Verifying Your White List is Working A lot of customers require all outbound connections from systems to be validated against a whitelist. This article explains the different types of whitelist that might be applied and why they are important to Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC). Whitelisting means that if a system is not specifically enabled then its internet access is blocked.

We were recently doing some work on a system, actually a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) endpoint, that generated unique JSON messages for each type of request. So a single interface would expect different objects, depending on the request. The target system actually required a small orchestration to submit a single request and so ideally a single integration would abstract the interface to that service. To help reify things, here is an example: Request One Create Order...

Maintaining a Clean SOA Suite Test EnvironmentFun blog entry with Fantasia animated gifs got me thinking like Mickey about how nice it would be to automate clean up tasks.I don’t have a sorcerers castle to clean up but I often have a test environment which I use to run tests, then after fixing problems that I uncovered in the tests I want to run them again. The problem is that all the data from my previous test environment is still there.Now in the past I used VirtualBox...

Share & Enjoy : Sharing Resources through MDSOne of my favorite radio shows was the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by the sadly departed Douglas Adams. One of the characters, Marvin the Paranoid Android, was created by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation whose corporate song was entitled Share and Enjoy! Just like using the products of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation, reusing resources through MDS is not fun, but at least it is useful and avoids some problems in SOA...

Running Multiple SOA Developers from a Single InstallA question just came up about how to run multiple developers from a single software install. The objective is to have a single software installation on a shared server and then provide different OS users with the ability to create their own domains. This is not a supported configuration but it is attractive for a development environment.Out of the BoxBefore we do anything special lets review the basic installation.Oracle...

Review of Oracle WebLogic Server 12c Advanced Administration CookbookLike all of Packts cookbook titles, the book follows a standard format of a recipe followed by an explanation of how it works and then a discussion of additional recipe related features and extensions.When reading this book I tried out some of the recipes on an internal beta of 12.1.2 and they seemed to work fine on that future release.The book starts with basic installation instructions that belie its...

Who Owns What Port?It is not uncommon to be unable to start a server process because some other process is holding onto a network port that is required by the server. The question is how do you find the offending process? I thought I would identify some of the commands I use to track down wayward port usage.Identify the ConflictThe first thing to do is to identify the port that is being used. Hopefully your log file will indicate which port the server process was unable to...

Configuring JDeveloper for use with CoherenceDoing some work with Coherence again and so I needed to create some Java code calling Coherence API and edit some Coherence configuration files in JDeveloper. The easiest way to do this is to register the Coherence jar file and the Coherence Schemas with JDeveloper, once that is done then you can use JDevelopers XML insight features to help you create the XML documents.Register the Coherence LibraryTo register the Coherence jar...

Adding Structure to Flat XML DocumentsA friend recently was wondering how to convert a flat document structure to a more structured form.The type of flat structure is shown in the diagram below:The deptNo and deptName fields repeat for each employee in the department.This would be better represented as a structured format like the one shown below: Note that the department details are now represented once per department and employees appear in a sequence called emp. This is a...
