOA Suite 12c – it’s about ensuring the user interface looks and behaves the same across the various tools available; web interfaces and the Oracle J Developer interface in particular.

There are also a number of enhancements to testing and debugging, making it easier to debug things going on in Oracle SOA Suite in case something’s not behaving as expected.

Cloud Integration

Cloud Integration brings a lot of crucial business benefits, making it one of the key areas for growth in Service Oriented Architecture, and integration in general. Read the complete article here.

Oracle Cloud: ICS by Frank Munz

December 9, 2015 Leave a comment

clip_image002Quite a while ago (a year before Larry announced the Oracle Public Cloud) I wrote about SaaS applications and a service bus PaaS to interconnect services: “… services are integrated and virtualized by a service bus in the cloud and orchestrated by a workflow system in the cloud [Oracle Middleware and Cloud Computing] “.

Back then it almost seemed like building castles in Spain. Indeed it took several years to build the PaaS service – yet today Thomas Kurian and Larry Ellison announce Oracle’s ICS. Now it’s out there with all the agility that comes with a cloud based solution.

It’s the cloud! So get a test account, play with it, scale it and try to break it!

Let me know what you think using @frankmunz and add: @soacommunity.
