We used to have heated debates whether to use SOA Suite or Service Bus. With the release of Oracle’s Platform as a Service (PaaS) products like Integration Cloud Service (ICS) and SOA Suite Cloud Service (SOA CS), this discussion is fueled with even more options.

We previously showed you how to create an Oracle Application Builder Cloud Service application that reference Oracle Sales Cloud data and create additional custom UIs and objects. The next logical step that you might want to do is include that application as an integral part in your Oracle Sales Cloud application. You can actually embed the full ABCS app as either its own menu option, or even as one more tab on an existing object like this: Below we have a video that shows you...
