Before IoT became ‘The’ buzzword, there was M2M (machine to machine). Some industries still refer to IoT as M2M, but overall the term Internet of Things has become the norm. I like the term M2M because it describes better what IoT is meant to do: Machines talking to other machines. This year our team once again participated in the AT&T Developer Summit 2016hackathon. With M2M in our minds, we created a platform to allow machines and humans report extraordinary events in...

This article explains how the process of doing performance measurements of an OSB Proxy Service and presenting them in a “performance analysis document” was partly automated. After running a SoapUI based Test Step (sending a request to the service), extracting the service performance metrics was done by using the ServiceDomainMBean in the public API of the Oracle Service Bus. These service performance metrics can be seen in the Oracle Service Bus Console via the Service...

In a previous blog entry, I discussed how to create AngularJS applications that access the native resources on devices, such as the camera on Android, via Cordova. Let's now do the same thing with an Oracle JET application. Start by using Yeoman to scaffold your hybrid (i.e. Cordova-based) Oracle JET application. Now you're good to go with the instructions that follow. Take the following steps: In the "hybrid" folder in your application, you'll find a file named "config.xml",...

Oracle JET allows to build and run mobile hybrid applications. It is using Cordova to run on mobile device and provide access to device services. This is cool and what is great about it - it allows to get you started with mobile development in minutes. Besides all this - it is free. I will describe steps I followed, to generate JET mobile hybrid app and run it in local browser (in the next posts I will describe how to run it on simulator and actual device).First of all you...

Steven Davelaar did an interesting session last week at the AMIS conference about beacons. (Get his excellent slides here.) The world of beacons is split into iBeacons, AltBeacons, and URIBeacons (read here), though there'll probably be more. There's quite a few articles out there about incorporating beacon identifiers into MAF applications: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53569_01/tutorials/tut_jdev_maf_beacon/tut_jdev_maf_beacon_1.html https://blogs.oracle.com/mobile/entry/how_to_i...
