Best practices for search service in a sharepont farm

Hi
in a sharepoint web application there is many BI dashboards are deployed and also we have plan to
configure enterprise search for this application.
in our sharepoint 2010 farm we have
2 application server s
2 WFE servers
here one application server is running
c.a + webanalytics service and itself is a domain controller
second application server is for only running secure store service+ Performance point service only
1 - here if we run search server service in second application server can any issues to BI performance and
2 - its best practice to run Performance point service and search service in one server
3 -also is it best practice to run search service in a such a application server where already other services running
and where we have only one share point web application need to be crawled and indexed with below crawl schedule.
here we only run full crawl per week and incremental crawl at midnight daily
adil

Hi adil,
Based on your description, you want to know the best practices for search service in a SharePoint farm.
Different farms have different search topologies, for the best search performance, I recommend that you follow the guidance for small, medium, and large farms.
The article is about the guidance for different farms.
Search service can run with other services in the same server, if condition permits and you want to have better performance for search service and other services including BI performance, you can deploy search service in dedicated server.
If condition permits, I recommend combining a query component with a front-end Web server to avoid putting crawl components and query components on the same serve.
In your SharePoint farm, you can deploy the query components in a WFE server and the crawl components in an application server.
The articles below describe the best practices for enterprise search.

Best Practices for Using Service Controller for Entity Framework Database

I'm running into an issue in my first time creating a Web Service with a .NET backend with Azure. I designed a database in Entity Framework and had it create the models, but I couldn't create a controller for the table unless I made the model inherit from
EntityData. Here's the catch, the Database Model has int Id, but EntityData has string Id, so, of course, I'm getting errors. What is best practice for what I'm trying to do?
Michael DiLeo

hi Michael,
Thanks for you posting!
Sorry for I am not totally understanding your issue. Maybe two points need your confirm:
1. I confuse with the "Service controller"? IS your meaning MVC controller? Or ServiceController(http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/31688/Using-the-ServiceController-in-C-to-stop-and-start
2.whether The type of ID in the model is match to the database ? In other words, Is the type of IDin .edmx matched to the database?
By the way, it seems that this issue is more related to EF. You could post this issue on EF discussion for better support.
Thanks & Regards,
Will

Best Practices for JMS Service Documentation

Our software consists of a variety of JMS producers and consumers used to transform and transmit business to business messages on a large scale.
The service nodes do a variety of things, and we've had trouble over the years ensuring every queue-based service clearly identifies the parameters and payload it accepts, so that everyone from programmers to system administrators can easily see what services are available and how they are to be used.
Some have advocated always adding a web service in front of each message-based service to guarantee interface contracts are all well publicized. I think there are reasons to choose web services and reasons to choose message-based services, and am not convinced this is the right answer to address limitations in expressing the design contract for a message-based service. That said, I really like what we've been able to do with self-documenting web services based on annotations, and wonder if there's a conceptual equivalent in message-based software.
What are your best practices for ensuring your message-based services are as self-documenting as your modern web service?
Thanks in advance for your advice!

Current best practice for Time service settings for Hyper-V 2012 R2 Host and guest OS's

I am trying to find out what the current best practice is for Time service settings in a Hyper-V 2012 environment. I find conflicting information. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I have found some different sources (links below) but again the
are not consistent. Thanks
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2010/11/19/time-synchronization-in-hyper-v.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/virtual_active_directory_domain_controller_virtualization_hyperv(v=ws.10).aspx
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/12709.time-services-for-a-domain-controller-on-hyper-v.aspx

From the first link provided by Brian, it does state that the time service should be off, but then the update changes that statement. Still best to rely on the first link in the OP - it was written by the guy that has been responsible for much of what
gets coded into Hyper-V, starting from before there ever was a Hyper-V. I'd say that's a pretty reliable source.
Time service
For virtual machines that are configured as domain controllers, it is recommended that you disable time synchronization between the host system and guest operating system acting as a domain controller. This enables your guest domain controller to synchronize
time from the domain hierarchy.
To disable the Hyper-V time synchronization provider, shut down the VM and clear the Time synchronization check box under Integration Services.
Note
This guidance has been recently updated to reflect the current recommendation to synchronize time for the guest domain controller from only the domain hierarchy, rather than the previous recommendation to partially disable time synchronization between the
host system and guest domain controller.

Best practice for web service call

I can add a web service using the standard data connection wizard - works fine. I also can do it all in Javascript which give me a bit more flexibility. Is there some guideline or wisdom for which is best?

It all depends on your requirement..
For example, if you know your webservice address at design time itself, then it would be better to put in the data connection tab.
But if your webservice address changes at run time based on the environment your application is deployed in, then you can use the java script code to change the webservice address dynamically.

Best practice for implementing services

I am doing some testing with implementing webservices and i am wondering what it the best way...
First some background about the project. The idea is that the user interfaces uses webservices for almost everything. The complete datalayer is created somewhere else and i just use those services. For example i have a WSDL that holds the UserServices. It describes the service for creating,updating,deleting, getUserByCompany, getUserByKey and some other stuff.
As far as i can see, i have 2 options in JDev
1) Create a datacontrol based upon the WSDL. This way i can easily drag&drop the services and use the databindings.
I'm afraid that this approach is not that flexibel. It isn't realy easy to update the DC once the WSDL has been changed.
I have a popup to edit/create a user. It also does not seem easy to implement this because when i open the popup for create, my input fields should be bound to the parameters for the createService but when i open the popup to edit a user, those fields should be bound to the editService instead. This does not look easy...
Also, the table that lists the users depends on the role of the user. When an admin request the page with the user table, he must see all the users but when another user request the page, he can only see the users from his company so we have 2 services for this: getUsers (gets all the users) and getUsersByCompany so here also, my table can be bound to 2 services... Does not seem to be easy to implement.
2) The second way of implementing services is using a proxy. This seems way more flexible. I just creates a java interface to call the service. This way i can create my own pojo's and create a DC from that.
This way i can create a function getUsers(String company). When i drop that to my page, i can bind the company parameter to a backing bean. THis way i can write some logic in the pojo based upon the value. If company is null i return the result of the getUser service, else i use the getUsersByCompany service instead.
It's also very easy to regenerate the proxy if the wsdl has been changed. Somethign that isn't possible with the first way.
What do you do when you use webservices this way? If their any difference in performance?
Any other tips.

You got it basically right.
With the proxy approach you write get code that wraps your calls to the Web service - and this allows you to do various modifications on how the service is called, what to do with the results etc.
However check out this example to see how you can use the same result set in a Web service data control for both a query and an update/insert:

Best practice for calling application module methods and plsql code

In my application I am experiencing problems with connection pooling, I seem to be using a lot of connections in my application when only a few users are using the system. As part of our application we need to call database procedures for business logic.
Our backing beans, call methods on the application module which in turn call a database procedure. For instance in the backing bean we have code like this to call the application module method.
// Calling Module to generate new examination/test.
CIGAppModuleImpl appMod = (CIGAppModuleImpl)Configuration.createRootApplicationModule("ky.gov.exam.model.CIGAppModule", "CIGAppModuleLocal");
String testId = appMod.createTest( userId, examId, centerId).toString();
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getPageFlowScope().put("tid",testId);
// Close the call
System.out.println("Calling releaseRootApplicationModule remove");
Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule(appMod, true);
System.out.println("Completed releaseRootApplicationModule remove");
return returnResult;
In the application module method we have the following code.
System.out.println("CIGAppModuleImpl: Call the database and use the value from the iterator");
CallableStatement cs = null;
try{
cs = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement("begin ? := macilap.user_admin.new_test_init(?,?,?); end;", 0);
cs.registerOutParameter(1, Types.NUMERIC);
cs.setString(2, p_userId);
cs.setString(3, p_examId);
cs.setString(4, p_centerId);
cs.executeUpdate();
returnResult=cs.getInt(1);
System.out.println("CIGAppModuleImpl.createTest: Return Result is " + returnResult);
}catch (SQLException se){
throw new JboException(se);
finally {
if (cs != null) {
try {
cs.close();
catch (SQLException s) {
throw new JboException(s);
I have read in one of Steve Muench presentations (Oracle Fusion Applications Team' Best Practises) that calling the createRootApplicationModule method is a bad idea, and to call the method via the binding interface.
I am assuming calling the createRootApplicationModule uses much more resources and database connections that calling the method through the binding interface such as
BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
OperationBinding ob = bindings.getOperationBinding("customMethod");
Object result = ob.execute()
Is this the case? Also is using getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement the best way of calling database procedures. Would it be better to expose plsql packages as webservices and then call them from the applicationModule. Is this more efficient?
Regards
Orlando

Thanks Shay, this is now working.
I successfully got the binding to the application method in the pagedef.
I used the following code in my backing bean.
package view.backing;
import oracle.binding.BindingContainer;
import oracle.binding.OperationBinding;
public class Testdatabase {
private DCBindingContainer bindingContainer;
public void setBindingContainer (DCBindingContainer bc) {this.bindingContainer = bc;}
public DCBindingContainer getBindingContainer() {return bindingContainer;}
public static String validateUser()
// Calling Module to validate user and return user role details.
System.out.println("Getting Binding Container from Home Backing Bean");
BindingContainer bindings = BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
System.out.println("Obtain binding");
OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("calldatabase");
System.out.println("Set username parameter");
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("p_userId",userId);
System.out.println("Set password parameter");
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("p_testId",examId);
Object result = operationBinding.execute();
System.out.println("Obtain result");
String userRole = result.toString();
System.out.println("Result is "+userRole);
}

Best practice for using App Module Interface vs Impl

Hello all,
I understand the benefit and desire to use an Application Module via an Interface vs directly using the Implementation (Impl) class. This works fine for custom methods exposed on the interface, however, it does not address getters for view objects that are in the data model. Similarly, if I do use the Impl class, it returns a View Object Implementation - same issue here.
Any thoughts?
John

Hi John,
you can write custom method returning ViewObject class.
    /**Container's getter for DeptView1
    public DeptViewImpl getDeptView() {
        return (DeptViewImpl)findViewObject("DeptView");
    // This method can be exposed to client
    public ViewObject getDepts() {
        return getDeptView1();
    }When your view object will have custom method exposed to client then getDepts() method can return DeptView interface.
Method returning impl class cannot be exposed as it probably doesn't follow rules (some rules are described in documentation - ch. 8.4.4).
Or you can create your own interface and implement it in view object impl class. Getter returning this interface can be exposed to client.
We found it very useful to use own java interfaces in our project. You can then create common logic working with any view object implementing specific interface.

Best Practices for Service Entry Sheet Approval

Hi All
Just like to get some opinion on best practices for external service management - particularly approval process for Service Entry Sheet.
We have a 2 step approval process using workflow:
1 Entry Sheet Created (blocked)
2. Workflow to requisition creator to verify/unblock the Entry Sheet
3. Workflow to Cost Object owner to approve the Entry Sheet.
For high volume users (e.g. capital projects) this is cumbersome process - we looking to streamline but still maintain control.
What do other leaders do in this area? To me mass release seems to lack control, but perhaps by using a good release strategy we could provide a middle ground?
Any ideas or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
AC.

Hi,
You can have purchasing group (OME4) as department and link cost center to department (KS02). Use user exit for service entry sheet release and can have two characteristics for service entry sheet release, one is for value (CESSR- LWERT) and another one for department (CESSR-USRC1) .Have one release class for service entry sheet release & then add value characteristics (CESSR- LWERT) and department characteristics (CESSR-USRC1). Now you can design release strategies for service entry sheet based on department & value, so that SES will created and then will be released by users with release code based on department & value assigned to him/her.
