On Monday night we obtained access to the SOA Cloud Service here at Flexagon, where we hope to use it for on-demand capacity.  One of our goals with FlexDeploy is to make it easy to move components from one environment or instance to another, enabling a true “lift-and-shift” into the cloud.  Since the SOA Cloud Service is built on top of the same underlying Oracle infrastructure, configuring it as a FlexDeploy target is a breeze. In this blog article, I will cover how to...

I thought cloud computing would do away with acronym-laden technologies such as service-oriented architecture (SOA). Can’t you just sign up for applications run in a public cloud? You can, but what happens when you want to integrate that shiny new cloud app with your existing applications and data?

This figure illustrates what this article describes: The steps we go through in this article are: Create the Node.js application with...

SOA 12.2.1 provides support for end-to-end JSON and Javascript. We don’t have do internal mapping between XML and JSON as in 12.1.3. As part of this post, let us implement a simple REST service to demonstrate this new feature – End to End JSON with Javascript. Let us create a very simple SOA Composite which exposes a JSON based REST interface, manipulates the values using Javascript and calls an external JSON based service. Rest Service External JSON Service Setup For external...
