We are proud to announce that Oracle has been named a Leader in the 2021 Gartner “Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service” report for five consecutive years.

Read the Press Release: Oracle Named a Leader Five Years Running in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service.

According to Gartner, “Enterprise integration platform as a service (EiPaaS) is a combination of integration technology functionalities that are delivered as a suite of cloud services and designed to support enterprise-class integration initiatives. An EiPaaS provider offers high availability, disaster recovery, security, SLAs and technical support. It also enables users to develop and execute multiple integration scenarios by providing support for multiple personas. The EiPaaS vendor must fully manage platform operations, patching and upgrades.”

We are grateful to our global ecosystem of customers and partners for helping us deliver what it takes to speed time to value and increase the collaboration between technical and business experts with rapid iteration. Speed, reliability, scalability, and cost reduction are what we’ve heard matter most to enterprise modernization success.

  • “There were 2,000+ applications across these three companies. Being able to leverage out-of-the-box was a key factor for us.” – Bill Roy, Senior Director of EPM and Business Intelligence at Western Digital
  • “Point to point integrations were taking us 31 days, and that’s a significant amount of software development and engineering time. After Oracle Integration, that whole process is down to one or two days and it’s repeatable and it’s scalable.” – Marc Murphy, CEO at Atlatl Software
  • “All the data flow between stores and manufacturing is much easier because the systems know each other very well.” – Luca Del Din, Senior Vice President Retail EMEA at Luxottica. Read the complete article here.

Synchronous versus Fire-and-Forget Process to Process Invocation by Jan Kettenis

imageIn the following article I explain why you should implement a Structured to Structured Process call as synchronous when you need that call to be recoverable in case of an issue.

To call a Structured Process (that is initiated by a Message Start event) from another one, there are 2 ways to do so (actually there are 3 if you count in the Micro Process feature but that is a variation of one of these, I suspect the first):

  • Using the /ic/api/process/v1/processes API
  • Using the WSDL of the called process

I typically do the latter, as I find it to be simpler than using the API because importing the WSDL involves an automatic import of the XSD schema containing the request definition. Copy & paste of the WSDL URL and you’re done and when the interface changes, all I have to do is re-import the schema (in contrast, when using the API I have to manually figure out the proper JSON sample).

However, whichever way you use both concern a web service based interface, which you can configure to invoke in one of two ways:

  • As Fire-and-Forget
  • As synchronous (request/response)

Question is which one to use? The answer is simple: use synchronous in case there is no callback and you want to be sure the invocation either succeeds or can be recovered when it fails. If you don’t care, use Fire-and-Forget. Read on to find out why.
First let me point out the Fire-and-Forget Enterprise Integration Pattern. As it will tell you, in case of Fire-and-Forget error handling is not possible and you would need some Guaranteed Delivery mechanism to prevent the risk of losing messages. Mind that web service based invocation is not message based (which would involve using a Message Channel and with that typically an Invalid Message Channel to capture bad messages). So, in case of Fire-and-Forget there will be the risk of running into a non-recoverable error (hence the conclusion). OIC has no "magic feature" supporting recovery from failed invocations to Fire-and-Forget web services. And mind you, this is consistent with the pattern. Read the complete article here.
