Diagram of BW Architecture

Can someone help with a link to where I can find a detailed diagram that shows Bw architecture. The flow of information ( from source system through to Infocubes).

hi,
try outthese links.

Content MS - Architecture/Implementation

Hi
Can someone point me to a document which explanin the underlying architecture
of the CMS. Whethr it uses Ejbs/classes/is the Data cached for the Content Operation
(add/delete). I want to write my own interface for BEA Content Management (do
not want to use BulkLoader OR myContent/Portal App tool). I am planning to develop
my own server side classes using the Content API/classes but before that wanted
to undestand the underlying arch of the CMS.
Any help would be highly appreciated
Pete

pete, below is an example of how to create a content node, with a binary property.
it also includes creating the content type (objectclass), which i don't believe
you will need to do. hopefully this will help.
repositoryMgr.connect();
NodeOps nops = repositoryMgr.getNodeOps();
ObjectClassOps ocops = repositoryMgr.getObjectClassOps();
ID repId = new ID();
repId.setRepositoryName(repositoryName);
PropertyDefinition[] pds = new PropertyDefinition[1];
pds[0] = new PropertyDefinition(repId, "binaryType", null, Property.BINARY,
false, false, false, false, false, null);
ObjectClass oc = new ObjectClass(repId, "schema", null, pds);
oc = ocops.createObjectClass(oc);
Node newNode = nops.createHierarchyNode(repId, "A");
Property[] props = new Property[1];
BinaryValue bv = new BinaryValue(mimeType, fileName, size, inputStream);
props[0] = new Property("binaryType", new Value(bv));
Node updatedNode = nops.addNodeContent(newNode.getId(), oc.getId(),
props);

Thanx for your reply.
I have been trying to take a look at the myContent portlet code but to
be very
honest with you it is too cluttered for me and I could not follow the
jpf code
however hard I try.
It would be extremely helpful to me if you can provide some sample code
which
just connects to a repository and then does some Add/Update function
on the CMs
tables.
Thanks, Pete
"James Owen" <[email protected]> wrote:
Pete, ok, so you want to configure your own repository (using the Portal
CM Repository),
then from a jsp, call your own classes that call the cm api, which will
store/retrieve
the content in the Portal CM Repository.
In that case, you don't need to do anything with the SPI, you'll just
be using
the CM API.
Just to clarify, when you "create" your own repository (using the Portal
CM Repository),
it doesn't really create a Repository, it just configures it, more like
a jdbc
connection. So if you delete the BEA Repository and then create your
own, using
the same Repository class (shift plus / will fill it in for you) your
newly configured
repository will point to the same tables that the BEA Repository did,
so it is
more like a rename.
For api examples, I would suggest you take a look at the sample cm portlet
code
- not for best practices ;) - but it does give good examples of howto
use the
api to create content, search, etc. if it is doesn't address your specific
questions
then let me know.

James, Thanks for the answers, Your Question
sorry, i'm not following what you would like to do. if you are developing
your
own ui, then all you'll just need to use the API, if you would liketo
expose
your own repository to the Virtual Repository then you will need toimplement
the SPI. what exactly is your goal?My goal is to have a UI(JSP) which in turn will call some functionsin
a Server
Side class for CRUD operation on a new Repository(with my <Application
name> Repository
instead of BEA Repository) in BEA PORTAL DB. Currently I do not have
my Virtual
repository, I just will use the BEA's virual repository and either
rename
it to
<app>Repository OR will create a new repository in the BEA Portal DB.
Do you think
If I just write some functions in a server side class for Content Oprations
using
the API that should suffice OR I will have to implement SPI
Also it would be extremely helpful if you could provide me with some
sample code
for connecting to a repository in BEA PORTAL DB and some function like
adding/updating
content in the that repository. You have been very helpful so far,thanks
a bunch

Thanks for the diagram.
1. From this it becomes clear that the Content SPI is a combinationof
Entity
and Session beans and the property set is a Facade pattern, am I
correct
in my
understanding?
this is true of the BEA Content Repository, which implements the Content
SPI.
2. If the Content Database it implemented as a Entity Bean (probably
CMP) then
is it safe to assume that it is cached?Yes, it is CMP and yes, the beans are cached with the default setting
(1000).
You can up the settings by cracking open the descriptor in content_repo.jar.
3. what is the diff between BEA content SPI and Content SPI I am
planning
to develop
the server side classes for Adding/Updating/Deleting Content in BEACMS
(developing
my own methods using content API), do you think it is safe to do
it
this
way.sorry, i'm not following what you would like to do. if you are developing

[Java and all else] How do you document DB design?

Hello,
Although most of the technical choices are explicit in SQL (UniqueKey & ForeignKey constraints, indexes,...), the semantics of the data columns and their constraints seem better served as plain human-readable comments ("ID column: identifies the plane copy; 6 figures are enough as we don't expect to sell more than 1 million planes in a foreseeable future...").
In my current system, (EJB-based, but the DB schema is not created by the JPA-compliant ORM, but via SQL scripts), I see the following ways to write and maintain this documentation:
- SQL comments in the schema creation and patch scripts
- Javadoc comments in the Java source of the Entity classes.
- UML notes in UML diagrams(1)
- external "Architecture and design" document.
All 4 of them are used, sometimes inconsistently, for various parts of the design choices; I mean, the docs do not contradict themselves (not yet, but it's a mere question of time), but some tables are commented in SQL scripts, others are in design docs, and the details for some columns are in entity javadocs. Although each developer may find it handier to "write" the doc via his preferred medium, it becomes increasingly difficult to "maintain" theoverall documentation.
Our current situation is that most of the project team members are Java developers, so it would probably be better accepted and served if we standardized that we document DB tables and columns in Java source, but I am worried that:
- someone else pouring over our DB (ex: DBA helping us to optimize things, or other team developping a data-mining tool to leverage the historical data in DB) may not be as comfortable with Java
- this may not cover all design choices of the DB schema:
- - - - first, although that is the case currently, in the future there might not be a 100% 1-1 mapping between e.g. each entity class and a DB table. Maybe some columns will not need to be mapped anymore,...
- - - - second, I fear some DB constructs are not amenable to Java counterparts; no accurate idea there, I'm not an SQL nor JPA expert, but I presume Indexes, table partitioning, tablespaces, for example (yes, the DBMS is Oracle :o) are not taken into account in JPA mapping.
And if we document those choices at the SQL level (my preferred idea so far), this will gradually make the javadocs in the entities obsolete, or removed altogether, and that will make future maintenance of the Java source risky.
How do you document your DB design in general?
Do you have specific advices for my case?
Thanks in advance,
J.

Thank you again.
A couple more questions:
2. Table, and proc dictionary maintained as one or more text files. Those files and schema are all in source control.Do you mean, a proprietary text format (a la tabledesign.txt), or +.sql+ source files? Again, you seem to suggest the scehma info is present in two locations.I didn't say two locations unless you meant files. Then yes.Yes I meant two files. I trust the team to get the doc file lagging a few revisions behind the SQL file, and to correct that I would have to include one more step in the review process (e.g. "review CM actions to check that the doc file is updated consistently with the SQL source").
The tool I wrote would throw errors if the comment file didn't match the schema. And if comments were not provided. That of course doesn't stop someone from documenting a table with "a table".
You can of course keep the addtional info as special comments in the SQL, but when I did this, and even in retrospect, it seems better and perhaps easier to keep them seperate. I have done special comments in SQL before and it seems a bit of a kluge but you do have the single source. But in that case I was the only one maintaining it too.What do you mean by "special"?For code generation I have a schema file with the following (pseudo sql.)
    create mytable
       mytable_id int,
       column_foo varchar(10);
       column_fum varchar(20)
        -- Query: for_a_query (column_foo, column_fum)
    )The generator consumes the schema and generates the standard CRUD which would include a query based on the primary key.
The above comment is used to provide an additional query where the proc is named 'for_a_query' (munged with table name) and takes two parameters (column_foo, column_fum) whose type/name matches those of the table.
If we don't try to generate a browseable HTML out of the schema (although the idea is appealing, I don't have the resource to make such a tool), do you see anything kludgy in maintaining SQL comments interpersed within DDL code?
Of course that is doable.

Creating a Listener on Another Machine (WebServer)

Hi,
How can I create a listener on a server without a database installed ?
I have a server (name: webserver) with an Internet IP Address (ex: 141.146.8.66) and a domain (ex: www.oracle.com). On another server on my LAN (name: dbserver) I have a database server with Oracle 8i installed and a listener on it. I have a database (db01) on dbserver.
On my machine I have a tnsnames service configured pointing to the listener on dbserver. So I can connect to db01 using:
conn scott/tiger@db01
I want to create a listener on my webserver pointing to db01. So I can alter tnsnames pointing to www.oracle.com or 141.146.8.66 an thus connect from any machine with Internet Connection to my oracle database.
Is it possible ? How can I do this ?
Thanks.

You would need to install Oracle Connection Manager on the web server machine and configure that to proxy connections to the database server.

How to Test AIR 1.5

Sorry if this seems slightly off center, but I blame Adobe, not myself. Trying to determine the true status and positioning of AIR amongst the various Flex forums and projects for an outsider is practically impossible. So, I will be brief. In September Mr. Chambers sent opened the flow by telling us that we could find FP10 integrated with Flex SDK in something you call 1.5 or Cosmo, or both. He was properly circumspect, so I didn't rush into it -- there was not even an ADL binary when I checked. Now it is November, the Trunk is at 4005, and ostensibly, everything we need to start trying to take advantage of FP support of 3D operations is out there. But where? Where do we get a version of AIR 1.5 that can be installed on a target desktop, so that we can try to run the ADT test cycle?
Call it Gumbo, call it Flex4, call it whatever, but can someone tell us how to start testing it for AIR application deployment?
Thank you.

<DIV>I am sure you are right about an AIR application being able to use Loader and SWFLoader. I hope I have more or less figured out the right way to do that. But, I guess my point is that none of the documentation I have been able to find anywhere would answer the question about what to do with the framework and/or rpc files. What, as far as you understand it, is the correct way to manage the use of the Aface=Arial size=2>dobe swz files in an AIR application?</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black">From: <A [email protected] href="mailto:[email protected]">Josh McDonald</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">To: <A [email protected] href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 11:01 PM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Subject: Re: How to Test AIR 1.5</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>A new message was posted by Josh McDonald in Developers -- How to Test AIR 1.5 I'm sure there's nothing stopping you from loading SWFs and SWZs and SWCs and loading them in AIR?

Thanks, I will continue testing with ADL and hopefully be able to move up to a web-base, remote installation/update scenario in a couple of weeks. 02. I'm sorry you feel that my failure to accept what may be 'intuitively obvious to you' -- that I can design and test a 3D front end to FMS that works the same in a native window as in a browser window -- indicates any lack of faith in what will be delivered. So far, I have found subtle, important differences, and I am sure there will be others that will just have to be patiently tested before I get it right. 03. So, I'm glad you asked about swz in an AIR environment because that is a whole topic for which I have not been able to find any discussion on any of the many fine forums you have. I understand product marketing and product development, but I can't say that I ever managed those activities in the environment you have in which several large projects co-exist with lingering dependencies and even 'cultures' as diverse as you have with the various acquisitions that come together in the suite of products you have today. So, I will simply state that I think no one seems to have recognized that your paradigm for 'desktop' versus 'web-based' software -- the essential distinction which seems to describe Adobe's description of an AIR versus a Flex application -- does not always hold. I understand the general dichotomy, but it does not hold for my user base. You have lots of design papers and lots of software devoted to 'reducing the burden' of ever-growing executables in the Flex framework by caching of your or our rsls. That's a good idea. Why do you think it is not just as good an idea for an AIR application? Probably because you think that an AIR application will either be shipped on a CD, or sent over the Internet, but relatively infrequently, so who cares if you have to ship out 10MBs or 2MBs? My user cares. My user will get frequent updates to an ever-growing body of software called an application, and he will get them over those same slow bandwidth network links that the Flex user sees. What's "good for the goose is good for the gander". There is simply no reason not to architect the library of code that we use to cobble together the application and use the same intelligent caching mechanism in both environments. I looked for a month for a white paper or discussion of how to 'modularize' an AIR app but all that you wanted to publish were white papers on how to 'modularize' a Flex app. I'm sure that you guys have a bunch of object diagrams and product architecture blueprints that you have memorized -- but that is not what we see 'outside the black box'. What we see is a confusing distinction between the AIR efforts and the Flex efforts although the code base and efforts are substantially the same. And if that is true from an internals point of view, put on your end-user hat and look at how we view a AIR/Flex app -- it is all one. So, I develop the worlds greatest Juke Box and get it all going in Flex, then I move that into one Tab on one Screen in the AIR 'shell'. Then some guys go off and mostly use AIR-unique code to add a Tab that allows Drag and Drop creation of Slide Shows accompanied by voice overs, and another set of my guys go off to add the 'Sudoku' module in just plain old Flex. At some point in time in some ant task, we've got 10MB of code and X MBs of that is in one of our present [or future] swz files. Where is the distinction that says I should just ask my users to download the whole shooting match, when what he really wants to do is just download whatever updated or new application modules [including any upgrades to your frameworks] when required. So, it took some time, but today, my application is compiled with dynamic linking to the framework.swz, and when the user launches his AIR application on the desktop, the Flash Player, embedded in the AIR environment, is smart enough to find that it already has the necessary framework code and does not need to go back to the network to get it refreshed. Actually, since I could never figure out how to use Module and ModuleManager, the method for solving the framework caching problem ended up just being an extension of what I developed for version management 'with continuous update' of my own swf files. So, when the AIR shell starts up, it needs to test to see whether there is any updating to be done, or whether it already has locally available the 'latest and greatest' and that works the same for MyCute3DWizBang.swf or framework_3.1.0.2710.swz or framework_4.0.0.3988.swf. If you take the point of view that a 'desktop application' doesn't need to do anything special to solve the problem of 'large file downloads', you end up thinking that there is no reason for an AIR application to take advantage of the frameworked cache when, in fact, almost all of that code is needed whether the execution thread starts in a 'WindowApplication' or just a plain old 'Application'. At least thats the cockamaymee point of view that I came to in the absence of any 'best practice' discussion of these key topics -- so far, it seems to be working pretty well, but as you can guess, testing across a network to a remote host that may or may not have the right version of AIR, or the right version of framework, or the right version of MyCute3DWizBang is really more important than just testing against ADL. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Chotin" <<A href="mailto:[email protected]" target=_blank>[email protected]</A>> To: <<A href="mailto:[email protected]" target=_blank>[email protected]</A>> Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 8:39 PM Subject: Re: How to Test AIR 1.5 <BLOCKQUOTE class=gmail_quote style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: rgb(204,204,204) 1px solid">A new message was posted by Matt Chotin in Developers -- How to Test AIR 1.5 The badge install doesn't work with debug, you can only use adl.exe right now.

Air and the Flash Player are runtimes, and we've made it clear that AIR 1.5 would include FP10 features. So when we say Flex will enable FP10, it should be obvious that when AIR 1.5 comes out Flex will support it in the same way. I don't really understand what you're doing with the SWZ and AIR, there's no real need to use a cached framework when the whole app is going to be installed.

I think testing the whole Badge install sequence is essential, and would like to give it a try.

I am busy making the dynamic link to the framework.swz work for Flex modules running under an AIR shell, and I doubt that I am alone. There must be many of us who really see no distinction between AIR and Flex -- they just provide us two different ways to slice a problem, that's why it is so disconcerting to try to follow the threads on rapid Flex advancement with FP 10, but almost nothing pertaining the doing the very same things with the AIR toolkit.

OLAP cubes from heterogeneous data sources using XML DB

hi.
Q:1
How we can create an OLAP cube (XML cubes) from XML data sources if using XML DB.
Q:2
How we can create an OLAP cubes from warehouses and flat files and covert these cubes into XML cubes.
Q:3
Is there any other tool (Except Analytical workspace manager AWM) which supports the construction of OLAP cubes in XML format from heterogeneous data sources?

Hi Stuart!
Your undersatnding is partially correct. i am working for providing an architecture for XOLAP, XML is one of my data source.
The idea is to generate uniform cubes from heterogeneous sources that can be integrated into a global cube. instead of building Oracle OLAP cubes from all the sources (this work is already done) i want to generate an XCube from XML data sources using XQuery.
On the other hand if we have generated the Oracle OLAP cube from other sources like warehouses or flat files. i have to convert these Oracle OLAP cube into XML cube for uniformity. in an research paper i find that there is an operator Xcube embedded in XQuery which converts the multidimensional data (cube) into XML cube. im looking for the implementation of this operator in Query that how this operator works.
hope u understand my architecture. but if u still have some confusion, kindly give me ur mail id. i will mail the diagram of my architecture.
thanks.

Specifying OLAP Cubes On XML Data

Hi,
is there any good example on how does OLAP handle XML data ?
is it possible such a management in Oracle 9i Release 2 ?

What is a developer?

If any of you would take the time in assisting to compile a list of questions, which can be asked during an interview, I would be grateful.
The position would be an oracle developer; strong Pl/Sql skills, tunning knowledge, with some DBA skills. One of the other skills needed is the ability to work with 'prima-dona' GUI developers (most with only VB as their language of choice).
Any, questions would be greatly appreciated.

V:
Tom Kyte has a few that he likes to ask (search "Interview Questions" on asktom). One is to have the candidate draw a diagram showing the architecture of an Oracle instance, showing the background processes and the memory structures and how they interrelate. The second set deal with basic sql knowledge. He asks:
I have a table, t with columns ( ..., month_no, ....). The month_no column contains values from 1 to 12 and there may be multiple values for any month_no.
1. What sql statement would I use to find out how many rows are in the table?
2. What sql statement would I use to find out how many rows there are for each month_no?
3. What sql statement would I use to find which month_no has the most rows? For bonus points, tell me why this question is ambiguous.
I recently interviewd 9 candidates for an intermediate DBA position and used these questions. A couple of the candidates were OCP, and all of them claimed past experioence, many of them in a development environment.
Only one candidate answered question 1 correctly without having to think, two others got it with some prodding. Only one candidate got number 2 correct, and that took a little prodding. No one got number three at all, although the candidate who got 1 and 2 made a reasonable stab at it, and might have corrected himself with a chance to actually run the query he came up with.
We asked these questions early in the interview. The ones who did not get question 1 had very short interviews.

Looking for BPM Enterprise Edition architecture Diagram

I am looking for a BPM Enterprise Edition architecture Diagram showing how all the pieces (e.g. BPM, Oracle DB, LDAP directory, WebLogic server, Application server etc.) fit together . If it is available on the internet, can you please let me know the URL ?
Thanks in advance.

I have several diagrams you could use but can't paste it in. The product docs on oracle.com have some but if you need something else maybe I can help. I do not publish my email on this site so we would have to find another channel to communicate.

Oracle 11g R2 Architecture Diagram

Hi,
I trust this is the right way to go about the following
Few years ago I created an architecture diagram for 10g. I have now updated that diagram to include new features of Oracle 11g. Obviously there is so much one can detail in one page PDF Architecture diagram. It is in draft stage so I will appreciate any feedback on the diagram before I release it to the community. I have not released it on any website yet as I am keen on direct feedbacks. Anyone who is interested please send me an email to [email protected] and I will forward the diagram for their comments.
Regards,
Mich

Hussein's comment in this thread was spot-on correct.
Multi-posting is poor forum etiquette at best and outright rudeness that exhibits arrogance at worst.
Your other thread has an appropriate response that directs you to the product's documentation.

SAP IDM 7.0/7.1 Project Plan and Architecture Landscape Diagrams

Need help in identifying whether there is anybody that has a generic project plan along with resources needed in implementing IDM 7.0/7.1. I am also looking for a generic landscape diagram. Any help would be appreciated.

Matt,
Interesting question and one that I think we can answer, but we need a few specifics first (even for a generic)
1. Are you using 7 or 7.1? This is a biggie since there are big differences in implementation.
2. What's your source for Identity data? What are your targets? Even a basic of (Source is HR, targets are ERP, LDAP and badging app)
3. What workflows are you implementing?
4. What is your development approach? Dev / QA / Prod? This can be important too.
For architecture info, take a look at some of the documents available from SAP.
Anyway, a very generic would be:
1.0 Identify requirements
1.1 Sources
1.2 Targets
1.3 Workflows
2.0 Development Environment
2.1 Install Core Components
2.2 Install IdM
2.3 Connector creation
2.3.1 Source (X)
2.3.2 Target A
2.3.3 Target B
2.4 Workflow creation
2.4.1 Notification Tasks
2.4.2 Self Service Tasks
2.5.3 ...
2.6 Unit Testing
3.0 QA
Feel free to contact me if you have further questions
