Best Practice for Enterprise Application Integration

I would like to integrate a few corporate systems together by using Oracle Fusion Middleware. I suppose the integrated process is running in synchronous mode such that it also supports two phase commit.
In BPEL Process manager, there is a tool called "WSIF" which seems to be relevant to my requirement. I would like to know which tools should be best for my integration project and any suggestion on implementation.
Thanks in advance,
Samuel Wai

This has been answered repeatedly. WL allows you to cache JNDI context
          objects, ejb homes and remotes without any problems. (EJB remote interfaces
          must only be used by one thread at a time, but that requirement is provided
          by the EJB spec itself.)

Business Package for SAP Best Practices for Enterprise Portal

Hi,
We are implementing EP for ECC 5.0 and we have to web enable some FI transactions like FB50/fb60 etc. We want to use standard business package for this. The only business package that caters this requirement is "Business Package for SAP Best Practices for Enterprise Portal 60.1". When i checked the data source for this business package, the specification is for "SAP R/3 4.6B and above". Does this work for ECC 5.0 as well? In general does the R/3 specific business packages work for ECC versions? Please let me know. Thanks for the help. I promise rewards.
Regards
Hari

Best Practice for Enterprise Repository Layout

We recently moved to 6i R2 non-versioned from 2.1.2. We have several projects that use the repository for development in various business areas of the agency. We have 100+ application containers and only 5 active projects at this time. Many of the containser were built to hold subject area entity objects and not designed for a project application. As a result we now have a web of shares back and forth between all of these applications.
My goal is to "clean up" this layout and move the repository in the direction of a limited number of application containers for subject area "enterprise" objects and individual application containers for each project development task.
One of my main concerns is how best to move several application objects to one application container and then what impact will this limited container structure have on application projects once we turn versioning on later this year. (I would really like to limit or end the use of shares/shortcuts if possible....)
Any advice for configuring an enterprise repository structure would be very helpful! Also, what impacts or gotcha's I need to be aware of once we have the structure in place and turn on versioning...
Sorry this is a long winded question :-}
Thanks ;)
Laurie

Laurie,
There is some good news for you: in Designer 6i, shares are no longer needed to be able to have references between objects ni different folders/application systems.
Previously in Designer 2.1 and 6.0 you could only have references from Object X to objects in other application systems if these objects were shared into the application system that owned the object X. If you moved Object X to a different Application System Y, all objects that X had references to were shared to Y.
All of this no longer exists. Object X in Application System A can have references to objects in any other Application System, without having to create shares or short-cuts as I call them in the context of 6i. Existing short-cuts (created by the migration for example) may be removed, especially if the only reason for their existence is to support a reference across application systems. Short-cuts are now only needed for reasons listed in the paper (Interior Designer) you referred to (e.g. quick navigation or clear insight in dependencies).
Moving objects between application systems will not create Short Cuts in Designer 6i. You also do not have to generate forms again if you moved the module definition or one of the objects used by the module. Moving has no effect whatsoever on the actual contents of objects or values of properties. It only affects the repository structure, the composition of folders and potentially the access users have to objects, since that is organized by folder.
One thing you do need to be aware of: if you are in the context of a workarea that contains an object X with a reference to object Y, and object Y is not in the workarea, you have a so called External Reference (also known as Dangling Reference). The consequence is that your object X is almost invalid: you can look at it, but you cannot generate it; you may also have a problem updating the object as long as it has these dangling references. In general, only update and generate objects that do not have dangling references. Note: the RON has the External References tool to find out about dangling references. This tool also allows you to include objects into the workarea, to resolve dangling references.

Lucas

Best practice for Servlet EJB integration

          I'm wondering what the best practice is for Servlet EJB integration in terms of
          caching the home and remote objects. My understanding is that the Home object
          is threadsafe and could therefore be cached as an attribute of the Servlet. This
          would remove the need for a JNDI lookup for each request. Similarly caching the
          ProxyObject would yield further savings. However, I have noticed that most examples
          don't use either of these practices. Why not?

Best practices for creating application schema

All,
Can anyone recommend best practices (or pointer to a url) for creating application schema. A novice installer created a schema and the tablespace ran out of disk space in 2 days and the system came to a halt at a production site. The tablespace was created with one datafile and with MAXSIZE specified. I am looking for Do's and Dont's on production system.
Thanks for any help,
Vissu

I'm not sure that you can boil this down to a "Do's and Don'ts" list unless you want to get overly general...
For example, do make sure that you provision space appropriately. "Appropriately" however, is going to be radically different in different environments. Some shops set all their data files to autoextend in production and monitor utilization at the OS level. Other shops specify exact file sizes and monitor utilization at the Oracle level. Each approach has its own advantages and disadvantages, you just need to make sure that your application uses the same approach that every other application in the organization uses.
Do have an idea about the space utilization of the application, but don't go overboard. Running out of space in 2 days means someone failed to do a basic analysis. On the other hand, I've seen people spend way more time than they should making 5 year projections based on some relatively soft assumptions and getting worried about internal overheads that were much smaller than the error bars in their baseline estimates. Of course, the precision necessary also depends on the implications-- a 20% error in a multi-TB data warehouse is going to have a lot more impact than a 20% error in a 20 GB OLTP application.

Best practice for adding application to $env:Path in PowerShell?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to add a program to PS's path. When I look at $env:Path, I see tons of different entries pointing to various programs on the system that seem to have been added by their installers. This would suggest that I could just
add another entry pointing to the .exe I want to have available in the path, but if I do this every time I want to have an application available at the shell my path is going to get hideously cluttered.
In bash, I would normally make a bin directory within my home directory, add it to the path at startup in my .bashrc, and then make symlinks in that directory for anything I wanted available. This keeps the path clean and easy to manage. Is there a way to
do something like this in PS, or is the standard solution just to add a new entry to the path for every application you want until it's like a million miles long and unreadable? Putting symlinks or shortcuts in directories already in the path hasn't worked
so far.

You can't put symlinks in a folder to a folder but you must put a link or shortcut to the executable. Links to folders are not scanned. Only the root folder in the path is scanned. No programs wil lever be found through the path if it is in the
current folder in a PowerShell session.
You can quickly alter the patch for the current session like this:
$env:path+='c:\myprogramfolder'
When you exit PowerShell it will not reamian. It will only change the PowerShell process path for that PowerShell session.

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 practices for Air application distribution

I am going to need to develop an AIR application. I am a bit confused how I will deliver updated version it when something has been changed. Will the users have to reinstall it every time I let them know that there is a newer version available? A reason I am asking is that with a web based applications I dont have that problem, every time I export newer version it becomes available immediately.
Thanks

Best practices for deploying forms in a 'cluster'?

Anyone know of any public docs that discuss typical best practices for
- forms deployment;
- forms apps management and version control; and/or
- deploying (and keeping) the .frm/frx in sync when using multiple forms servers in a HA or load balancing envrionment?

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 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

Best practices for apps integration with third party systems ?

Hi all
I would like to know if there is any document from oracle or from your own regarding best practices for apps integration with third party systems.
For example, in particular, let's say we need customization in a given module(ex:payables) need to provide data to a third party system, consider following:
outbound interface:
1)should third party system should be given with direct access to oracle database to access a particular payments data information table/view to look for data ?
2) should oracle create a file to third party system, so that it can read and do what it need to do?
inbound:
1) should third party should directly login and insert data into tables which holds response data?
2) again, should third party create file and oralce apps will pick up for further processing?
again, there could be lot of company specific scenarios like it has to be real time or not... etc...
How does companies make sure third party systems are not directly dipping into other systems (oracle apps/others), so that it will follow certain integration best practices.
how does enterprise architectute will play a role in this? can we apply SOA standards? should use request/reply using Tibco etc?
Many oracle apps implementations customizations are more or less directly interacting with third party systems by including code to login into respective third party systems and vice versa.
Let me your know if you have done differently and that would help oracle apps community.
thanks
rrb.

you want to send idoc to third party system (NONSAP).
what kind of system is it? can it handle http requests
or
can it handle webservice?
which version of R/3 you are using?
what is the mechanism the receiving system has, to receive data?

Best Practices for NCS/PI Server and Application Monitoring question

Hello,
I am deploying a virtual instance of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 (1.2.1.012) on an ESX infrastructure. This is being deployed in an enterprise enviroment. I have questions around the best practices for moniotring this appliance. I am looking to monitor application failures (services down, db issues) and "hardware" (I understand this is a virtual machine, but statistics on the filesystem and CPU/Memory is good).
Firstly, I have enabled via the CLI the snmp-server and set the SNMP trap host destination. I have created a notification receiver for the SNMP traps inside the NCS GUI and enabled the "System" type alarm. This type includes alarms like NCS_DOWN and PI database is down. I am trying to understand what the difference between enabling SNMP-SERVER HOST via the CLI and setting the Notification destination inthe GUI is? Also how can I generate a NCS_DOWN alarm in my lab. Doing NCS stop does not generate any alarms. I have not been able to find much information on how to generate this as a test.
Secondly, how and which processes should I be monitoring from the Management Station? I cannot easily identify the main NCS procsses from the output of ps -ef when logged in the shell as root.
Thanks guys!

1.) What is the cost of having the scope in a <jsp:useBean> tag set to 'session'? I am aware that there are a list of scopes like page, application, etc. and that if i use 'session' my variable will live for as long as that session is alive. (did i get this right?). You should rather look to the functional requirements instead of costs. If the bean need to be session scoped (e.g. maintain the logged in user), then do it so. If it just need to be request scoped (e.g. single page form data), then keep it request scoped.
2.)If the JSP Page where i use that <useBean> is to be accessed hundred of times a day, will it compensate my server resources? Right now i am using the Sun Glassfish Server.It will certainly eat resources. Just supply enough CPU speed and memory to a server. You cannot expect that a webserver running at a Pentium 500MHz with 256MB of memory can flawlessly serve 100 simultaneous users at the same second. But you may expect that it can serve 100 users per 24 hour.
3.) Can you suggest best practice in memory management given the architecture i described above?Just write code so that it doesn't unnecessarily eat memory. Only allocate memory if your application need to do so. You should rather let the hardware depend on the application requirements, not to let the application depend on the hardware specs.
4.)Also, I have implemented connection pooling in my architecture, but my application is to be used by thousands of clients everyday.. Can the Sun Glassfish Server take care of that or will I have to purchase a powerful sever?Glassfish is just an application server software, it is not server hardware. Your concerns are rather hardware related.

Best practice for integrating a 3 point metro-e in to our network.

Hello,
We have just started to integrate a new 3 point metro-e wan connection to our main school office. We are moving from point to point T-1?s to 10 MB metro-e. At the main office we have a 50 MB going out to 3 other sites at 10 MB each. For two of the remote sites we have purchase new routers ? which should be straight up configurations. We are having an issue connecting the main office with the 3rd site.
At the main office we have a Catalyst 4006 and at the 3rd site we are trying to connect to a catalyst 4503.
I have attached configurations from both the main office and 3rd remote site as well as a basic diagram of how everything physically connects. These configurations are not working ? we feel that it is a gateway type problem ? but have reached no great solutions. We have tried posting to a different forum ? but so far unable to find the a solution that helps.
The problem I am having is on the remote side. I can reach the remote catalyst from the main site, but I cannot reach the devices on the other side of the remote catalyst however the remote catalyst can see devices on it's side as well as devices at the main site.
We have also tried trunking the ports on both sides and using encapsulation dot10q ? but when we do this the 3rd site is able to pick up a DHCP address from the main office ? and we do not feel that is correct. But it works ? is this not causing a large broad cast domain?
If you have any questions or need further configuration data please let me know.
The previous connection was a T1 connection through a 2620 but this is not compatible with metro-e so we are trying to connect directly through the catalysts.
The other two connection points will be connecting through cisco routers that are compatible with metro-e so i don't think I'll have problems with those sites.
Any and all help is greatly welcome ? as this is our 1st metro e project and want to make sure we are following best practices for this type of integration.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Jeff

Jeff, form your config it seems you main site and remote site are not adjacent in eigrp.
Try adding a network statement for the 171.0 link and form a neighbourship between main and remote site for the L3 routing to work.
Upon this you should be able to reach the remote site hosts.
HTH-Cheers,
Swaroop
