Difference between SOA & AIA

Hi All,
I've been exploring Service-Oriented-Architecture (SOA) and came across Oracle's Application Integration Architecture (AIA). I read that AIA has been implemented using SOA Suite but couldn't distinguish these two terms clearly.
Can anybody inform me the differences between these terms - Oracle's SOA and Oracle's AIA?
Thanks a lot!

There is an acronym glossary in:

perhaps you find the answer there.

Difference between SOA & ESA

Hi,
Can someone explain the brief concept of ESA.
I know there are lot of links wrt this information, i want to know what is the specific difference between SOA & ESA, functionally and technically?
Thanks a lot ..

Hi
In a nutshell, ESOA are simply Web services that provide enterprise-level business functionality.They may range from very simple lookup services (like finding a companys location or product offerings) to more complex and composite services but what they have in common is that theyre highly integrated into your process or application.Typically ESOA are high-level components that take more granular Web services and aggregate them into reusable elements with business value. For example, take the service Cancel Purchase Order. An elementary Web service like Delete Purchase Order would simply lead to the deletion of a purchase order in the corresponding database. However, if the stated goal is cancel purchase order, the service has to become a more far-reaching enterprise service that handles this process end-to-end, and therefore has to trigger a number of follow-up actions, including:
=> Check against production orders
=> Check against a corresponding billing process
=> Update of inventory/warehouse information Or consider the Credit Limit Check
service, which at first glance seems to be quite simple. Normally, this service is one ingredient of the Order Creation service. But typically, credit checking is
really a more elaborate composite service.
5 Key Principles of ESOA
1. Abstraction hiding confusing details
2. Modularity breaking down complexity, resulting in reusable pieces
3. Standardized connectivity enabling flexible composition of services to
create bigger processes and scenarios
4. Loose coupling allowing for separate evolution of the various components
without breaking any points of integration
5. Incremental design enabling changes to composition and configuration
without affecting the interior of components, and vice versa

Difference between SOA and B1ISN

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me what is the difference between SOA and B1ISN ???
Thanks

Hi,
SOA, and more specifically eSOA, is a common service-oriented architecture / platform for SAP products. Partners can build business applications in .NET based around and on top of this new architecture for SAP Business One and other SAP / 3-rd party applications (one of the samples provided shows integration between SAP Business One and Outlook). You can find more information about eSOA [here|https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001387112008E].
B1iSN is SAP's existing integration solution for integrating data between SAP Business One and SAP R/3. It is built on top of SAP's B1iP technology. Users can either develop custom content / scenarios by using the core B1iSN solution, or can develop totally new and distinct solutions using B1iP. You can find most information about B1iP in this forum.
In a more general sense, the answer to your question is that eSOA is a platform / architecture which allows the creation of integration solutions, while B1iSN is an existing solution built on top of B1iP.

Difference between SOA Suite 64 Bit and SOA Suite 32 Bit

Hi,
I am new to SOA. I want to install SOA Suite 64 Bit on my laptop which 64 Bit system and has Window 8 64 Bit.
I am curious to know that what is the difference between SOA Suite 64 Bit and SOA Suite 32 Bit.
Are there different installations available for 64 Bit and 32 Bit?
Or
Installations are same for 64 Bit and 32 Bit but it's only depends on whether JDK is 64 Bit or 32 Bit.
Thanks,
Prashant Jain

Hi Anatoli,
Thank you for your quick response. I really appreciate it.
I can download the latest SOA Suite but still I am curious to know that how can I use the same SOA Suite which I have as 64 Bit.
Steps may be,
1. Install JDK 64 Bit.
2. Install the same weblogic with -D64 option.
3. Install the rest of the software (most probably downloaded for Window 32 Bit not for generic 64 Bit).
Will this make SOA Suite installation 64 Bit? Apologize if I am keep asking silly questions
Thanks,
Prashant Jain

What is the difference between SOA and AIA

Hi All,
Can you please let me know the need of SOA and AIA both ?
Regards
Kumar

SOA is an underlying backbone or an infrastructure that supports and provides for web services. AIA is another technology from Oracle which is based on SOA.
SOA offers different components such as BPEL, Mediator etc to build, test and publish web services. AIA is more of a framework which provides artifacts like the EBO, EBM which are standards based. These are part of a Foundation Pack. The artifacts can be used to build flows using BPEL and Mediator.
Oracle themselves have come up with pre-developed, tested BPEL/Mediator flows which execute a business scenatrio. These are called PIPs and one can install and integrate systems to execute the common industry business cases.

What's the difference between AIA 3.0 and AIA FP 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0)

Hi, experts,
Have a question need your great help and clarification, you know we have Oracle AIA Foundation Pack 2.5 based on SOA 10.1.3.4 installation, the new release for SOA has been released on this version Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g R1 (11.1.1.4.x) Released the other day, within this version, we have a Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0) based on SOA11g.
My questions are as below
1) What's difference between AIA 3.0 and Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0)?
2) We know, on the top of AIA 2.5, we have Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.2.0) and Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0), doesn't mean that the Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0) has another nickname that is AIA3.0?
3) Does anyone provide AIA 3.0 installation and implementation guide?
Appreciated if you could provide some suggestions or comments based on above question, thanks in advance!

Please see the answers below...
#1 . AIA 3.0 is internal project name, AIA 11g R1 is an official release which is 11.1.1.2.0, then after two patch sets released they are 11.1.1.3.0 and 11.1.1.4.0
#2 hope the above answered your question.
#3 AIA 11g R1 x install and developer guides available on OTN.

Difference between aia 2.5 and aia 3.0 (R1)

Can any one put some input on it .........
Thx in advance ...
Edited by: 807572 on Jul 28, 2011 5:51 AM

Hi,
There are numerous differences. You can refer http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/316029 for details. Some that I can think of are:
1. SOA Suite 10g to 11g (SCA Architecture, Unified Console, Unified Development, Weblogic Server, Mediator instead of ESB etc.)
2. Huge no. of EBOs in AIA 3.x
3. AIA Artefacts (EBOs, EBSs) reside in MDS and referenced using MDS URL instead of direct URLs
4. New Programming/reference models
5. Extended Error handling framework
There are many more for which you can refer the documentation.

Differences between human workflow in SOA Suite or in BPM Suite?

according to:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/index-090227.html
both oracle suites have human workflow.
can anyone point out what is the real difference then between this two human workflow components?
if there is non:
can anyone point out big differences between BPM suite and SOA Suite?
regards chris

There are no difference.
BPM Suite 11g is deployed on top of SOA Suite 11g and it uses the Human Workflow of SOA Suite only.
You will see additional functionalities in Human Workflow if you are having a BPM suite instead of SOA Suite like Business Calendar, Protected Flex Fields, Application Roles, AMX functionalities will be enabled by default, etc.

Difference between ESOA and SOA Middle ware

Hi All
Can anybody explain me the difference between ESOA and SOA Middle Ware?
Thanks
SIM

Hi SIM,
SOA and ESOA are not middlewares.
They are architectures.
SOA is Service Oriented Architecture
ESOA is same as SOA with some business semantics which is initiated by SAP to reduce the complexity of business process and problems.
Middleware is any tool which is used to integrate different technologies and platform like XI .
XI is a middleware tool which supports SOA and ESOA. I.e by using SOAP adapter you can expose web services which can have business meaning also.
Hope this helps.

Piyush
