Application Integration Architecture Foundation Pack on Oracle Service Bus

The paper on the Oracle web site from December 2008 titled "Application Integration Architecture Foundation Pack on Oracle Service Bus" is an interesting read. The technology roadmap makes it clear the OSB is the future and current "old" ESB supported by AIA is going on the scrap heap. Now I know the OSB is not a supported platform for even the latest foundation pack so I wonder about why this paper was published. Is Oracle indicating foundation pack v 2.2.x support on OSB? Is it published as a "this is something to look forward to" type document? I honestly wonder since there are some pretty specific instructions on how to get it working and the authors are senior thought leaders for the AIA product.

2/04/08 Update - I see that with the AIA 2.3 release that Oracle Service Bus did not make the list of supported technology.

Implementing Oracle Service Bus - Architectural Question

Hi Experts,
If you were implementing Oracle SOA Suite and were intending on using it to support your legacy file based peer to peer integration solution (Enterprise scale) by utilising file adapters to extract, mediators to transform/route and custom built services to push that data into a transactional system would you look at using an Enterprise Service Bus to implement any of this functionality.
The principle here is to move away from peer to peer into a pseudo SOA solution where semi generic services are developed to accept the data currently sent in the files and sending that into an open interface table in the target system. The seperation of the file handling from the interface service is key to moving towards a service orientated solution.
It has been suggested to me that you could use the ESB to collect the files, extract the data and push it into the services in the SOA middleware. This is as opposed to building the file polling applications as composite applications in Oracle SOA suite.
Any thoughts would be appreciated on either of these approaches.
Thanks
K

there is no "one size fits all" SOA, you must evaluate the complexity of your interfaces and see whether it's worth having a 2 layers approach (OSB + SOA Suite) or condensating all in SOA Suite (or, why not, ditching the heaviness of SOA Suite and use only OSB)
Anyway on the "OSB vs SOA Suite" topic people have already written caterpillions of posts

Need to Import an application built using Oracle Service Bus on Oracle Public Cloud

I have built an application using Oracle Service Bus (OSB) eclipsed IDE which transfers file from server1 to server2, reads the transferred file, transforms it into a payload and calls a webservice. I have tested this application locally by installing Oracle Service Bus on one on my servers.
I have java as a service account on Oracle Public Cloud. I would like to import the above application onto Oracle Public Cloud. I am not sure if the Weblogic domain on Oracle Public Cloud has enabled OSB or not.
Let me know if someone can help me.

Hello,
Oracle Service Bus is currently not supported in Oracle Java Cloud Service.
Oracle Java Cloud Service supports deployment of JavaEE and ADF applications.

Regarding Integration of Oracle Service Bus with Oracle Server 10g

Hi,
Could you please provide some docs or links so as to integrate Oracle Database with Oracle Service Bus. The requirement is that the data will be retrieved or saved or updated in the database after recieving inputs from the user. We are using OSB as middle wayer component between ORacle BPM Studio and ORacle Sever 10g. Please provide some help for the same. The data should move to the Oracle Database through ORacle Service Bus.
Thanks,
Abhishek

You need to first create an external resource for ALSB configuration. You can then use the configuration to connect to ALSB and create the structure for transferring the data.
You then have to configure a DB transport for updating the process data using ALSB.
Hope this helps.

How to get Oracle Service Bus 10gR3 for windows 64 bit

Hi,
I'm looking for Oracle Service Bus 10gR3 and Oracle Data Service Integrator 10gR3 installables for Windows 64-bit. However, I saw the available versions on download section are only for indows 32-bit. I'm using win 64-bit to detect 4BG RAM or more which is not possible in win 32-bit.
Can anybody help me wheather compatable version are available or is there any solution for that?
Thanks in advance,

Enterprise Business Services and Oracle Service Bus

Hi,
We are using AIA and we have developed a number of EBS’. These are composite applications containing a mediator and are deployed to the SOA Server.
Am I right in saying that another option is to use the Oracle Service Bus and replace the composite application ESB’s with ESB’s in the Oracle Service Bus?
Robert

Gerhard,
I was thinking the benefits would be:
-     End point Virtualisation – Single end point for services we can configure.
-     Move the job of wiring the integrations from Development to Admin
-     Single point of monitoring for SLA’s and QOS
-     Improve visibility of ESB’s by providing a single list. (At the moment they are amongst many services in enterprise manager.)
At the moment we have 3 SOA servers connected to 6 systems. (Dev, Test and Prod) I was imagining it might be possible to have a single OSB with Service routing controlled by policies. This way we would not need three OSB setup’s.
I am also charged with planning for the development of further services and we already have a long list of composites in enterprise manager. I am imagining that this will quickly become unmanageable. With OSB we could hide the downstream services and only show the EBS’.
I also imagined that when we introduced a 11.1.1.6 SOA server we could simply adjust the routing rules at the OSB to set up a dev environment. Test out the new services work, then make similar adjustments on a per EBS basis until we have migrated completely to 11.1.1.6.
I agree that there are a lot of trade off’s and I do not really have the experience to weigh up the balance between the two. Yesterday I was asked to come up with methods of monitoring performance of the current integration as well as future integrations and the OSB data sheet talks a little bit about this which is why I am thinking more about it; Although have only got as far as looking at the OSB data sheet and some manuals.
I guess another option would be to go with some EBS’s as mediators and others on OSB but I think using a consistent method for EBS’s would be preferable.
Also there is the question do we have one OSB for all systems or separate OSB’s for Dev, Test and Prod.

What are all difference between 11g Mediator and 10g Oracle service bus.

hi all ,
Apart from SCA concept , storing location
is thr any other difference between 11g Mediator and 10g Oracle service bus ?
thx in advance..

11g introduces the SCA architecture for building the service infrastructure.
SOA 11g uses:-
1. Uses the weblogic Server and BEA Aqualogic Service Bus (ALSB) for the Oracle Service Bus.
2. BPEL uses scalable DOM with reduced memory usage.
3. New adapters and leverage for Java 2 Connector Architecture (J2CA)
4. BAM finally ported from .Net to J2EE and is part of the service infrastructure
5. Oracle Web Services Management built into SOA 11g service infrastructure
6. New adapters and leverage for Java 2 Connector Architecture (J2CA). Tighter integration with E-Business Suite & large payload support.
7. Business Rules in SOA 10g business rules are managed using the Rules Author & in SOA 11g business rules are managed using JDeveloper and SOA composer

You are receiving a 404 error which means that the binding to the SB is not correct or there is a problem with the SB end part of the integration.
Are you able to test this successfully from an automatic activity for example aside from trying to use it within a screenflow ?
Thanks !

[OSB] - Oracle Service Bus 11gR1 ?

Hi everyone!
I'm evaluating Oracle Service Bus 10gR3 (10.3.1.0) which I downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/integration/service-bus/index.html . Since I've seen that lots Oracle Products are alreadly released as of the platform 11g I'd like to know what are the Oracle plans for the OSB. Is there a new version at development to be added to the 11g platform ? I've read an Oracle Statement of Direction regarding a merge between OESB and OSB but it wasn't clear about some issues:
1- If I'm developing an application with eclipse using the current 10.3.1.0 version is there gonna have big changes in the 11g version?
2- Is the Oracle Workshop for Weblogic plugin for eclipse gonna be continued ? Because I'm using it.
As I understood from the document, OSB will "envelop" the OESB which will serve as a Mediator component, so I suppose I can keep using OSB now and adapt it for the 11g platform, is that right ??
Thanks

1- If I'm developing an application with eclipse using the current 10.3.1.0 version is there gonna have big changes in the 11g version?No. Your application (called configuration in OSB parlance), will be compatible when you migrate to OSB 11g Version. OSB auto upgrades when the configuration developed in OSB 10.3.1.0 is imported into OSB 11g.
For your evaluation, I have seen configurations developed during ALSB2.1, deploy into OSB 10.3.1.0 with out any issues (though documentation doesn't explicitly mention or guarantee this).
2- Is the Oracle Workshop for Weblogic plugin for eclipse gonna be continued ? Because I'm using it.Eclipse based development environment (OEPE) will be supported with OSB 11g. This OEPE based environment will offer all functionality that is being currently offered by Oracle Workshop for Weblogic.
As I understood from the document, OSB will "envelop" the OESB which will serve as a Mediator component, so I suppose I can keep using OSB now and adapt it for the 11g platform, is that right ??Absolutely, configuration developed in OSB10.3.10 can be used out of box in OSB11g.

Oracle Service Bus 11gR1

We are able to install and bring up Oracle Service Bus 11gR1.
When the architecture of installed Oracle Service Bus 11g R1 has only the Admin server, we are able to login to the sbconsole and console,
But our as per our current architecture requirement we need to have Admin server and 2 Managed servers with Cluster between them.
In this situation we are unable to get the sbconsole to login. Could we please get some inputs on how to bring up the sbconsole?
Thanks in advance !!
Sachin

Login to weblogic admin console, go to deployments section and make sure that web-application "ServiceBus_Console" is in active state.

Oracle service bus cache flush/clear - business service

Hi Everyone,
We are currently using oracle service bus as an integration platform. We are conducting a disaster recovery exercise for on of the applications (A) integrated to OSB, but the OSB is always connecting to the primary node of the application A though the DNS at application A is pointing to the secondary node.
We believe this is happening because OSB is caching the IP address of the application A (though it is using DNS) and keeps connecting to the same server even if the primary traffic is diverted to the secondary node.
Can someone please let us know if there is a way we can clear the cache of the business service (used to connect to the application A) without restarting the servers?
Thank you.
Regards,
Ram

Yes, by default the JVM will cache the name resolution. You can change this behaviour by adding the TTL in the managed server startup parameters as follows:
-Dnetworkaddress.cache.ttl=120 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.negative.ttl=10
The above parameters mean that the JVM will cache the name resolution for 2 minutes in case of success and for 10 seconds in case of a failure.
For testing purposes, you can reduce the ttl from 120 seconds, but when in production make sure that this value is not too low.

Fabio Douek

Oracle Service Bus (OSB), Eclipse --- and statement of direction

Can somebody please explain what this means in: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/integration/service-bus/docs/Oracle-Service-Bus-SOD.pdf
+...The web-based console was complemented in the 3.0 release with full IDE support in Eclipse. The Eclipse capabilities will be ported to Oracle JDeveloper to provide a one-stop IDE for all SOA design needs. Until that port is complete, customers will still be able to use the Eclipse environment as IDE (in addition to the web-based console)...+
More specifically: what will happen to the Eclipse OSB plugin/workshop once the JDeveloper port is complete?
A) will it cease to exist and/or be terminated?
B) will it remain as is, without keeping the functionality in synch with new stuff in JDev?
C) will it continue to evolve side-by-side with JDev?
Thx,
-J.

I think it is clear that Oracle will remain commited to Eclipse in terms of deploying java applications to WebLogic, they will provide some plugins for some time to come. You will however see oracle specific products, such as OSB, Portal, etc removed from Eclipse and ported to JDev. The reason for this is that Oracle can release new releases within their timeframe. If Oracle rely on Eclipse to deliver some functionality before they can release new products then they will be doing their customers a disservice.
This statement in the SOD clearly states that JDev is the strategic platform and the Eclipse IP will be ported to JDev in the future:
Design-Time Environment
JDeveloper is the IDE of choice for SOA development at Oracle. AquaLogic Service Bus users have traditionally been using the web-based console to design, manage and monitor ESB flows. The web console is a key differentiator for ALSB (now Oracle Service Bus) and will therefore remain a primary design
environment moving forward.
The web-based console was complemented in the 3.0 release with full IDE support in Eclipse. The Eclipse capabilities will be ported to Oracle JDeveloper to provide a
one-stop IDE for all SOA design needs. Until that port is complete, customers will still be able to use the Eclipse environment as IDE (in addition to the web-based
console).

If you follow the above, you don't have to restart anything and you don't have to write any script. The IP address is going to be updated as long as the DNS server is being updated correctly (you can easily test by pinging the host name)

How is licensed the Oracle Service Bus? wasnt it part of the SOA Suite?

Why
it is not clear for us how the oracle service bus is licensed, in terms that we thought it was included on the Oracle SOA Suite , we are referring to newer releases
is it licensed a part from the soa suite?
Thanks!

thanks!
so just to put it clear, In case in which we are licencing both weblogic an soa suite the enterprise edition the OSB is included on the licence fee right?
3.2 Oracle Service Bus
Oracle Service Bus is a lightweight SOA integration platform, or "enterprise service bus". Oracle Service Bus includes Oracle SOA Suite Adapters (see Chapter 5, "Oracle Fusion Middleware Adapters").
Oracle Service Bus is licensed as an option to Oracle WebLogic Suite and is also included in Oracle SOA Suite for Oracle Middleware and Oracle Mobile Suite. Users running Oracle SOA Suite for Oracle Middleware on WebLogic Server Basic may not run Oracle Service Bus (see Section 3.5, "Oracle SOA Suite for Oracle Middleware and Oracle BPEL Process Manager Option Licensing with Oracle Internet Application Server").
Prerequisite: A license to Oracle WebLogic Suite is a prerequisite to license and use Oracle Service Bus.
