Material on 1Z1-451 (SOA Infrastructure Implementation) BETA certification

Hi,
I am starting to study for the certification Oracle Service Oriented Architecture Infrastructure Implementation Certified Expert (exam 1Z1-451), but I can't find any books on amazon, nor any material inside oracle sites (otn / opn (my company is an Oracle partner / education).
Can someone point out material to study for this certification ?
Thanks.

Thanks for answering bigdelboy.
I would like to make some more questions about the "beta" nature of the exam.
Which are the "bookable" dates of the exam ?
The easiest way to see this is to try it and find out!
goto Pearson VUE and go through the process of scheduling an exam at a convenient test center. go forward month by month until the exam runs out, then exit the booking process early.
Try it for another test center to confirm the exam ends at the same date.
Oracle can choose to extend this .... up until late January the exam was bookable until february 15th only .. then it was extended.
1z0-053 had extensions for over 6 months ... others have had far shorter extensions.
Typcially Oracle have been caught out in the past by announcing a date for bea testing which has had to be extended ..... sometimes by a serious amount of time .. wich is not really good.
Oracle will make these decisions based on reviews of exams taken so far.
Also, is it known when the production version will be released ?The production version will be released approximately 3 months after the end of the beta. ie there is a gap of about 3 months while the exam cannot be taken.
The price of beta is set low to encourage people to take it .... however if you take beta be prepared to accept these conditions or wait for the production exam.
Given my recent experiences of today i would also not recommend booking on the last day of beta as if your exam cannot be delivered for whatever reason (eg JCB digger man wants to electrocute himself on your test center's electricity supply) there will be no opportunity to reschedule regardless of whose 'fault' the failure to deliver was.

  • 1Z1-451 - Oracle SOA Foundation Practitioner

    Hi,
    I'm going to attend this exam in januari and Im wondering if any of you are also preparing for this one.
    Some questions I have so far :
    - is this exam a multiple choice exam;
    - where did you find your study material;
    - are there mock tests available.
    Regards,

    I'm answering these questions below on the basis of a recent beta (and other exams) I have taken.
    Some questions I have so far :
    - is this exam a multiple choice exam;Basically yes; however be prepared that not all questions will be a simple answer 1 from 4.
    - Some may require drag and drop
    - Some may require a specified number of answers from several, some may require you to specify which answers are correct without telling you which numbers are correct.
    - For some you will probably needed to view exhibits.
    As far as I am aware there are not FITB (Fill in the blank) type questions.
    As this is a beta exam you are asked to fill in comment on questions (eg if you felt there was an ambiguity ... typo). However you may also find it especially difficult to do this as you may find you may be pressed for time.
    - where did you find your study material;I have not taken this.
    If I were to have take it I would examine:
    [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1080544&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_451#1] ... recommended training and preparation.
    ths leading to the training course:
    [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getCourseDesc?dc=D53946GC10]
    Ideally do the training course.
    If I decided i didnt fancy the training course I would then seek oracle online manuals (or other books) to cover the topics on the training couse and the exam for which a gap analysis shows I was deficient.
    I believe there may also be a couple of books from Oracle Press / Apress that might help (but they won't focus on the exam) ... but I'll leave that for you to decide,
    - are there mock tests available.1z1 means this is a beta exam and it is unlikely there are authorised practice tests available. If you think you find mock tests they are almost certainly unauthorised learning material [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2009/05/the_route_you_choose.html]. For non beta exams Oracle usually gives a list of 10 sample questions linked from the exam page ... this is not the case while they are in beta.

  • Registering business event definitions in soa infrastructure

    Hi,
    What do I need to do to register events into the soa infrastructure so components can publish and subscribe to them?
    Everything I found was to create an empty composite, use the wizard to create new business event, add the event and save. But that does not register it in the soa infrastructure... when I go to Enterprise Manager | Business events --> there are not definitions....
    What else needs to happen?
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    Events are only shown when there are subscribers to that particular event. What you also may consider is placing the event definition in the MDS. In this case you can reuse the event by just pointing to the shared metadata and event definitions aren't fragemented over several composites.

    Hi,
    From my basis certification exam experience,  i learned that anyone shouldnt be thinking about examination assessment. But rather one should be concentrating on the objectives of each lesson. If you dont do handson part of each chapter exercise,  then you are in danger!
    You can test yourself, by checking whether you can explain each lesson objectives/goals in detailed or not.
    One more trick to get prepared well yourself well is to bringout opposite version of the sample questions after each chapter.
    This will help you building up confidence on the subject matter.
    I wish you will definitely qualify the certification.
    Cheers,

    NetFlow export is also supported on other Cisco switches when using a NetFlow Feature Card (NFFC) or NFFC II and the Route Switch Module (RSM), or Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC). However, check whether version 5 is supported, as most switches export version 7 by default.
    You can check the below steps to diagnose the issue::
     To verify that NetFlow is exported from a device to PI, follow the steps below:
    1)    Browse to Administration > Data Sources page. Check the value in column ‘Last Active Time’  for the ‘Device Data Sources’ table. If the table is empty or  the value does not represent recent time, then
    it is possible that the device is not exporting NetFlow or PI Assurance license is not applied / expired.
    2)    Login to PI console ( via SSH) as root user and run the command:
                    netstat –an | grep 9991 – Output of this should be like :  udp        0      0 :::9991         :::*
                    Check the firewall settings on PI server using the command: firewall -L
    1)    Check the configuration on an IOS / IOS –XE device. Run the commands
    a)    sh running-config | inc destination
    1)    This should list the IP address of the PI SERVER ( along with other outputs if any)
    b)    sh running-config | inc 9991
    1)    This should list at least one entry.
    c)    If the above are fine, then verify that the flow monitor, flow exporter and the flow records are correctly configured on the device.
    Refer to the URLs below to configure NetFlow export.

  • 1Z1-102 Weblogic 11g OCA - Beta Exam end date?

    Hello,
    I did this exam on September 14th, I choosed this date because according to this link (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=182#2) the beta exam was suposed to end on September 17th.
    But about 2 days ago I noticed that this exam was still "open" and I verified it at Pearson VUE site. I was hopping that my results will be ready by end of November or at starts of December, but knowing that the beta exam is still open that won't be happend soon.
    Do someone know when this beta exam is going to be closed so the production exam could start to be prepared?
    Thanks, Harim Márquez.

    Thanks, Harim Márquez.It's quite 'normal' for betas to be extended ... (if more tests are needed to validate the exam) ... though I suspect in the case the web site was not updated in synchronization. It will still take 12 weeks from beta close for production exam and for results to be published. I exam Certification Forum Moderator will answer this in due course.

  • Need help with Business One Implementation Consultant Certification

    Hello,
    I need help preparing for the B1 certification. I have taken the test once already and failed. I found it very tricky with multiple correct answers for each question.
    I have gone thru the eLearning several times now. And this week I am taking the instructor led training. I have also purchased and studied the Ebook. I have a good grasp of the product, but I feel that this is not enough to help prepare for the test.
    I want to know if there are any other resources I could use to help prepare for the test. Are there any practice exams
    Any and all help is appreciated
    Thank you!

    I found the e-learning good , but a bit limited, so I branched out to these & passed quite well :
    - documentation links on the 2007 landing page:

  • Better Certification Board recommendations (Request for comments)

    Now for something completely differerent:
    Jordan,  I appreciate what you tried to do with the Solutions for Review thread but... The latest exchanges (and a few others) on this thread I feel demonstrate why the "Mega-Thread" has already outlived its usefulness.  There a a lot of good tidbits and side discussions buried in this thread that would be much more searchable and cohesive if the posters started their own threads. 
    Perhaps some new board suggestions for effectivness could be floated in place of the "Sample Exam Solutions for Review"?
    Tips on CLD Solutions for review:
    Start a new thread - indicate there will be a CLD example for review in the subject line.
    For follow-up discussions on critique points start a new thread with a link to the example and a subject about the point under discussion.
    This should allow the frequent fliers on this board the chance to develop a useful body of theads where specific points related to Cert specific preparation and concepts can be gathered and easily cross linked by the heavy hitters (And who knows, easilly searched by the certification candidates)
    As the board grows I would hate to lose some "gems" in the noise.  If we get together now, to think about what this boards goals are we can maximize our return on investment in supporting certification.
    All comments welcome.  Jordan, please consider floating this discussion for maximum visibility.
    Jeff

    I think that's a great idea - centralise the submissions and decentralise the critiques.
    Another idea to improve the Certification Board might be to introduce subforums for each of the various types of certification (CLAD, CLD, CLA, etc.).

  • The Requirements to Apply for (P6 EPPM Certified Implementation Specialist) Certification

    Dear All,
    I am a project management professional using Primavera P6 extensively during my work, and need to prove and demonstrate my experience in Primavera through Oracle certification
    I would like to ask
    1) If I can apply for the certification individually not through Oracle partner, because I am not working now at Oracle Partner, but I plan to join one after gaining the certification.
    2) And if I gain the certification now, can the Oracle partner company I plan to join later get benefit from my certification, ore the certification stay at individual level.
    Thank you very much for your assistance
    Abdullah salah

    Abdullah,
    You can follow the certification path as an individual. It is not required that you work for an Oracle Partner. Once you get a job with an Oracle Partner, they can certainly benefit from your certification. You will update your Pearson VUE web account with the partner's company name and partner ID, which you will get from the partner upon becoming employed.
