Oracle / Arbortext / TIBCO solution for XML content management

A new technical white paper has been published which describes how Oracle Internet File System, Arbortext Epic and TIBCO's Extensibility XML Authority have been integrated to provide an complete environment for designing, authoring, managing, publishing and exchanging information with XML.

I agree workflow is not SOA (Service Orientated Architecture). Oracle's strategic direction is BPEL / BPM, and Oracle workflow is moving to end of life.
BPEL is part of SOA Suite but you do have the option to buy standalone, it does have a prerequisite of weblogic suite though.
Although Oracle markets the product SOA Suite it does not mean you you have to develop a SOA architecture, you can still develop point to point interfaces as you do in workflow. SOA Suite just enables you get more reuse out of your existing systems, and future developments. If you want you can keep you workflow develop as it and integrate BPEL / SOA Suite with it.
Im sure you are very skilled in workflow but these skills are becomming very hard to find. They require strong PL/SQL skills and typically don't work with any other application or database without doing some customization. The fact that there is limited documentation shows that it is going to be difficult to upskill developers.
For the functionality Oracle provides in its BPM and SOA Suite I would say it is cheap, especially against our competitors. Also the more you buy the cheaper it gets.

  • Most Important Conference for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) marketplace in India

    Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is no longer just about
    technology, or just about content. It is about content, community,
    and context. The deluge of data and information, coupled with the
    ever-increasing need for compliance is forcing enterprises to take
    a strategic look at ECM and its associated disciplines. To stack up
    to competition, enterprises are looking up to faster, flexible, and
    efficient business processes that can channelise copious,
    unstructured information into meaningfully optimised, governed, and
    digitally delivered data that is available to the right
    stakeholders at the right time.
    C-level executives, senior IT process management personnel,
    marketing and content managers are looking to find the precise
    solution that will fit the needs of their organization. What are
    these available solutions, and how do they stack up to the needs of
    a specific enterprise? What roles do strategic topics such as
    Governance, Collaboration, Enterprise 2.0 play in the evaluation of
    these solutions? What is a promising approach, and how do I find

  • Best way to architect a solution for XML.

    Hi All,
    I am attempting to ascertain the best method to deal with this scenario:
    A third party piece of software produces an xml which contains a product list.
    I want to take this xml strip out some unrequired strings and then compare the differences between the current live product list - which is a web based product list stored in an oracle database and the incoming xml.
    I then want to take the delta, i.e. the change since product list was last loaded and generate xml for the new/changed product - to load into another database.
    My initial thoughts were to load the xml into a staging table in the database - do a compare with a master table and then generate the delta xml.
    Does this sound like a good idea or am I missing a trick?
    If this is a reasonable sounding method can anyone point me in the direction of an example piece of code for loading the xml file into the database?

    Possibly (for a good generic answer)
    Here are some things to read to help you along with that decision and to find examples.

  • Component for XML content visualization providing content format

    Hi,
    I have a XML content which is just coming to my WD application as string - no tabs, no empty spaces - it is just one long string token.
    Is there any WD component which can provide the format of this xml content string (similar for example to the built in viewer within Web Dynpro explorer), or I have to parse it on my own and visualize it within a text view for example?

    Hi Maksim,
    I tried in this way, but I am working with NY version of WD and there is no IFrame UI component, what component to use to visualize this URL content?
    I tried FormattedTextEdit, which bind to the url string and got an exception

  • LiveCycle ES Connector for IBM Content Manager connection problem

    I've recently installed Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.2.1 and we're trying to get the Connector for IBM CM working. First off here's what software levels we're using:
    LiveCycle ES 8.2.1
    WebSphere Network Deployment 6.1.0.21
    IBM HTTP Server 6.1.0.21
    IBM DB2 UDB 9.1(FP 6a)
    IBM Content Manager 8.4
    IBM Information Integrator for Content 8.4
    Java JRE 1.5(SR 8a)
    Our application(s) connect to our databases remotely. The DBs reside on our z/OS(which is at level 8.1)
    When I try and enter in the database/datastore info in the Connector fields under services I get this error in LiveCycle
    Failed to save settings.
    Error: Not able to validate the connection with the IBM CM. Either credentials or database is wrong.For more information see the exception stack trace.
    and I see the following in the SystemOut.log

    Nick,
    I am getting the exact same error. I have tried installing Adobe Livecycle 8 on two separate machines and they both give the same problem. In viewing at the logs, it seems that the IBM CM jar files are not being recognized by the Adobe installation. For me, I get the following logs as well in addition to what you see.

    The DKDDO class is in the jar files that are inside II4C installation folder. I think that the file "adobe-component-ext.properties" that they ask us to create to reference the IBM CM jars is not being picked up by the Adobe Connectors for IBM CM. Do you see the " java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError" in your logs? Any resolutions you had regarding this.
    I even tried to copy the ibm jars to various paths and copied the props files ad various different locations. I am under the impression that the documentation may not have been updated for this change.

  • Does oracle have a solution for what i need?

    Can anyone help because i am confused about Oracles offerings!
    In my organisation where use Staffware v9 (now TIBCO, and not the iprocess engine) as the workflow backbone. Relatively simple process maps with background steps calling SQL code to perfom updates and return case data variable settings and foreground steps mapping to oracle forms. v9 is client server with limited API set so uses DDL calls with parameter passing and timers to communicate, but used the better API interfaces in the past. Currently on Oracle 10g at the moment, plans to go to 11g, but not holding my breath on this as we would need some infrastructure changes.
    The client server nature of the TIBCO product and the fact that it uses flat files for transactional processing means that it is no longer suitable for our needs, and i want to replace it with an alternative. As we are an oracle shop, a suitable oracle product would be ideal, but unlike the (admittedly sparse) documentation on the old oracle workflow, the new stuff confuses the hell out of me as it seems so wrapped up with SOA concepts (something we are NOT interested in at the moment) and with the addition of some what conflicting BPM and BAM tools as well, there also seems no clear direction. TIBCO also want a lot of money to go to the new product
    What i need is a tool to do the following
    1) define users, access levels, group work queues with membership and supervisors
    2) graphical process designer that can define PL/SQL interface steps, make available foreground tasks in the appropriate queues with APIs to access from the forms environment
    3) workflow process management objects like
    - decision based process routing on rule or data values
    - sub procedure definitions
    - external event APIs to control flow and update case data
    - branching, joining and wait joins
    - rules engines and dynamic process definition nice to have, but not critical
    4) operational API for case starting, event issue, audit trail access etc.
    5) APIs and repository held in the database
    6) externally accessible database structure (ie: makes sense in sql) for reporting/management
    I have worked with workflow systems for way too many years (years ago i was even on the Staffware advisory panel) so well up on how these systems work, and think that all of the above is pretty basic stuff, but (maybe just getting old) i cannot see how oracle are meeting what i see as the basics
    any ideas?

    Now let me tell you that my code is running very much fine for non-library services enabled repository ,i am able to get the content in that repository, but as you know you will not get any version history, which is very much important to me....
    now as it is working there i think that there should not be any problem with the code ,but problem may be there when i use library services enabled repository....
    i think there is some problem with the weblogic content repository...when it is enabled for library services...

    Thanks

    Hi there,
    I have a form which has over 150 fields (from 4 tables). I have used a tab-canvas form to handle all the input - 2 screens for the fields from the first table and 1 screen each for the remaining 3 tables. I can navigate between the tabs without trouble. When everything is done, the contents of the screens are saved to the database via a menu item. Most of the fields are database items.
    My point is that Oracle Form has no problems in handling
    such processing and I am only using its normal default capabilities.
    What type of canvas are you using? There should be no reason to use buttons to navigate betweeen screens if you are using a tab-canvas form. You should not have to use PL/SQL table to handle the data if the fields are normal database columns.
    Regards,
    John

  • What is the best solution for xml parsing?

    Hi. I've got a huge problem with the XML xtra. When I was
    running my application the memory usage started to grow up
    and up...I've only parse the XML once on the beggining, so I
    thought that maybe it was a problem with the garbage
    colector, etc...after a loooong time, I've realized that
    every time that I access some node to get some information, the
    movie uses more and more memory. I've read in the groups that
    the XML xtra is known for memory leaks issues, so I've
    did what they suggested and changed to the dom-lingo cast
    (the one from shocknet)...The problem is that now when I'm
    parsing the XML it takes like 50 seconds (with the XML xtra
    it was like 2 secs) something that I think it would be too slow
    for the end-user... I don't know if there's a faster (and
    free) alternative...
    I'm using Director MX and my XML file it's about 550 kb
    Thanks.

    It's reported tht the main memory leak has been fixed as of
    10.1, a more
    mino r node reference related leak can be worked around
