Efficient usage of version control has specific requirements to allow identification of versions and synchronous development on different branches. Design time you will want to have your Service Bus projects in a single application in order to allow usage of shared objects. At deploy-time or when creating a release, you want to group SCA composites together with Service Bus projects. How do you combine these different requirements? In this article I’ll describe several...

This post is supposed to provide improved solution for the approach described previously - ADF and Oracle JET - Integration Pattern with ADF Regions. Many thanks to John Brock, Product Manager for Oracle JET, for his proactive comments and suggestions.I have changed it to JET rendering in ADF, instead of integration. Perhaps word 'integration' is too strong in this context. You should not mix two frameworks together, like trying to render data from ADF bindings in JET...

While testing the Maven build scripts I shared in my previous post, I found a few issues while building more complex composite projects.  Both of the issues I found were related to included Java code in the project. One of which has a work around while the other does not. The first issue was with using the Java Embedding activity in a BPEL process.  This results in a Java class being generated for the BPEL process, which then was failing to compile. The second issue was with...

If you want to get started with OracleJET, the purest way is to download only the base distribution package and then create a HTML5/JS app in NetBeans. This creates a very plain app: an empty canvas ready for you to pour your code into from scratch. But if you’re looking to see (and possibly steal ideas from) some working code, the easiest way is to use NetBeans 8.1’s QuickStart Template and let it download the Basic Starter Template zip file to build out a project for you....

An artifact repository has many benefits for collaboration and governance of artifacts. In this blog post I will illustrate how you can fetch SCA composites and Service Bus artifacts from an artifact repository and deploy them. The purpose of this exercise is to show that you do not need loads of custom scripts to do these simple tasks. Why re-invent a wheel when Oracle already provides it? This example has been created for SOA Suite 12.1.3. This will not work as-is for 11g...

While there are many JavaScript frameworks and libraries to choose from,  few cover all the typical requirements for enterprise applications. This article by Oracle ACE Director Andreas Koop examines Oracle JET’s potential as an enterprise-grade framework for end-to-end client-side web application development, and then shows you how to get started building your first JET application. It was one of the great announcements at Open World 2015: Oracle JET, the JavaScript Extension...

We’ve been talking about this for a couple years now, but finally did it. The idea is to take the very popular Open World panel session called “Oracle SOA Suite Tips and Tricks from Oracle Engineering and A-team” and bring this content to a much wider audience via webinar. We tested the waters with the first webinar in Jan, 2016 and it was even more successful than we had hoped. We are now extending this into a larger series, to promote sharing of knowledge and expertise with...

Developer Cloud Service 15.4.5 is now available with many new features. Since it's inception, Developer Cloud Service has focused on developer productivity providing teams with functionality to advance their development and the ability to release products flexibly / securely, quickly / confidently, and at a lower cost because the latest tools and infrastructure are provisioned within seconds in Oracle's Cloud. This entry will provide a brief overview of the the new...

Overview Implementing composite sensors within a SOA solution provides the ability to define trackable fields on messages and enables you to find a specific composite instance by searching for a field or fields within a message. For example, a sensor could be defined for an invoice number within a message, thus allowing us to search and find the instance where the invoice number in question is found. While this functionality is not new within Oracle SOA Suite 12c, there are...
