How to connect to oracle ebs from an external software

Hi!
I want to develop an integration for oracle EBS. Therefor I'm looking for ways how to connect to the EBS and for a repository of functions which can be called from an external program. I'm not quite sure if this is the right place to ask but I could not find anything yet so I'm trying here.
Are there any standard connectors for the EBS provided by Oracle?
Thanks,
Konrad

Oracle Applications Architecture is a framework for multi-tiered, distributed computing that supports Oracle Applications products. In this model, various servers are distributed among multiple levels/tiers as follows:
- The Desktop Tier --> Web browser with Jinitiator or Sun JRE
- The Application Tier --> Web, Forms, Reports, Admin, and Concurrent servers
- The Database Tier --> Oracle Enterprise Edition Database
The Application tier is the layer which is responsible for:
- Hosting the various servers that process the business logic
- Managing communication between the desktop tier and the database tier
So, in order to connect to the database, you can either access the application tier, or connect directly to the database. I do not think it is possible to communicate with the application services from some other application. Therefore, you would need to connect to the database directly which can be achieved as explained in my previous reply. There is no such API which can be used to open/close a database connection. Oracle E-Business Suite is just a database with number of schemas and objects which are tightly integrated.
More details about Oracle E-Business Architecture can be found in:

  • Not able to connect to Oracle EBS from host Windows 7

    Hi, I have installed oracle EBS version 12.1.1 (32 bit) on OEL ver 6.3 (32 bit). I have installed Linux on Oracle VM virtualbox ver 4.1.16.

  • How to connect to  Oracle database from webdynprojava application

    Hi
    How to connect to  Oracle database from webdynprojava application. where can we provide the code to connect to database.?
    Thank You.

    Hi,
    You need to create  Java Bean model. The bean is a typical java bean with default constructor, getter and setter. You can have additional methods for query etc. The attributes in the class will be your model node and attributes.
    However you need to configure the connection and create JNDI using visual administrator before writing the code.
    You can also consider writing Session EJB with oracle and using them in WD.

  • How to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition

    I have installed visual basic 2010 express edition on windows xp. But visual basic 2010 express edition supports Microsoft sql server database file,Microsoft sql server compact 3.5, Microsoft access database file. I want to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition. So what drivers are required and how to do connectivity?

    Hello,
    I wasn't clear on what you were using to make the connection. I had a look in Visual Studio 2010 (don't have express to test sorry).
    I think you mean the Data Sources available under the menu Data-> Datasources. this seems to match the description you give when I
    look at the list of datasource options.
    In here you can make ODBC connections via the Microsoft .net Data Provider .
    If you select ODBC as a datasource you can see listed the DSN's you created - for example I see 2 which use the Oracle ODBC driver.
    This assumes you installed an Oracle Client + the oracle version of the ODBC driver (comes with the oracle client).
    Once you created a server connection then you should see it in the server explorer.
    You can also download the Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio which is an add on for VS.
    ** I suspect this is only for VS 2010 and I didn't see that Express was supported.

    Let me know if that helps.

  • How to connect to Oracle 11gR2 from CF9

    Hi,
    how to connect to Oracle 11gR2 64 bit Database from CF9?
    In CF Administrator no Oracle Driver is available.
    Do I have to install Oracle Client Software on Server Hardware where CF9 Server is installed?
    If yes, is Oracle Instant Client is enough or do I have to install full oracle client?
    Any idea?
    regards Claudia

    Excellent, glad to hear it's sorted. Just be careful if you use any of the "advanced" features such as returning querysets from stored procedures or BLOBs, apparently there are differences between the JDBC and full DataDirect drivers in those cases.
    However in 99% of cases you won't notice the difference.

  • Need to find out a way to figure out how DB2 connect to Oracle and data mirroring etc.

    Hi, Gurus,
    I just take over a project which source is ICOMS as400 db2 database. Seems data mirro CDC is used to replicate from DB2 to oracle.
    I am very new to this datamirror CDC , plus I am new to figure out how db2 connect to oracle, is that through db link or what? or is there tnsnames entry?
    I would like anybody in this forum can point me to the right direction.
    Thanks in advance.

    user9233598, if mirroring/replication from DB2 to Oracle already exists then question is what product is being used?  If the product has already been purchased then I do not think it is very likely that management is going to want to purchase another product so I do not see how extra-cost Golden Gate or other Oracle Gateway features apply if those are not currently in use.  If Golden Gate or the Oracle Transparent Gateway are in use then you already have your answer
    Oracle supports ODBC/JODBC and the replication application on the AS400 likely uses these features or a thick Oracle client as the interface to Oracle.

  • How to display a oracle table from a java program?

    How to display a oracle table from a java program.
    Hello friends, I have written a Java program, using oracle 10g as backend.
    I want to display a oracle table as output. Im not getting how to display oracle table as a output table.. Pls help me
    Thank you

    jayanthds, you're not going to get a satisfactory
    answer to this here. it's too big a task to justbe
    quickly outlined in a forum - the reply "all youneed
    to do is to query you table and return it asJTable"
    is worthless, for example, since the solution to
    any problem can be distilled to such a
    soundbite, if need be. doesn't make the solutionany
    simpler
    essentially you're asking "how do I write adatabase
    application?". all you'll get is snippets of code
    that, when fitted together, will eventually helpyou
    do this, but you'll spend days and days comingback
    saying "right, I've done that, now what?" until
    either you or the forum gets frustrated with the
    whole affair and the process stops
    there are entire books written about this subject,
    and countless tutorials and guides on theinternet.
    you're better off going down that routehehehe.well, it's true! I used to have a manager that would outline the solution to a problem in a few lines of pseudocode, and then firmly believe that the actual solution would be just as brief and simple. shame his pseudocode included such lofty abstractions as "reformat all data"

  • How to connect to oracle jdbc?

    How to connect to oracle database if jdbc thin driver is used? Any example ?
    I saw this in a tutorial but I can't get what are inside the parenthesis.
    OracleConnection connect = (OracleConnection)DriverManager.getConnection(" ", , );
    Anyone can help?Thx!

    I still can't get it.
    It said:
    # Thin Driver, a 100% Java driver for client-side use without an Oracle installation, particularly with applets. The Thin driver type is thin. To connect user scott with password tiger to a database with SID (system identifier) orcl through port 1521 of host myhost, using the Thin driver, you would write :
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
    ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@myhost:1521:orcl", "scott", "tiger");
    I don't even know my SID , port & host. How to get them?

    How do i import my library from an external hard drive. Had to export it as had to reinstal windows due to a conflict between windows and i-tunes. Wen i try to import nothing happens despite selecting the file. Can you import from an i-phone to i-tunes?

    What do you mean bye exported the library? 
    There is nothing to export or import.
    The correct process to backup the iTunes library would be to copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the computer to the external drive.

  • HT1727 how do I transfer my iTunes from an external hard drive to a different computer?

    How do I transfer my iTunes from an external hard drive to a pc?

    If you don't have all of your music files within the iTunes Music folder structure, simply moving all of your music to a new location will not result in your iTunes library automatically updating the file paths to all of your songs appropriately. If you have a few other locations in which you store your music, you can take the ExportImport script turingtest2 wrote, make the modifications below, export the results, paste them into Microsoft Word or Excel, do a Find and Replace with the correct file location, and then import the new locations. To use the script, follow turingtest2's instructions on this thread as posted on Dec 19, 2012 6:28 AM.
    Note that the modifications, while they worked for me, show my lack of experience with VB as the progress bar will no longer work. Definitely be sure to back up your iTunes library file before executing the script with the below modifications, but doing this for 3500 items didn't even take 2 minutes for the script to run.
    Line 89 was:        Prog=True
    Line 89 is now:     Prog=False
    * I had to do this because otherwise the progress bar was erroring out. So, i just turned it off.
    Lines 164-165 were:    
    'File.WriteLine "<#>" & .Location           ' Not so useful if working with missing tracks
    'File.WriteLine "<Album>" & .Album
    Lines 164-165 are now three lines (the middle one is the only uncommented line): 
    'File.WriteLine "<#>" & .Location           ' Not so useful if working with missing tracks
    File.WriteLine "<Location>" & .Location          
    'File.WriteLine "<Album>" & .Album
    Finally, insert this whole block around line 270 so that it looks similar to the others:
            Case "<location>"
              If T.Location<>Value Then                ' Don't update if value won't change
                T.Location=Value
                U=U+1
                Trace T,"Updated Location"
              Else
                V=V+1
              End If
              'If Trace Then MsgBox "Updated Location"
    Note that I had to comment the very last line as well or else the program errored out. You won't be able to trace the results either.
    Just thought I'd share this in case anyone else needed something like this.
