Industrial SOA article at OTN and Service Technology Magazine

April 23, 2013 Leave a comment

SOA and service-orientation have laid the foundation for a variety of emergent service technology innovations, while the original building blocks of SOA and service-orientation continue to evolve by embracing fundamental service technologies, concepts and practices. These new technology innovations do not replace service-orientation; they use it as their basis.

Service-orientation continues to evolve towards a factory approach, towards industrializing integrated platforms, such as BI, master data management (MDM), mobile front-ends, BPM, adaptive processes, Big Data and Cloud Computing – all of which add architectural layers upon SOA-based infrastructure. All of these technologies can interface via standardized data and functions, published as service contracts, in order to avoid redundancy – that’s service-orientation. Let’s take a closer look. The amount of data, which companies produce and store tends to grow on an on-going basis. This includes structured data (for example, from ERP systems or data warehouses), as well as unstructured data (for example, from e-mails). With the rise of social media services like twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and the emphasis on Customer Experience Management, the amount of data and data sources has increased dramatically. To integrate all of these data sources through an SOA-approach is essential. The models, principles and patterns behind SOA and service-orientation can be applied to formalize interoperability between… read the full article here

With Oracle BPM Suite 11g PS6 the modeling, simulation, implementation and execution of business processes in a multi-user environment is straightforward – Danilo Schmiedel , OPITZ CONSULTING

April 22, 2013 Leave a comment

We know quite a few companies who are in the situation that processes are unpredictable, complex, difficult to model and versatile. Their software users complain that they cannot make proper business decisions because they are forced to certain process steps and their processes rely on worker knowledge and involve a lot of human participants. Think about a claim notification after a car accident – it is very difficult to model each potential option of it and a lot of effort and time is necessary to bring all varieties into the process. Think about the user interface – it has to be very dynamic in order to make optimal business decisions. With Oracle BPM Suite 11.1.1.7 and its new case management functionalities we are now ready to address requirements like those mentioned above. This is the base to provide complete BPM solutions. I couldn’t wait to play with the software and I am really happy to discuss and demonstrate the new product capabilities with our customers. Danilo Schmiedel , OPITZ CONSULTING

Connect to multiple SOA / BPM Virtual Machines from different computers in your network by Danilo Schmiedel

March 12, 2013 Leave a comment

Today I’d like to explain how to share instances of Oracle’s Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite across different computers in your network.

Three requirements I had to address:

Call of external services like GeoNames (http://www.geonames.org/postal-codes/) from within the BPM Suite VM
Connection to multiple BPM Suite VMs from Host (e.g. JDeveloper and Browser)
Connection to multiple BPM Suite VMs from different developer computers in the network
Share data between VMs and developer computers via FTP

The default options already support connections between host and client. However the target here was to address multiple independent VMs from different computers in the same network. The following settings worked in my environment:

1) Start the Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager and open network settings of the VM. Read the full article here.

Undeploy multiple SOA composites with WLST or ANT by Danilo Schmiedel

November 8, 2012 1 Comment

As part of our current project the Build Management team asked for a solution to undeploy multiple composites at one time. Of course you have the “Undeploy All from This Partition” menu option in Enterprise Manager but since we have a lot of deployments every day the guys wanted to have a script solution. It is even more important for the nightly deployments on our continuous integration environment – strange, we couldn’t find anybody who wants to do the undeployment via Enterprise Manager manually every night 😉
However with WLST or ANT the SOA Suite comes with two options to undeploy composites via script. In this article I’d like to explain you both ways.

Undeployment with WLST
You can test the steps below on Oracle’s Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g.

Change to the WLST directory under MIDDLEWARE_HOME/Oracle_SOA1/common/bin.
cd /oracle/fmwhome/Oracle_SOA1/common/bin/
Open WLST
./wlst.sh
Connect to the SOA server

Industrialized SOA – topic of Business Technology Magazine

September 13, 2012 Leave a comment

Although it has become quieter around SOA, the concept is not buried at all. On the contrary, over the years it has reached a new maturity level. Hypes such as Cloud Computing and Big Data have pushed SOA out of the headlines; however “the new hypes have not replace service orientation, but built on it.” The authors of this edition rank among to the SOA pioneers in Germany. They have gathered their collective knowledge for this issue and created a unique picture of the current state of SOA. According to them SOA has developed evolutionarily towards industrialization, towards a holistic platform – and thus towards a new Industrialized SOA.
