I am happy to announce our new BPM 11g Performance Tuning whitepaper is now available on OTN (here).  This white paper captures real world best practices from actual performance tuning exercises across many real BPM implementations – that’s ‘best practices’ in the sense that these are the things that we have found over time and over many engagements to give the best results. This whitepaper has been under development for quite a while now, and has been through a heap of...

BPM PS6 brings us closer to the power of BPM! One of the focus areas in this release is making it simpler for business people to draw the process, design input forms, test the process out in Process Player, to do simulations - all in a web interface.

The other thing I am looking forward to is OEP PS6 - The NoSQL-integration will be very...

If the MDS is a new thing for you then I advise to read my previous about this subject first. You can spot the presence of a file that is a reference to the MDS if it uses the oramds: URI annotation. Files are no longer...

In order to do business, companies need to buy and develop many applications. These applications help companies perform various functions. Usually, employees may need to access multiple applications to perform an end-to-end function or what we call a business process. Take, for example, Order Management. In order to take and complete an order, you may need to access CRM system, Inventory Management, Fulfillment, Shipping and Accounting systems. Most of the times these...

The Oracle Fusion Applications User Experience Design Patterns and Guidelines are out-of-the-box, developer productivity enablers. As ready-made, yet flexible, usability solutions, the patterns are easily applied when building Fusion applications and UI integrations in the cloud with the Oracle toolkit.
