Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) – the cloud platform for Integration and Automation by Niall Commiskey

image

Here a simple example, concentrating on Integration and Process.
The use case – user enters a new organization via a form, PCS is called too kick off an approvals process, if approved – call ICS to create the Organization in Service Cloud.

I begin by creating an Integration that accepts an organization name(String), maps that to the Name field in the Service Cloud Organization business object and then creates the Organization in Service Cloud.
I click on the Integrations link above to enter the Integration design time – yes, it is ICS. Read the complete article here.

Promote Standards to Create Great APIs by Robert Wunderlich

image

When I moved from Development to Product Management, one of my first assignments was to create tools that helped developers build SOA services following prescribed patterns. Simply put, we had a "best practice" and we wanted to help developers leverage it easily and repeatedly. My main motivation was to lift the burden of compliance through automation. I still believe that automation promotes compliance.

Fast-forward to the present with microservices, and APIs, we see the need for a design-first approach with standards is even more critical than ever. This was one of the many reasons I was excited when Oracle acquired Apiary because I knew that Apiary enables teams to create great APIs.

A great example of this is presented in Creating the New: Adidas APIs from the Nordic APIs 2017 platform summit that took place in Stockholm, Sweden on October 11th of this year. Oldrich Novak from Adidas, and Zdenek "Z" Nemec from GoodAPI gave a great presentation about implementing a well defined approach to APIs.

I’d like to highlight some of the points from their session, but I really do suggest you find the time to watch it for yourself to learn even more. Read the complete article here.

2nd vs 3rd Generation API Platforms – A Comprehensive Comparison by Luis Augusto Weir

image 

Earlier in the year, June to be exact, I published the OTN article 3rd-Generation API Management: From Proxies to Micro-Gateways -based on a concept I presented in an Oracle OpenWorld 2016 Presentation titled API management in the year 2026.
In summary, the article talks about how in the digital era requirements have changed when it comes to getting access to information. Fact that modern applications demand information in real time and expect it to be available 24×7, and also the side effect of cloud adoption which is causing information to become more and more federated amongst multiple cloud applications (from different vendors) and on-premises systems -as they won’t go away that easily.
The article continues by explaining that although REST APIs play a critical role in providing such critical access, the underlaying technology stack that have traditionally enabled SOA architectures, typically based on monolithic middleware, will struggle to satisfy the aforementioned needs. The article concludes by explaining that a new form of platform, one that is light-weight, portable, hybrid and cloud-agnostic, REST/JSON native, Microservices Architecture ready, a 3rd generation, is ultimately required.
