You’ve Got Mail: Inbound Email Processing in WLS/OSB integration scenarios by The Cattle Crew

November 3, 2014 Leave a comment

In an integration project we are currently replacing an available integration platform using Oracle Service Bus 11g. Different incoming and outgoing message formats and protocols (HTTP, FTP, SMTP, etc.) are used from the external partners of our customer and therefore have to be supported. With OSB no problem at all, but polling a MS Exchange server for new e-mails is simply not possible with OSB standard tooling. Debt is a bug in MS Exchange server, which advertises that it supports plain authentification for login, but it does not ([1], search for AUTH=PLAIN). So when trying to access an exchange inbox from a proxy service ends up with failures, which cannot be worked around.
So we decided to implement a custom Java service that does the polling, because with plain Java the bug can be worked around by setting the corresponding Java Mail session parameters described in [1]. The challenge from a implementation perspective is that in a clustered environment, a service is in general active on all cluster nodes and so parallel access and therefore multi processing for one specific e-mail is possible. So the service has to be implemented as a Weblogic Singleton service [2] to avoid this. A Singleton service is physically deployed to the cluster and so available on all nodes, but it is only active on one specific cluster node. In case of problems on the node where the service is active, it might be activated on another node in the cluster automatically, depending on the failover configuration in the cluster.

Oracle SOA Suite for healthcare integration Dashboard By Nitesh Jain

November 7, 2012 Leave a comment

Oracle SOA Suite Healthcare came up with a new way of monitoring where user can configure a dashboard and follow the dynamic runtime changes. Oracle SOA Suite for healthcare integration dashboards display information about the current health of the endpoints in a healthcare integration application. You can create and configure multiple dashboards as needed to monitor the status and volume metrics for the endpoints you have defined. The Dashboards reflects changes that occur in the runtime repository, such as purging runtime instance data, new messages processed, and new error messages. You can display data for various time periods, and you can manually refresh the data in real time or set the dashboard to automatically refresh at set intervals.
Dashboard shows the following information:

  • Status: The current status of the endpoint, such as Running, Idle, Disabled, or Errors.
  • Messages Sent: The number of messages sent by the endpoint in the specified time period.
  • Messages Received: The number of messages received by the endpoint in the specified time period.
  • Errors: The number of messages with errors for the endpoint in the given time period.
  • Last Sent: The date and time the last message was sent from the endpoint.
  • Last Received: The date and time the last message was received from the endpoint.
  • Last Error: The date and time of the last error for the endpoint.

It also shows the detailed view of a specific Endpoint.

  • The document type.
  • The number of messages received per second.
  • The total number of message processed in the specified time period.
