After looking into how to run a Spring-Boot based Microservice application on Oracle’s Application Container Cloud service, this post will concentrate on Oracle Container Cloud Service. In short, Oracle Container Cloud Service is Oracle’s enterprise-grade container infrastructure solution. It provides features to compose, deploy, orchestrate and manage Docker container-based applications. In contrast to Oracle Application Container Cloud Service customers can...

  Introduction In many enterprise integration scenarios there is a requirement to initiate tasks at scheduled times or at user defined intervals. The Oracle Integration Cloud Service (ICS) provides scheduling functionality via the Oracle Enterprise Scheduler to satisfy these types of requirements.  The Oracle Enterprise Scheduler Service (ESS) is primarily a Java EE application that provides time-based and schedule-based callbacks to other applications to run their jobs. Oracle...

The Chaos Computer Club e. V. (CCC) hosts their conference once a year. The first time it took place in Leipzig last month. It’s a great mixture of IT topics and related digital society topics. When it’s cold, dark and rainy outside you can watch some of the YouTube videos here: · 34C3 - Dude, you broke the Future! · 34C3 - Ladeinfrastruktur für Elektroautos: Ausbau statt Sicherheit - english translation · 34C3 - Inside Intel Management Engine · 34C3 - Die fabelhafte Welt des...

When monitoring and/or troubleshooting the ICS Connectivity Agent server, it is important to not only have the standard logs (e.g., AdminServer-diagnostic.log) but also the standard out/error (stdout/stderr).  One of the big challenges of capturing the stdout is not exhausting the disk storage over time.  Since the ICS Connectivity Agent is a WebLogic server installation, there are out-of-the-box options available for redirecting the stdout/stderr (see WebLogic Server logging...

Oracle Application Container Cloud service allows for microservices to be hosted using programming languages like Java SE, NodeJS, PHP and Python. Future plans include support for Ruby. An earlier post provided an overview and compared this to Oracle Container Cloud Service. The applications run in a Docker container behind the scenes and is expected to expose a service port. By configuring metadata, access can be setup to other Oracle Cloud services like database, storage,...

In our book we talked about the difference between the agents offered by ICS, namely the Connection  and Execution agents. Whilst we differentiated the two, we did focus on the connection agent as this is the type we expect to see used in most cases. However the execution agent still suffers from a level of confusion, and it has been helped by being called  ‘ICS on-premises’. As part of a number of recent conversations the questions and confusion of what the execution agent...

  It's time to take Java EE 8 for a spin and try out Glassfish 5 builds on Docker using Oracle Container Cloud. Java EE specifications covered Server Sent Events in JAX-RS 2.1 (JSR 370) - new in Java EE 8 Asynchronous Events in CDI 2.0 (JSR 365) - new in Java EE 8 Websocket 1.1 (JSR 356) - part of the existing Java EE 7 specification Application Here is a quick summary of what's going on A Java EE scheduler triggers asynchronous CDI events (fireAsync()) These CDI events are qualified...
