Blockchain technology promises to make this possible. Blockchain became famous through cryptocurrency like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The technology could also be considered to replace B2B functionality. With new technologies it is not a bad idea to look at pro’s and con’s before starting an...

This week I deliver a BPM 12c Workshop, that I based on the 12.2.1.3 BPM QuickStart. When the students worked on the lab on Human Workflow, they hit an error deploying the Composite, where in the log you can find something like: Apparently in the repository of 12.2.1.3 a column is missing in the Workflow Metadata table.

You can use the left hand side filters and handle the actions in the tasks within the task screens. However, as with all of the ‘one-size-fits-all’ solutions, the tasklist might not be exactly what you need for your organisation or use-case. In this case it is good to know, that you can create your own custom tasklist. This...

In this blogpost I will share my first experiences monitoring a Fusion Middleware environment with Oracle Management Cloud (OMC). For this test drive I used a WebLogic SOA Domain running on a Virtual Box image on my local machine. OMC provides several components to monitor systems and infrastructures. I used the component Log Analytics. In order to upload log files from WebLogic Server to OMC an agent must be installed and configured on the target system. OMC defines different...
