Oracle OpenWorld 2011, The Story So Far … ! image

It doesn’t matter how often you’ve visited Oracle OpenWorld before, it remains an overwhelming experience every year! The enormous crowds (over 45,000 this year), the gigantic amount of information to absorb, all the networking, business opportunities, social events and meetups with old friends and new people, all the new ideas that start bubbling in your head by listening, dicussing, asking, answering, and presenting.
Mix all of that with a proper jetlag and you’ll get a feel of the spicy cocktail that OpenWorld is 🙂 Returning from OpenWorld gives you a tired yet really energetic feel!
Tuesday feels a bit like the calm before the storm. Everyone digested a lot of information and attended a lot of events these last few days and is now prepping for the final encore on wednesday with Larry’s keynote and the appreciation event that evening at Treasure Island.
To give you an idea of the things going on at OOW, I’ve compiled a short list of activities we participated in so far:

  • ACE Director Briefing at Oracle HQ. Product management gives a preview of the things to be announced at OpenWorld and presents roadmaps of Oracle’s products and tools.
  • BPM and SOA Partner Advisory Council. Every year Jürgen Kress organizes a partner council at OOW in which product management present a detailed roadmap for BPM and SOA products such as Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle BPM Suite, Oracle Enterprise Repository, AIA, and so on. Partners are encouraged to provide feedback for product improvement. It’s good to see that the Oracle products in this space such as OSB and SOA Suite are mature and future versions will build on the same programming models and will be made even more stable.
  • SOA & BPM Partner Social Event. This year Jürgen took us eBiking in San Francisco and Sausalito. Beautiful weather, beautiful scenery, and a lovely dinner at Sausalito. Excellent event. This was followed up by the SOA & BPM Community Reception at Gordon Biersch later this week. Again a great event. And on behalf of the Dutch, thanks for the “active community” award 🙂

New version of BPM Suite 11.1.1.5 Feature Pack released

October 12, 2011 Leave a comment

by Manoj Das: The BPM product team is very pleased to announce that BPM Suite 11.1.1.5 Feature Pack is now publicly available. This feature pack includes many significant enhancements and new features. Some of the highlights of this release are:

More Business Friendly

Significantly Enhanced Process Composer

  • Versions and Snapshots: From process composer, you can create and manage snapshots and see who changed what and when.
  • Sharing and Collaboration: An enhanced project-level sharing model and collaboration features showing who else is working on the project at any time
  • Improved Ease of Use: Their is a new project home that makes managing project and its artifacts much more intuitive. Also, improved properties window, editing cues, and many other enhancements targeted at business analysts.
New Business Analyst Features
  • Documentation (Report) Generation: Generate process documentation as HTML or XML. XML format may be used to create custom outputs.
  • BPMN 2.0 Collaboration View: Provide a collaboration diagram view based on BPMN 2.0 specification; available in both Composer and Studio.

More Agile

  • Alter Flow: Alter Flow lets an appropriately privileged user alter the execution of a process by changing the process data and/or moving it to a different activity.
  • Instance Patching: Change the definition of process and patch in-flight instances to the new definition

More Complete

  • Broader UCM Integration: Process and task attachments can be easily managed in UCM and related metadata can be set from BPM.
  • Advanced Services Integration: Some of the more advanced services integration capabilities available in our BPEL product such as message based correlation and ability of a process instance to converse with multiple instances of another process or service are now available in BPMN. (The BPMN features are Correlations and Conversations).
  • Richer Human Workflow: New features including parametric roles, organization unit based role selection, sticky-user based assignment, and support for 4-eye principle (if a person did one task exclude them from another task) were added.  

Richer Process Analytics

  • Round-trip Simulation – Create simulation scenarios based on run time data.
  • BI Integration: Process specific views are automatically created on top of the process STAR schema to facilitate analysis using Oracle BI or any other BI tool.

Something for Developers Too

  • Draft Mode: Develop process incrementally by marking activities as draft or test a process while a service is offline.
  • Custom Log: Add custom messages to be added to the BPM log and audit trail.
  • Rule Test Framework: Easily create and run test cases for testing business rules (see chapter 8 of doc).
  • Enhanced Rule Audit Trail: Rule audit trail shows much more information including state of facts, rule stack, etc.
  • Workspace Customization: Easier customization of Workspace including skinning, disabling standard tabs, more fetaure rich custom tabs, custom links, and ability to customize Inbox.
  • Documented BPM APIs: In addition to the fabric and workflow APIs, BPM APIs are also documented (see javadoc).

Centric IT Solutions achieved an outstanding SOA implementation at Hilcona AG.:

September 12, 2011 Leave a comment

Our partner Centric IT Solutions achieved an outstanding SOA implementation at Hilcona AG.:

Oracle Customer: Hilcona AG
Location: Schaan, Liechtenstein
Industry: Consumer Goods
Employees: 1,000
Annual Revenue: $100 to $500 Million

Hilcona AG is a leading producer of fresh, deep-frozen, nonperishable food, and convenience products. Founded in 1935, the company exports 46% of its produce. With its fresh foods—such as pasta, pizza, sauces, and ready-made meals—Hilcona is a market leader in german-speaking europe.

A word from Hilcona AG
With the help of Oracle SOA Suite, we transformed our handheld warehouse solution and achieved far better performance, more comfortable handling, high flexibility, and full integration with our core, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, ERP system.” – Thomas Ritter, Head of Applications, Hilcona AG.

  • Replace a third-party data collection software used for registering all warehouse transactions of finished and semi-finished food products that was expensive to maintain and only provided point-to-point integration
  • Enhance performance of the existing handheld solution for storekeepers and provide better integration with the core enterprise resource planning (ERP) system
  • Enable seamless integration of process enhancements or new food products into a homogeneous and future-proof IT system

Oracle Product and Services

  • Worked with Oracle Partner Centric IT Solutions throughout the six month implementation, from scoping, to go-live support
  • Redesigned warehouse processes and implemented Oracle SOA suite to ensure transactional warehouse data is collected only once and reflected directly in the core ERP system, which is deployed on Oracle’s JD Edwards enterpriseOne
  • Leveraged Oracle SOA suite to develop communication scripts for handhelds used by warehouse employees to deliver instant bar-coded information to the core ERP system regarding warehouse transactions of finished and semifinished products, using standard Web technology with HTML visualization
