  Most organizations when migrating to Oracle SOA 12c or Oracle BPM 12s choose to perform a side-by-side upgrade, as it: requires zero downtime, supports all SOA and BPM components, allows for a phased migration, involves significantly less risk. This involves provisioning a new instance of SOA 12c, replicating the configurations from your 11g platform and migrating and deploying your code. Once ready, you then switch over from 11g to 12c. Most organizations fail to maintain...

  Applications and framework libraries running on WebLogic produce logging at various levels: error, warning, information, debug (fine and finer). WebLogic allows us to specify what level of logging should be written to the log files. Under normal circumstances administrators will probably require no more than error or perhaps warning level. In times of problematic behavior when more detailed analysis is required, we may want to switch to finer grained logging output. It is...

  Objective: To have a basic level of authentication on web services (especially where there's no transport layer security) without having to pass clear text passwords in the WS Security headers. Background: The concepts are fairly generic but this post is highly Oracle Fusion middleware/SOA Suite specific.

A richer, faster and leaner user experience can be achieved, functionality is sometimes much harder or even virtually impossible...

  Here another short tech tip Another issue I encountered is not yet identified at MOS, not in the context I encountered it. The error was written to the logs every minute: <Error> <oracle.wsm.resources.policymanager> <WSM-02084> <Access denied. Permission "oracle.wsm.security.PolicyManagerPermission" is required to access the wsm policy manager "UsageTracker" method "recordUsage".> The only MOS reports on this was partially applicable for my situation: Bug 23279489 : WSM-02084...
