An Introduction to Oracle’s Integration Cloud Service (ICS) by Jennie DeRosa

clip_image002Overview

Last month, Oracle made available their latest tool within their integration cloud strategy, Integration Cloud Service (ICS).  With the number of SaaS applications growing, the need to integrate is becoming more important, making ICS even more relevant.

The intended usage of ICS are implementations of simple, light weight integrations between SaaS applications.  It resides within the cloud, is built off the Oracle Service Bus, and is available on a monthly subscription basis.

Pre-built solutions will be available in the marketplace (think app store), allowing for reusable integrations to be purchased, implemented in an accelerated manner. This will provide the option to reuse existing integrations as-is, or build on top of the existing, customizing for your business integration needs. If the pre-built solutions don’t meet your integration needs, the capability to develop your own from scratch is always on option. Either way, the development of an integration within ICS can be done using the capabilities detailed in this article.

Within ICS, there are 4 aspects: Integrations, Connections, Lookups, and Packages. Each of these will be discussed in further detail.

Integrations

Developing integrations between SaaS applications is done in ICS via a web based tool. Using drag and drop capabilities, an integration can easily be defined. Since the tool is built on top of OSB, the functions defined within the VETO (validate, enrich, transform, and operation) integration design pattern are available for implementation: Read the complete article here.

Oracle Cloud: ICS by Frank Munz

clip_image002Quite a while ago (a year before Larry announced the Oracle Public Cloud) I wrote about SaaS applications and a service bus PaaS to interconnect services: “… services are integrated and virtualized by a service bus in the cloud and orchestrated by a workflow system in the cloud [Oracle Middleware and Cloud Computing] “.

Back then it almost seemed like building castles in Spain. Indeed it took several years to build the PaaS service – yet today Thomas Kurian and Larry Ellison announce Oracle’s ICS. Now it’s out there with all the agility that comes with a cloud based solution.

It’s the cloud! So get a test account, play with it, scale it and try to break it!

Let me know what you think using @frankmunz and add: @soacommunity.

Estafet Opinion on the new Integration Cloud Service from Oracle

 

clip_image001Integration Expert Phil McLaughlin takes a look at the new cloud solution from Oracle.

Last week Oracle announced its long awaited iPaaS Integration Cloud Service (ICS) and Process Cloud Service (PCS). As integration experts, Estafet looked at these exciting new products and assessed how they will affect the integration market.

If you are interested in finding out more, come along to our event on the 24th July at the Royal Exchange London. We will delve deeper into the technology, including a live demo of ICS

The iPaaS market has been dominated by providers such as Dell Boomi, Snaplogic and Mulesoft all taking slightly different approaches towards integrating SaaS applications in the cloud. Oracle has now entered this market providing a comprehensive set of solutions of its own.  In this blog we examine Integration Cloud service (ICS), in later blogs we will look at some of the others.

So how does Oracle ICS fare against the competition?

Oracle ICS makes most sense if you already have Oracle SaaS applications that need point-to-point integrations in the cloud, or integrations to on-premise solutions (ideally using OSB) to form a hybrid cloud solution.

Many companies have one or two SaaS applications that require linking either to each other, or to existing service bus-based backend systems, and ICS is ideal for this. The Oracle SaaS endpoints that belong to the company are made available in the development environment, meaning the development of the integrations are quick and simple.

Alternative Cloud Models for Partners

clip_image002

Summary: Did you know that Oracle actually offers four different application cloud models? Use your cloud model choice to differentiate from your competition by providing a unique value proposition your competitors are not selling.
Take Action: Watch this short video then schedule a cloud model choice workshop and learn how to optimize model features and deliver a solution with greater value.

Oracle has cloud model options where partners can market end of term perpetual license rights, products not on the Oracle Cloud price list, hybrid op-ex/cap-ex structures, a “bring your own license” solution, or spread the partners upfront services costs over the solution term even while the partner recovers these fees upfront.  Take advantage of these features now to win more business.

Oracle PaaS, a racecar placed at pole position by Leon Smiers

 

clip_image001With the announcement on June 22nd of Larry Ellison around Oracle SaaS, PaaS and IaaS we are left with the question, where are we now in Oracle PaaS and what can we expect the coming year(s)? 
Oracle is moving at a rapid pace from an ‘on-premise’ software/hardware provider to everything-contained-in-the-cloud; and is now embracing the Cloud. There is some humor in it since not so long ago back in 2009, Larry was still bashing the cloud, as being water vapor. "All it is, is a computer attached to a network…”. Up until 2013, the large yearly conference, Oracle Open World was dominated with Larry’s hobby, covering Oracle hardware EXA machines, and making them run faster with every release. But last year we began to see the first outlines of what Oracle really planned to do in the cloud. And, as always, if Oracle has set their mind on something, every means available are set in place to reach that goal. In my direct contacts with the Process Cloud team, 70% of that specific team was dedicated to put BPM in the cloud.
All middleware and database related software, that we are accustomed to run ‘on-premise’ at our customers, will now be made available in the cloud. This, of course, is not an overnight job. The first releases of the PaaS Cloud will contain base functionality, as Larry phrased it ‘I’m not saying we have no things to be improved. The beauty of the Cloud is that, since Oracle is responsible for the environments, releases with new / improved functionality will be made available at a faster pace. One outstanding feature compared to the on-premise software is the simplicity of using the product. The product development team has moved a lot of complexity to the background, enabling speed for development and deployment. Another advantage for partners and customers is that flaws in the software are now also obvious to Oracle themselves in a much faster manner than we were used to with the on-premise stack. So apart from the movement towards the cloud, Oracle is now also dedicating their time to improving quality of the software. Read the complete article here.
