Understand Decision Model Views

November 11, 2020 Leave a comment

image

In Processes, you can work on a decision model using either the graph view or the list view. When you create a new decision model, you’re presented with the graph view by default. You can switch to the list view and vice versa using the Menu button in the toolbar.

Note: The decision models that you’ve created previously will continue to use the list view as the default view. If you switch to the graph view, you’ll need to redefine the relationships between decisions and input data elements. Similarly, you’ll have to redefine the order of the decisions if you switch from the graph view to the list view.

Topics:

· Graph View

· List View

Graph View

In the graph view, you can create decision requirement diagrams (DRD), in accordance with the DMN standard, to visually represent your decision models.

In decision modeling, a decision requirement graph (DRG) is a self-contained representation of an entire domain of decision-making that displays the important elements in the domain and the relationships between the elements. Whereas, a decision requirement diagram typically depicts a specific view of a DRG; the view depicted can either be partial or complete.

Processes currently supports one DRD per decision model. The following table lists all the available DRD components, which you can use to create your decision models.  Read the complete article here.

Receive and send WSA Properties in BPEL 2.0 by Martien van den Akker

November 10, 2020 Leave a comment

imageLast week I had the honor to present on CorrelationSets in a Virtual Meetup, which is a feature that relates to the WS-Addressing support of SOA Suite. At my current customer, I had to rebuild a BPEL Process from 1.1 to 2.0, to be able to split it up using embedded and reusable  subprocesses. One requirement is to receive the wsa-Action property and reply it back, concatenated with ‘Response’. Since it implements a WSDL with 3 operations, I need a Pick-OnMessage construction. To receive properties you can open the activity, in my case the OnMessage: In the source his looks like the following: Read the complete article here.

A little bit of insight in SOA Suite future by Martien van den Akker

November 8, 2020 Leave a comment

A few weeks ago I was made aware of a few announcements, which I think makes sense and that I want to pass on to my followers, sauced with a bit of my own perspective.

Containerized SOA

Last year I had made myself familiar with the Oracle Weblogic Kubernetes Operator. See for instance my Cheat Sheet Serie. I also had the honor to talk about it during the Tech Summit at OUK in December ’19. Weblogic under Kubernetes is apparently the way to go for Weblogic. And with that, also the Fusion Middleware Stack. However, until now only ‘plain’ Weblogic is supported under Kubernetes, on all Cloud platforms, as well as on your own on-premises Kubernetes platform. It was no surprise that SOA Suite would follow, and in March there an early access for SOA Suite on Kubernetes was announced.

In the announcement it is stated that Oracle will provide Container images for SOA Suite including OSB, that are also certified for deployment on production Kubernetes environments. Also documentation, support files, deployment scripts and samples. Later on other components will be certified. This is good news, because it will allow SOA Suite be run in co-existence with cloud native applications and be part of a more heterogenous application platform. To me this makes sense. It makes High Availability and Disaster Recovery easier, but although the application landscape will be diverse and heterogenous, this makes the maintenance, install, deploy and upgrade of FMW within that landscape more uniformly aligned with other application compents like web applications, possible microservices, etc. Read the complete article here.

Promoting Your Code by Antony Reynolds

November 7, 2020 Leave a comment

image

A few years ago my wife and I were honored to be invited to our friends promotion ceremony. By hard work, dedication and outstanding leadership he was promoted to a full Colonel in the US Air Force. Fortunately when promoting integrations between environments it is a lot less work.

Environments

We usually have multiple environments for our code. Some possible environments are listed below:

  • Development for building integrations.
  • Test for testing integrations.
  • Production for running integrations.

Other possible environment might include

  • QA for final acceptance testing
  • Load Test for performance testing.

Promotion Requirements

When promoting code between environments some key features are worth bearing in mind.

  • Same code should be deployed to production that was tested – no changes.
    • This is important because we want to deploy to production what we tested in development and test/qa.
  • Configuration data should be separate from code – each environment will have its own unique endpoints.
    • This is important because we don’t want to accidentally store production data in test or development systems.

OIC Features to Support Code Promotion

OIC allows individual integrations to be exported. Each integration includes dependent artifacts such as lookup tables, JavaScript libraries and connection types. Note that it does not include connection endpoints or credentials as these will vary between systems. To simplify deployment multiple integrations can be bundled into a package. Read the complete article here.
