Responding in Real-Time with Big Data By Mala Ramakrishnan

For an organization to respond in real-time it needs to acquire or develop systems that can respond in real-time. Such systems need to be able to rapidly determine that a response is required and determine also what the appropriate and relevant response should be – they need to decide when and how to act. These kinds of decision-making systems are known as Decision Management Systems. To ensure that a response is delivered in real-time, more event-centric Decision Management Systems are required.

High-volume, high-speed front-line decisions must increasingly be made in real-time with big data and analytics that are actionable and operational. Oracle Event Processing and Oracle Real Time Decisions are core components of a solution that allows organizations to detect rapidly changing situations from massive volumes of high velocity data to make optimal, real-time business decisions.

Come to this webcast to hear James Taylor, CEO of Decision Management Solutions, discuss his latest research on why real-time responses must detect, analyze and act with greater automation. Watch the webcast on-demand here.

SOA Transformation through SOA Upgrade by Luis Augusto Weir

10gTo11gMuch has been said about Oracle SOA Suite 10g (or JCaps) upgrades to 11g and how features map between both versions. There is also plenty of information online about this topic both official and unofficial. It’s not news to many that for example SOA Suite 10g is currently in extended support and product will enter sustaining support by the end of 2014 (I will explain more about what extended and sustaining support means later in the blog). However one fact remains truth: There are still many companies out there running platforms that are (or soon will be) in sustaining support, and that don’t yet have an upgrade strategy. I say this based on my own experience as I am currently helping several customers do exactly this.

Having said that,  I wrote this blog in an attempt to give SOA experts, Integration Leads and Architects key pointers that can serve as inspiration to come up with a transformational approach when defining an upgrade strategy. Note that I am using the word “transformation” deliberately and I will explain why shortly.

Note that although this article is mainly related to the Oracle SOA 10g to 11g technology stacks, the approaches, tips and information provided in this blog should also be applicable when defining any technology upgrade. In fact, once 12c is more mature I will probably refresh this blog to cover 11g to 12c upgrades.

Following my key pointers to help you define your upgrade as a SOA Transformation:

    1)Understand the product roadmaps and planning to move in advance
    2)Take a SOA Transformation approach and not just a technology upgrade
    3)Elaborate a SOA Transformation Roadmap
    4)Understand current and future technology stacks and identify potential risks and challenges in advance
    5)Define a service transformation methodology
    6)SOA transformation also requires organisational changes and maturity

1) Understand the product roadmaps and planning to move in advance

This is one of the most important points and one that many have either failed to understand or have just ignored (hence why many companies still stuck in 10g and have no plan to upgrade yet). This is important because by understanding the product releases and features, release dates, and support lifeline you can plan in advance an upgrade approach and avoid having to do something tactically, in a rush and with limited budget.

Before getting further into this topic, it is critical that you understand the basics of Oracle product releases: Read the complete article here.

SOA’s Role in Simplifying Mobile Enablement

For many years web browsers and desktop computers were the primary way to access information from enterprise applications. As mobile devices have proliferated, applications are no longer tied to the desktop. Users want to use their smartphones and tablets to access corporate data and business apps, anytime, anywhere. Many IT departments are having a hard time accommodating these mobile interfaces while preserving hard-won enterprise standards. Rather than continuing to develop applications first for the desktop and then making tactical mobile development choices, IT leaders want a consistent architecture that considers all channels. In this screencast, Suhas Uliyar who heads the mobile strategy at Oracle speaks about how customers can bridge this gap to take their existing and new enterprise applications mobile. He introduces Oracle Mobile Suite and SOA’s role in this product offering. Watch the webcast here.
