Apex & SOA

Hello
IS IT POSSIBLE TO DEVELOP APPLICATIONS IN ORACLE APEX USING THE NEW SOA APPROACH? HOW ABOUT USING ORACLE BPEL ON APEX APPLICATIONS, IS IT POSSIBLE? BUILDING MODERN COMPOSITE APPLICATION
THANKS

capslock off
Can you describe the new soa approach?
Think you need to give more information of what you want.
In its most simply form you're able to start bpel-processes from the gui of an apex-application.
What other functionality do you want to use?

    Chariot,
    and you do not even have to wait for 11g to expose your PL/SQL packages as Web-Service. See the article "Build a PL/SQL Web Service" at http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/price_10gws.html
    So nothing stops your APEX application/PLSQL code to take part in the SOA world. :-)

  • Consuming of SOA webservice in Oracle APEX

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement in which i need to consume the data into Oracle APEX from a web service which was created in SOA. (For eg: There is a webservice created in SOA, which posts empid,empname,empsal etc)
    Now, in Oracle APEX i need to use that data consumed from the webservice to display graph or report , is that possible?
    Can we build graph or report or such things in Oracle APEX without creating any tables/views etc in Oracle APEX?
    If the above question looks complicated, here in simple mode:
    Is there any way in which we can build a graph/report in Oracle APEX with out creating a table/view in APEX for the data that belongs to Oracle E-biz instance.
    Hope I am making sense from the above question.
    p.s: APEX 4.2 is the version that we are using now.
    Any Help/guidance truly appreciated,
    Thanks in Advance,
    Af

    Hi Af,
    I have explained the steps in another thread which I have given link in my previous reply.
    If you are looking for code for any specific step, please let me know.
    And another point you need to take care is - Authentication. If it's a public web-service, then no problem. If it uses basic authentication, then you can pass username and password to APEX_WEB_SERVICE APIs.
    I also suggest you to try invoking web-service using stand-alone clients like SoapUI - The Home of Functional Testing. If everything works fine there, then you can try them invoking from APEX.

  • Apex use in the enterprise?

    Any Apex experts care to respond to the list of advantages / disadvantages that we have come up with - while doing due diligence for potential rollout of Apex as a development platform for the enterprise?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Please note that we know little to nothing about Apex. But we do know the database. I have read other threads in this forum where it is mentioned that all database utilites (dbms_*) are available to be used in apex - and this is a major plus point - agreed. Do know that metalink is apex based.
    Would love to have oracle apex developers respond.
    Oracle Application Express Architecture - Due Diligence
    Advantages
    (1)     RAD development for data centric Web applications.
    (2)     Out of box support for some HTML page templates. For example, sort, search, save data to CSV, ...
    (3)     Reduce required skill sets for PL/SQL developers on web application development.
    (4)     Performance boost on a small scale non-enterprise Web applications.
    (5)     Single vendor within integrated Oracle administration environment.
    (6)     Out of box charting and reporting supports.
    Disadvantages
    (1)     Application operates within Oracle instance which imposes considerable resource overheads due to HTTP session tracking and JVM environment.
    (2)     APEX supports through discussion forum not a formal support channel.
    (3)     This two tier non-SOA data centric configuration requires high end machines to power up Oracle instances for mission critical applications. N-tier SOA architecture can easily scale up and scale out by using economic efficient hardware.
    (4)     A non-traditional security configuration requires either database accounts or APEX accounts.
    (5)     It requires very specific skill sets if future application enhancements does not fall into out of box APEX templates.
    (6)     Single Sign On (SSO) requires add-on SDK which makes it quite difficult and sometimes impossible to integrate with other applications.
    (7)     It operates under Oracle HTTP server with J2EE environment. This requires a different technology expertise for performance tuning.
    (8)     APEX application is vendor specific and offers no portability at all.
    Summary
    (1)     APEX is targeted to replace MS Access like applications to provide better security, scalability and stability.
    (2)     APEX is well suited for web RAD development by DBAs.
    (3)     APEX is suited for data centric application such as maintain some database records….
    (4)     APEX is not suited for provisioning services.
    (5)     APEX is not suited for high volume transaction Web applications.
    (6)     APEX is not suited for any applications required LDAP typed security or SSO.
    (7)     APEX does not provide any portability outside of Oracle.

    I think you need to review some of these comments..

    (2)     APEX supports through discussion forum not a

    (4)     A non-traditional security configuration requires
    either database accounts or APEX accounts.NOT TRUE. Please review documents again.. YOu can BUILD internal security in application, or rely on LDAP or Single Sign on from Oracle..
    (5)     It requires very specific skill sets if future
    application enhancements does not fall into out of
    box APEX templates.HTML and CSS development skills. If you develop web sites, you should be comfortable with this..
    (6)     Single Sign On (SSO) requires add-on SDK which

    (8)     APEX application is vendor specific and offers no

  • APEX 3.1.2: How to show a jpeg/pdf inside a geotag from a GIS app?

    I am developing a small Oracle Maps Application for my diploma thesis at my university. I've found the "Hands-on Lab: Developing an interactive mapping application for your Oracle database using Oracle Maps" held in October 2006 in San Francisco and I am trying to get used to this kind of applications.
    I am using Oracle EE 10g, SOA Suite 10.1.3.1 (OC4J + HTTP Server), MapViewer 10.1.3.1, APEX 3.1.2.
    Everything works fine until I want to click and see a geotag. For some unknown reason the jpeg/pdf (blob content) is not appearing. Instead I can see one of those broken small icons. When I tried to click the link to see the pdf the following message appeared:
    "Forbidden
    You don't have permission to access /pls/apex/MVDEMO.download_file on this server."
    I have granted the execute on the download procedure to public and also to apex_public_user. (I thought just in case...)
    I imagine there might be some changes in the new APEX 3.1.2 version that caused this break down? The lab was developed for an older version of Apex.
    Could you please advice me what am I doing wrong and/or how can I fix it? I would deeply appreciate your input.
    Thanks in advance,
    Roxana

    Ok, so I've found the following note on Metalink: 783646.1 HTTP-403 Forbidden Error While Trying To Access The DB Procedure From The URL, that should solve my problem, if I only managed to modify the wwv_flow_epg_include_local.sql function. I opened it in Wordpad, modified it and tried to overwrite it and save it and then it says "Access to ...\core\wwv_flow_epg_include_local.sql was denied."
    Does anyone know how to solve this? Pleeaseeeee! :D

  • Apex Installation On Oracle App Server Apache

    Installation using an existing Apache server like on the Oracle Apps Server can be done as a replacement for the Apache that is installed with Apex but may require the installation of mod_plsql into Apache.
    If you need to do this, use the documentation for the Oracle Apps Server for installing mod_plsql. The Apex documentation assumes that mod_plsql is installed and is missing steps for a complete installation.
    Installing on one web server is advantageous for applications that are integrated with Oracle App Server applications like the SOA Suite.

  • Web Service in Apex

    Hi
    I'm using APEX 2.1.0, OracleXE 10.2, Oracle SOA 10.1.3, Jdev 10.1.3.3
    I've created a webservice in jdeveloper based upon a plsql package it has 3 input parameters and return a parameter
    I've deployed the webservice to my SOA apps server and tested it satisfactorily
    I've then created the web service reference in APEX using the shared components utility and it appears to create the reference ok (based upon the WSDL without searching UDDI), this correctly shows the operation and input and output parameters whilst it is created via the wizard
    I've then tried to create a form based upon the web service in APEX, it shows the operation but it does not show the input parameters it gives the mesage "no data found"
    has anyone else had this problem?
    has anyone got any suggestions?
    thanks
    Andrew

    Jason
    Thanks for this, I've tried to upgrade my APEX to 3.01 using the instructions identified it ran for 9hrs before I killed it I assume that there are some things I need to do on my XE database or my machine is not powerful enough, or something else is awry (not found any other posts on the forum indicating anyone else having a problem with the upgrade so I assume its me!)
    However I have now managed to access another oracle 10g instance that does have Apex 3.01 and I have now successfully built my application on the web services generated in Jdeveloper
    again thanks

  • "ORA-28267 Invalid NameSpace" with APEX 4.0.1 and WebLogic server

    Hi all,
    I have a page that has a simple query as Region Source. It all worked fine on Apex 3.2 with the iAS mod pl/sql gateway.
    Query goes like this:
    select servername, a.capture_name, a.status, a.source_database, a.captured_scn, a.applied_scn, b.state_changed_time, b.state
    from DBA_CAPTURE@DBLNK_STRM_PADATARP a, V$STREAMS_CAPTURE@DBLNK_STRM_PADATARP b
    where a.CAPTURE_NAME (+)= b.CAPTURE_NAME
    (it reads out Oracle Streams status over a database link)
    After migrating the page to Apex 4.0.1 and WebLogic (Oracle 11g SOA suite) frontend, the Apex page now gives the "ORA-28267 Invalid NameSpace" error for some strange reason.
    Apex will now not validate the query in the edit region source page.
    I think maybe the problem lies with the WebLogic setup, but exactly what it might be eludes me.
    Anyone able to shed any light on this?
    Regards,
    -Haakon-

    Must have to do with the java based Apex Listener in conjunction with WebLogic and the execution of queries over database links.
    Workaround was to create a materialized view in Apex database and select from that instead.

    1) Should I be using HTTP mod_plsql or XDB listener for pl/sqlI always use the former with no issues (integrated with SOA). I remember I tired the latter once and could not display the main page (not sure if it is supported).
    2) How can I trouble shoot this? Am I missing anything in the install?Please see old threads for similar discussion.

  • Ignorant & SOA approach

    Hi,
    Sorry for being ignorant and still studying how to make the integration between JD Edwards EnterpriseOne (9.1) with other applications using SOA approach. I have some questions that I received from my client, I appreciate if some can help me answering these questions, i need to know if JDE integration is supporting the following:
    1. Windows Communication Foundation (and if not, can we develop a new web-service “WCF using .NET” and then call standard JDE services from within).
    2. Protocols such as http, and TCP/IP
    3. Encryption
    4. Compression
    I am trying to read some documents that I did downloaded from the KZ, but it will be great if you can refer me to JDE documentations or guide as a start to help on understanding the SOA in JD Edwards.
    Appreciate your help, thanks in advance

    Hi Anupam,
    My company has a major revenue system we developed in APEX using SOA approach.
    We have web-services (generated from OracleDW > PL/SQL API > JDeveloper > WS War Files > Oracle AS J2EE Container deployed).
    APEX application consumes this web-services and presents in screen for user transactions. In the APEX end we have zero tables, only packages to consume web-services and for validations.
    We use apex collections heavily. Basic working in a null-shell is to get WS > parse data into collections > user views or alters collections > validations on the changes to collections > call WS to perform DML transactions.
    This application is in production for last couple of years, and so far done millions of dollars worth transactions - no problems.
    Cheers

  • b The nicest APEX app / feature /b

    Hello,
    At ODTUG I'm doing the APEX vs ADF Shoot-out, together with Lucas Jellema.
    The last presentation Lucas and I did last year in the Netherlands. We decided to change some things in the presentation. One of them is to include "the nicest app or features in both environments".
    So, I thought to ask the community what they think I should show.
    Currently the list I thought to chose of:
    * Out of the box in APEX: from raw Data to Application and Interactive Reports
    * "Web 2.0" extensions in APEX: for ex. ExtJS and Dhtmlx
    * Integration with Webservices, Fusion and SOA
    * Extending E-business suite with APEX
    (although I don't have the Oracle Applications Suite running on my laptop, so it will be hard to show)
    * Integration with SQL Developer
    I've about 15 mins to show the coolest, nicest features or application around, build in APEX. So it's not necessary to show things in dept or explain how to do them.
    What features do YOU think make APEX incredible? Feel free to send me some screenshots or even nicer real demo sites or an application export I can show.
    I know a lot of the applications we build are "internal" only, but if you could make a subset of it to just show the cool feature, that's already fine. If you just want to share what you think would be cool to show, just add a comment ... there might be a chance I already did some testing with it.
    See also: http://dgielis.blogspot.com/2008/06/nicest-apex-appfeatures.html
    Let's show the ADF guys something ;-)

    Hi Peter,
    I have a very nice anecdote about 1. APEX for Dummies!
    In DG Tournament there was a problem, people couldn't login... but I didn't have an internet connection at that time and as people had to bet on the games it had to be fixed asap.
    So I called my brother (as he was one of the only persons I could reach) and asked him to follow my instructions. In 5 minutes it was fixed! He's a teacher in sports, so NOT technical at all. He could do everything with his browser, no need to redeploy or have tools on his pc. I should blog about it, but then I'm not sure if the ADF guys read it, they will shoot at that ;-)
    I don't want to stress 1 too much, as APEX is/was seen like that before and the marketing is also done like that by certain people, but as you also say in 2. APEX is very powerful. I see it as a fit for a lot of people; from business people who have not many technical skills to the guru developers.

  • Business Case for SOA

    Hi,
    We run all our systems on Oracle (including eBusiness Suite, Oracle database for bespoke apps, Oracle Spatial, etc.) and have been able to use database links to join everything together very nicely. We mainly use APEX to produce easy-to-use applications, achieving very rapid development cycles. We also use JDeveloper to generate JSP pages.
    Yet I keep getting pressured to migrate to a Service Oriented Architecture. Why should I? What business benefits would we get? Every time I look at it it seems to me that we would need to spend money on new server software, on more training for our developers and our productivity would take a serious hit.
    Am I missing something?
    Patrick.

    Hi. I think there is a lot of hype around SOA. If you realize that SOA is really about architecting and implementing that are easily developed, easily managed, easily extended, easily debugged, then you can get a sense of what SOA is about. Vendors will hype their own particular approach to a Service Oriented Architecture. I think what you have to think about is why you are "being pressured" to think SOA.
    In my mind, any solution must be architected and implemented keeping in ind the overall project lifecycle cost of ownership. This includes cost of architecting, developing, debugging, deploying, operating, extending, depreciating, end-of-life'ing, and replacing. Therefore, any products, techniques, approaches that you take to mnimize the overall cost is a good thing.
    Therefore, governance plays a very very strong part here. SOA governance is fundamentally about knowing what you have, what you need, and how to get there in the most expedient manner possible.
    Anyway, I could talk at length on this subject, but hopefully you get a flavor for why SOA.

    This used to be quite challenging, but now, with APEX 3.1.2, APEX can understand a lot more WSDL files, including those from BPEL, and it has also got the “manual web service” definition capability, which can help.
    I used APEX 3.1.2 on Database 11g, and called a synchronous BPEL process running on SOA Suite 10.1.3.4. The one thing I had to do to make it work, was to create a network access rule so that the APEX user could call the service. This is done by running the following code as SYS.
    DECLARE
    ACL_PATH VARCHAR2(4000);
    ACL_ID RAW(16);
    BEGIN
    -- Look for the ACL currently assigned to '*' and give FLOWS_030100
    -- the "connect" privilege if FLOWS_030100 does not have the privilege yet.
    SELECT ACL INTO ACL_PATH FROM DBA_NETWORK_ACLS
    WHERE HOST = '*' AND LOWER_PORT IS NULL AND UPPER_PORT IS NULL;
    -- Before checking the privilege, make sure that the ACL is valid
    -- (for example, does not contain stale references to dropped users).
    -- If it does, the following exception will be raised:

    -- ORA-06512: at "XDB.DBMS_XDBZ", line ...
    SELECT SYS_OP_R2O(extractValue(P.RES, '/Resource/XMLRef')) INTO ACL_ID
    FROM XDB.XDB$ACL A, PATH_VIEW P
    WHERE extractValue(P.RES, '/Resource/XMLRef') = REF(A) AND
    EQUALS_PATH(P.RES, ACL_PATH) = 1;

    The difficulty in this scenario is that you're going to integrate a data-centric application, APEX, with a data-centric process-handling technology, BPEL. In this case you will feed data from the database, fetched with APEX, back into a bpel process that inserts the data in the database.
    The surplus of BPEL is the orchestration part to handle a process flow from A to Z, which can't be handled easily by APEX without a lot of manual work.
    How is APEX going to handle hierarchical data that needs to be fed into your bpel process. Still a lot of architectural questions that need to handled, which is the case for each scenario of course ;o)
    Kind regards,
    Nathalie

  • Apex application registered with sso as partner application

    We have 1 apex app registered with sso and working properly.
    I just registered a new apex application with sso. when i authenticate through sso, it directs me to the originally registered application.
    I went in through the portal administrator app and verified my settings all pointed to the new application. I verified that my dad is set up correctly.
    Any ideas?
    APEX 2.0

    i did register and obtain the keys through portal admin.
    to ensure i used the proper keys (i guess there is a possibility i used the keys from db1 registration) i re-ran regapp with the right keys but recieved the following output:
    SQL> @regapp
