Intermedia and application Servers

I need your advise:
If I want to use intermedia for working with images in web environment, Is it necessary having Oracle application server as the middle tire server, or no , other kind of application servers like tomkat ,
java application server and apache are acceptable?
If yes, Can you advise me where I can find the information about configuring intermedia for working with application servers rather than OAS?
Thanks for your answers
Shahram

You can use Intermedia with other application servers, you don't need to get the interMedia Web Agent
For example, any java application environment can talk to Oracle via JDBC.
You can send SQL queries to to the database using the contains(indexed_column_name, 'keywords')>0 statement to query the Intermedia text indexes, and you could use simple text URLs for the image reference, if the image is on the filesystem, rather than as a BLOB in the database.
If you were dealing with BLOBs in the database, you could write a stored procedure in the database that has a BLOB as an IN OUT param and use a jdbc CallableStatement to call the stored procedure, and get the BLOB image data.
Similarly, you could use any other web application environment, as long as it can issue SQL queries to Oracle.
e.g. Perl using the DBI module with the Oracle DBD module.

  • Advantages of using a webserver inbetween a load balancer and application servers

    I am building out a new weblogic domain.
    I am wondering which one of these configuration to go with:
    1. Load balancer > weblogic servers
    2. Load balancer > web server > weblogic servers
    Could someone tell me what are the specific advantages of having web servers inbetween a load balancer and application servers (besides caching static data content and acting as a proxy)?
    Thanks in advance
    Srini

    Other than hosting the static content, nothing much really.   We have our load balancer go straight to WL for applications without static content and route to web server if there is static content.   Easy enough to do it both ways, best of both worlds.

  • How do we decide the number of data base servers and application servers ?

    Dear Gurus,
    How do we decide the number of data base servers and application servers in BW ?
    How does this number help in data load balance and reporting needs ?
    Any hard n fast rule in the number of servers ?
    Regards
    Mohan

    Hi Mohan,
    Check the number of application server in the T-code SM66.... and also u can check the it in Sm50 on appplication server basiss./.
    From Sm37 u can see the application server Push button.. if u click on that also.. u can see the number of application servers in the system..
    Get into the individual application server and check how many Dialogue and background WP's are free,,
    If u see that the considerable number of WP are free(Waiting for task).. then u can shedule the loads..
    If most of the WP are  busy then u need to wait to trigger ur loads to maintain the load balancing..
    If one Application server is too busy then u can check the other Application Servers in the systems..
    And u can shedule the loads on a specific application sever level as well using the PC..
    Thanks
    I hope this is clear to u..

  • EP7 Sizing :db Instance and application servers SAPS splitting

    Hello,
    We are about to install a SAP EP7 EHPA in High Availability Mode.
    Database : Oracle 10.2 on HP-UX.
    The sizing has been performed, we require 10000 SAPS.
    We will perform a distributed installation on several servers :
    DBInstance on a dedicated physical host, and Applications servers on other machines.
    Therefore we still have to decide how the required 10000 SAPS should be splitted between DB host
    and the others hosts. For example : 30 % DB and 70 % Others
    I'm aware that it is specific to the EP usage but I just want to have an overall idea
    I tried to find that kind of information on SAP benchmark, or HP websites but didn't find anything.
    Any help on this question will be apreciated.
    Regards.
    Raoul

    Hi Raoul,
    you are absolutely right - it depends on how you use EP. If you expect a lot of data in your database you will need to use a higher percentage. Maybe you should also think about the data source configuration for user management you'd like to use. This can contain a lot of data if you use database only with a lot of roles, groups and users. Another point would be how you like to archive log files. The portal may produce a lot of log files - depending on your settings and on the activity at the portal. If you like to archive them for a very long time you will need a lot of space. Another thing is portal activity report for example. It generates a lot of data in the database for weekly, monthly and daily aggregation when there is a lot of activity in the portal. Maybe this helps you to decide...

  • Is it possible to trigger backups of callmanagers, and application servers from prime collaboration?

    I have prime collaboration assuarance and analytics version 10.5  installed in my LAB setup. I could not see any other options other than the backup option under the administration tab; I beleive this option is to schedule and run backups for prime collaboration. Wonder if we have some options to trigger backups for call managers and other application servers...any help is much appreciated....cheers

    Hi,
    I doubt that is possible.the below link talks about
    Performing Backup and Restore for Prime Collaboration Analytics
    Prime Collaboration Analytics allows you to perform backup and restore, while you continue to use the Prime Collaboration Analytics GUI. However, until the backup is complete, the data displayed in the GUI may not be the latest.

  • Agents for database and application servers

    hi all,
    I have to go to a client site this week to install Gagents onto some database servers, some will be RAC and some application servers. it is on AIX. are there different agents for database and applications? In a RAC cluster do I need an agent per node?
    rgds
    alan

    When installing agents in a cluster (read - RAC), during the installation, on one of the screens, you will have the option of picking up all the nodes in the cluster. Else, if you are using a push or agent deploy method, you just have to pass the correct flag (can't remember) and then list all the nodes in the cluster.
    To your other questions, you do not need different agents for database, and app servers etc. The only time you would need different agents is when you are installing on different platforms.

  • Web and Application servers

    Hi
    Sorry if I'm asking this at a wrong place.
    I wanted to know the default application server and web server for that will be the part of EPM 11.1.1.3 installation.
    I see that in 11.1.2.1, the defaults are Oracle Weblogic and Oracle HTTP during installation. But I don't see anything during 11.1.1.3 installation. Please aid me in this regard.
    Thanks

    Well, thanks but this wasn't what i m looking to. What I actually need is to see the comparison in terms of:
    - Reliability
    - Functionalities
    - Portabilities
    - Scalibities
    - Stabilities
    - And other special features

  • JDeveloper 11g ADF and application servers

    I am new to JDeveloper and have enjoyed the 11g but I am concerned about deployment of my code. Can I deploy an 11g ADF application to Oracle Application Server 10gAS version 10.1.2.0.2 or will I need to request an upgrade of the server which will be hard to accomplish?
    Thanks :)

    Hi,
    In theory you can but you have to be careful what you are doing.
    I wouldn't encourage you to do this.
    You can't use the new ADF rich faces if you plan to deploy to an older OAS. You have to be careful to select the right JDK while developing (11g uses 1.6.x).
    I'm not sure that you can start a new project in 11g using the older Oracle stuff entirely.
    So if you plan to use the new features try to get an update to WLS 10g R3.

  • Difference Between central instance And application instance

    Hi every body can any one tell me that
    what is the difference between Central instance and Application instance.
    If i am using 4.7 ee with orcale data base.

    Check these links
    http://oreilly.com/catalog/sapadm/chapter/ch01.html
    Basically these terms comes when you are working on live servers where all the users log into to do their daily work.
    We says when we want to distribute the workload on servers we requires central instance and application servers.
    Normally it is not known to common users where they are logging into...but they can login directly usign the specific Instance details of servers.
    Please see this also

  • Multiple Application Servers - Same class instance

    Hi,
    Due to increasing load we have to add multiple Web Servers and Application Servers (custom built) for our Web Application.
    As currently we are using 'synchronized' for adding and releasing connection in ConnectionPool and also using static in several other classes - we have to make these few classes single instance across the application servers.
    We are using iPlanet 6.0 for Win 2000. Is there any way we can direct specific classes for a single instance. Please provide me with all sorts of alternatives.
    Thanks a lot,
    Suman Biswas

    Hi,
    Yes, we have different JVMs. Different JVM means different processes,now there can be two cases,these process running on same machines
    or on different machines.If it is in different machines then undoubtly you require to go for the Distributed Technology(RMI for java).
    As we have couple of classes which are using
    'synchronized' - cann't we use centralized classes for
    these couple of classes to maintain integrity?Yes you can do it,now this centralized class should be available in common place from where your all applications can get results,and for avoiding the data corruption your require to go for synchronized(if some global variables) block,since the same instance will be serving all the requests.
    When you say RMI - my question is how the commercial products handle these kind of issues while they are in multiple servers?I have created some application using RMI but not the same one which you had specified.I had used it for different purpose.

  • Move and redeploy application- and web-servers for Planing?

    Hi, all!
    Have Hyperion Planing ability to move application- and web-servers from unix-machine to another win-machine and after redeploy existing unix-installed planing on it?

    They are actually for for 2 different things. The Sun WAS is for enterprise applications, EJBs and the like.
    Tomcat is for simpler Servlet/JSP hosting.
    The Sun WAS actually uses the Tomcat server as its Servlet/JSP engine then adds EJBs on top.

    I have configure CRS2008 to using AD and Kerberos with Java application servers. Domain Controller is installed on W2K3 Server. In addition, CRS2008 is installed on another W2k3 Server.
    I have create service account in domain controller: CMSACC
    I have create two user account: CRuser1 and CRuser2
    I have create domain group: CRSGroup
    After I had run the setspn in domain controller,I got the message at below:

    Account Information Not Recognized: Active Directory Authentication failed to log you on. Please contact your system administrator to make sure you are a member of a valid mapped group and try again. If you are not a member of the default domain, enter your user name as UserNameatDNS_DomainName, and then try again.
    Actually, I am sucessful to logon Business View manager with CRuser1. However, I fail to logon CMC and infoview and got the above error. Have you any suggestion to solve this problem?
    Ken.

    if you can logon with client tools then that should be an indication that the service account running the CMS IS working! Good news.
    So the problem is likely with the java portion (krb5/bsclogin or java options)
    If the files are in c:\winnt\ (if not copy them there) and perform c:\program files\business objects\javasdk\bin\kinit username
    then enter and password/enter again
    Probably get the same message. To note in your krb5.ini all domain info must be in CAPS (the .com appears to be in lower case)
    kinit works with just the krb5.ini, java SDK and AD (removing BO config and the service account from the picture). Once that works if your java options are specified properly you should be able to login to CMC/infoview.
    also 1 last point. Add udp_preference_limit = 1 to the krb5 lib defaults section
    libdefaults
    default_realm = BD.com
    dns_lookup_kdc = true
    dns_lookup_realm = true
    udp_preference_limit = 1

  • Shared object and different application servers - how to resolve this issue

    Dear SDN Members,
    We are occuring a big problem. We create a shared object in a program and after we call in an another one. In central system architecture, it is working well. But on a distributed architecture (4 application servers), we have a dump some times. In fact, the read of the shared object can be occured in the AS 4 but the share object has been created in AS1.
    How to manage this problem to avoid this dump ?
    Dupplicate the shared object in the application servers ?
    Encapsulate different calls with RFC link to only one AS ?
    Any parameters on server or share objects ?
    Thanks a lot for your help,
    Points will be given to right or good answers.
    Br,
    Aurélien

    What is the dump you are getting ?
    AFAIK, "Shared Memory"(SHM) is an area defined in the app server. I am not sure if you can access SHM of a different app server (as in your case trying to access SHM of AS1 from AS4). [http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENSHARED_MEMORY_GLOSRY.htm]
    In this case you can opt for "DataBase Clusters". Relevant ABAP statements: [IMPORT|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPIMPORT_MEDIUM.htm#!ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_4@4@]/[EXPORT|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPEXPORT_DATA_CLUSTER_MEDIUM.htm#!ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_4@4@] FROM/TO DATABASE.
