Flow Trace with SOA Composites and Service Bus

• Shows individual state of components in a transaction

• Easy to Identify recovered instances

Service Bus is now visible in end-to-end flow trace

59

Service Bus Pipeline

• Proxy Service has been split into two components:– Proxy Service– Pipeline (and possibly multiple pipelines)

Pipeline Templates and Placeholders

Pipelines templates can be used to design prototype flows for proxy services

• Concrete pipeline inherits the message flow from pipeline template

Placeholders – where modifications may be placed in the pipeline template

SOA Design-Time MDS Repository:Share artifacts within & across applications

Wizard to share design time artifacts such as WSDLs and Schemas

Moves the artifacts and its dependencies to Design-Time MDS (viz. schema with WSDL)

Updates all the references to the transferred artifacts with MDS URLs on transfer

66

Native Format Translation

• File Adapter can do translation from and to CSV and Positional File Format XML

• In 12c both Service Bus (Pipeline activity) and Mediator (step in Routing Rule) can perform such native to XML vv. transformation– The contents from an XML element can be converted to XML itself (and vv.)– The contents from an outbound HTTP call or Adapter action can be turned into XML

Challenges and Requirements for WOA/MOA

• REST & JSON for easy access• Caching to handle the load and provide 24/7

– availability mismatch between UI and back end

• Filter data - at right level – data context/authorization

• Minimize number of network requests – Invoke presentation services rather than accessing entity service

• Handle Offline/Online synchronization• Support push notifications• Personal cloud for user specific data and cross device experience

– Preferences and customizations, search & navigation history, in flight ‘transactions’

SCA Composite – BPEL Subprocess

• InlineSub Process– Inline – callable scope - with input

and output parameters, access to global variables, recursive support and local variable context

– Create from existing Scope (convert to inline subprocess)

• Stand Alone Subprocess– new SCA Component Type– Can be invoked multiple times from

different components

75

SCA Composite – Templates

• Templates at three levels:– SOA Project Template

– Component Template

– Custom Activity Template

• Templates in SCA Composites are resuable snippets

that are copied when used

– They lose their reference to their origin and updates to the template are not inherited

– Use them primarily for a ‘quick start based on best practices’

• Store in MDS and reuse for/in any application

Component

Integration Debugger

• Same experience across BPEL, Service Bus• Local or remote debugging• View payloads (including non-XML) • Set break points• Change variables while debugging

12c SOA Tester

• Develop & test without switching to EM

• Auto generate input message or load from sample

• Assert request, response, and fault messages

• Emulate response & fault messages

• Delayed emulation

• Accelerate execution using fast

forwards

12c Connectivity – new adapters

• Cloud – Salesforce.com

• UMS (SMS, IM, Email)

• LDAP

• MSMQ

• Coherence

Oracle Cloud Adapter for Salesforce.com

Reduce Cloud Integration Complexity• Graphical API discovery• Security• Session management• Schemas• Optimization of operations• Inbound and outbound• SDK to extend

80

New SOA Suite products: ESS

• ESS – Enterprise Scheduling Service– Schedule jobs and monitor execution

• PL/SQL, EJB, Web Service, (local) Java, command line• SOA Suite administrative operations: bulk recovery, bulk purge,

enable/disable inbound adapter

– Integrates with BPEL: invoke ESS to schedule a job

Scheduling Fault Recovery Operations

• Bulk recovery/abort operations can be scheduled from error hospital

• Progress can be monitored from Enterprise Scheduler dashboard

82

New SOA Suite products: MFT

• MFT – Managed File Transfer– Transfer files in a controlled way –not through the

SCA engine or Service Bus run time– between a source and one or more targets– core of MFT is an “embedded” sFTP/SSH service– optimized for large files and supports HA cluster,

PGP encryption, auditing and monitoring of files– transfers are easily extensible using the

pre/post processing framework– file transfers can trigger a SOA Composite

and a SOA Composite can engage an MFT operation• Also integrates with B2B, ODI, Healthcare and others

83

Summary

• Functionality, Industrialization, Productivity, Cloud, Consolidation & Mobile

• Most striking new features– Quick Start (JDeveloper & Integrated WLS is all you need)– Service Bus integrated into JDeveloper and Enterprise Manager FMW Control– Templates, Debugging and Refactoring in SB and SOA composites– Coherence and LDAP Adapter– Enterprise Scheduler, Managed File Transfer– Robust & reliable Event Delivery Network– Improved Business metrics and BAM (Business Activity Monitoring)– Mobile enablement & Cloud support through REST & JSON support– Much improved IDE & run time UI (for example SOA Composer for Business Rules,

JDeveloper IDE for Event Processing)– Business Architecture modeling in BPM Composer

• After dinner: in-depth feature discussions and demonstrations
