Oracle Lite vs. MobiLink DB synchronisation

Hi all
I have the task to analyse several synchronisation solutions on the
market. The analysis will play an important part in the decision for
which solution a quite big company will go for when building mobile
applications.
Up to know I manly focused on Oracle Lite and MobiLink.
I am sure that some of you guys did the same analysis. May you can give
me some good and important facts I have to take into consideration in
the analysis.
thx for any useful hints.
cheers,
Michel

Michel,
Having an Oracle enterprise database is an important first step. It'd be harder to choose Oracle Lite over MobiLink if you also had to be convinced to switch to Oracle in the backend.
A second important comparison IMO is the client database and application development tools (prior to analyzing the synchronization technologies themselves). Both products only support their own client databases (MobiLink and SQL Anywhere/UltraLite or OLite Mobile Server and client database). I'd start by evaluating the client database in each case to ensure it matches with your requirements. Items to consider are:
- Target platform support
- Datatype requirements
- Footprint requirements
- Logic requirements
- Driver support
- other items important to you
I think another important item to review before evaluating the synchronization process itself is the tools involved for building and deploying your application. If the site that will build and deploy the application is already familiar with many Oracle tools such as App Server, OC4J, etc. they may find Oracle Lite a much more familiar environment to work within, which could be a sufficient benefit in time to develop and deploy the application.
In comparing synchronization, I think you'll find both tools have the same basic features. You might consider a few of these items to compare the technologies:
1) Performance - this might be hard to measure without planning and developing a few test scripts. For a full sync, the upload, apply, download phases in MobiLink are synchronous; each one relying on the completion of the prior to move on in the synchronization process. Oracle Lite's methodology is asynchronous. Your client modifications are uploaded/downloaded from a queue, which in turn works to apply and compose changes from and into the Oracle. This means your client is not forced to wait for upload transactions to commit to Oracle before it can continue with downloading its changes. On a small scale (numbers of users, small amount of data, infrequent transactions to Oracle), the difference in this methodoloy will not display much in terms of performance impact. If you plan to scale up or out, or are working with a very busy Oracle database, you'll find Oracle Lite's methodology will scale better.
2) Remote administration: It's worth checking into the functionality each product provides to remotely administer the client database. Consider basic use case scenarios now and in the future that might require remote administration and compare the tools each provides to accomplish.
3) Integration with Oracle: Mapping the differences for Oracle specific features (sequences, etc) is often important.
4) Consider how the two products handle an interruption of a user synchronization, which can be especially important if you are synchronizing large sets of data.
5) Check how to manage conflicts and errors in each product and see how that works for your particular use cases. The nuances and application of this is different for each product.
This should help you get started. I'll post some additional thoughts if they come to me.

UTF8 support in Oracle Lite

I looks to me like Oracle Lite doesn't support the UTF8 character set for storing data. Is this correct?
I have an Oracle 8.1.7 database using UTF8 to store English, Thai, Chinese and Philippino data, and I want to synchronise that with Oracle Lite on Windows 2000 clients. The sync seems to work ok, but any non-english characters are lost in a characterset conversion (display as "?").
Regards
Steve

I'm a bit confused by your reply. Can Oracle Lite store data in a unicode characterset such as UTF8? It looks to me like the "UTF-8 support" is limited to the drivers, so that it can load and extract utf-8 data, but not store it. From section 2.2.1 of the release notes:
"Oracle Lite Database is NOT a NLS component. In order to reduce the kernel size, it is built for each language which supports native character sets for Windows. Which means, each language has each kernel. Here are the character sets supported by this release:
- Chinese: MS936 CodePage (Simplified Chinese GBK, ZHS)
- Taiwanese: MS950 CodePage (Traditional Chinese BIG5, ZHT)
- Japanese: MS932 CodePage (Japanese Shift-JIS, JA)
- Korean: MS949 CodePage (Korean, Ko)
The database kernel for each language in this list only supports its corresponding character set. Other multibyte character sets are not supported."
Also the documentation on the DBCharEncoding parameter you mention suggests that it only affects the UTF translation for java programs. Section A.2.3:
"... Specifies the UTF translation performed by Oracle Lite. If set to NATIVE, no UTF translation is performed. If set to UTF8, UTF translation is performed. If this parameter is not specified, the default is UTF8. This applies to Java programs only."
I've tried playing with these parameters, as well as changing the NLS_LANG parameter on the client, and for the mobile server, for the Oracle Lite home, all to no avail. I'm still losing the non-english data during synchronisation and it does look like it's being lost in a character set conversion rather than just being garbled, as each Thai characters is being replaced by the correct number of "?"s. As an example the Thai string "บริษัท บราเดอร์ คอมเมอร์เชี่ยล (ประเทศไทย) จำกัด" on the 8.1.7 database sever appears as "?????? ???????? ?????????????? (?????????) ?????" on the oracle lite database.
Am I missing something here? If I can get this data syncronising correctly then Oracle Lite looks like it will support all our requirments so any assistance would be greatly appreciated. (Should I post this to the globilization forum or does that focus only on Oracle's enterprise editions?)
BTW, thanks for the info on the sorting. Obviously the characterset issue is more a fundamental problem at this stage, but if we can fix this then it's good to know about the sorting abilities.

Conflicts resolution methods in Oracle Lite

Can anyone please provide the answers of the following questions?
1_What Methods are used for Conflict detection and resolution for concurrent updates by multiple clients in Oracle lite databases?
2_ Is there any method that extract semantic relation from the concurrent update transactions and create a global update schedule?
3_ Does oracle lite use conflict avoidance mechanism?
4_ What replication method is used by Oracle Lite Database?

In terms of conflict resolution with oracle lite, which end do you mean? conflict resolution in the client database (ie: oracle lite) or on the server side when processing client uploads (this is just a standard oracle database), also not sure what you are trying to achieve
*1_What Methods are used for Conflict detection and resolution for concurrent updates by multiple clients in Oracle lite databases?*
I assume in the following that you are talking about dealing with uploads
Depending on how the publication items are defined, the process is quite different.
a) fast refresh publication items
When the client synchronises, the upload data is uploaded as a packed binary file which is then unpacked and inserted into in queue tables in the mobileadmin repsitory (table names begin CFM$ followed by the publication item name). This is the only action that happens during the actual sync process.
A second and independent process, not linked to the actual synchronisation - the MGP process, runs on the mobile server, and this has three phases - apply, process logs and compose that run one after the other. You can set the MGP to only do the apply phase, or all three.
during the apply phase the data in the in queue tables for a particular user/transaction will be applied to the server database. Normally the MGP process is set to have three threads (this can be changed, but three is the default), and therefore three client uploads will be processed in parallel, but each of these threads is independant of the others and therefore should be seen as seperate transactions.
It should be noted that even if you have 50 or 100 users synchronising concurrently, only three upload sets will be processed at any one time, and almost certainly a period of time after the synchronisation has completed (may be many hours depending on the MGP cycle time)
As each of the apply threads is a seperate transaction, there is no concept of concurrency built in, and the only conflict resolution by default is based on the server wins/client wins setting of the publication item. where multiple users are updating the the same server record with 'client wins', the first user will update the data, and then the next user will update the data (just a repeat of the previous one). NOTE also that in the case of an update, ALL columns in the record are updated, there is no column level update.
There are customisation options available to provide finer grained control over the apply process, look at the PLSQL callback packages registered against each publication item for beforeapply, afterapply, beforetranapply and aftertranapply, Apply DML procedures against the publication items and also the CUSTOMIZE package at the MGP level
b) complete refresh publication items
where the publication as a whole has a mixture of fast and complete refresh publication items, these normally work in the same way as the fast refresh described above. Where however you just have complete refresh items the data MAY be written directly to the server table on upload
c) queue based publication items
These work in realtime, rather than with a delay for the MGP process to pick up the data.
When the user synchronises, the uploaded data is is written to the in queue tables in the same way, but when this is completed, a package (defined as part of the publication definition) is called, and the procedure upload_complete is run passing in the user and transaction identifiers. This package needs to be hand crafted, but you have full control over what and how all of the uploaded data is processed, but again this is a single transaction for that user. If you want to look at other sessions running, you need to find a way to implement this.
*2_ Is there any method that extract semantic relation from the concurrent update transactions and create a global update schedule?*
As noted above, the uploads may be processed in parallel, but they are seperate transactions, so no built ins
*3_ Does oracle lite use conflict avoidance mechanism?*
Only the basic oracle stuff, unless you use the customisation options to write your own
*4_ What replication method is used by Oracle Lite Database?*
The different types of publication items select data from the server database for download in different ways
a) fast refresh
change logging tables and triggers are created in the server database. These are scanned during the MGP process logs phase to determine what changes have happened since the last MGP compose, and what publication items they affect. The MGP compose then runs and this uses the same three threads to process the users in alphabetical order using the change keys to populate data in out queue tables (prefixed CMP$) in the repository. These have the PK values for the data, plus a transaction types (insert/update/delete). All the MGP process does is populate these out queue tables.
When the user synchronises, the data in the out queue tables is used as a key list to extract the data from the actual server tables into a packed binary file, and this is sent to the client.
b) complete refresh
there is no pre-preparation in this case, the data is streamed directly from the server database into the packed binary download file
c) queue based items
in real time when the user is synchronising after the apply has been done by the uploade_complete procedure, a second procedure download_init is called. Within this you have to code the data extract, and MUST populate tables (you also need to create them) CTM$<publication item name> these are effectively out queue tables, but contain all of the data, not just the PK values. At the end of the procedure, the data is streamed from these into the binary file for download.
Depending on the definition of your apublication, you could have one or more of the above types (VERY bad idea to mix queue based and fast refresh unless you are very sure about what you are doing) and therefore there may be a mix of different actions happening at different times
In conclusion i would say that try and send seperate data to clients so that they do not interfere with each other, and for inserts use uniqueue keys or sequences. If you MUST send the same data to different clients for update, then the queue based approach provides the best control, but as it is real time is not as scalable for large data sets.

Oracle LIte Conflict data table details Needed

Hai,
I have a new requirement from client that we have to send mail to user all conflict information between oracle lite and main database after synchronisation. We have taken publication and conclict table details from mobileadmin.C$EQ and wants to know which database table should be used for taking field wise details.
Regards, Palani.R.

What do you mean by conflict?
The publication items will by default have a conflict type of 'server wins' or 'client wins'. This comes into play where updates have happened on both the server and the client, and in these cases the rule will be followed, the data updated accordingly and nothing is stored.
If there is an ERROR in the upload processing, then the entire transaction will be put into the error queue (C$EQ), which sounds like what you are looking at.
C$EQ will have a record for each record in the upload transaction, but the first one to cause an error will have the message text as not null (there may be other errors behind this, but only the first one is updated).
If what you are trying to do is send an email when a transaction errors, then i would suggest you
select the user (clientid), transaction (tranid$$) and message_text (this is the actual error) from c$eq
to get the related table then
select pub.owner||'.'||pub.store
from c$all_publications pub
,c$eq eq
where pub.name=eq.publication
This is the schema and object name of the server table the data is going to. The actual error queue table is
select pub.owner||'.CEQ$'||pub.store
from c$all_publications pub
,c$eq eq
where pub.name=eq.publication
ie: object name prefixed by CEQ$ sitting in the main schema
If you want the actual column data, then just use all tab columns inside a bit of dynamic SQL

Oracle Lite Correct Application?

Hi,
I'm looking into Oracle Lite at the moment as a possible solution to automating and speeding up our data synchronisation from one main database to various sites across the country. The remote devices are 90% laptops (running XP) and the other 10% are Windows 2003 or XP based servers.
Currently we export from a main database and import individually and manually to the other sites. This is very slow process and costly and we would like to speed it up.
From what I can gather Oracle Lite looks like a viable solution. The asynchronous nature is satisfied as well as avoiding full exports and imports but rather updating ammendments and new data.
Do you think Oracle Lite best serves my purposes or should I look into other methods such as SQL Loader or something?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

Oracle Lite is great for replication. So if it replication you are looking for, this is the application you need. Just keep in mind some features such as PL/SQL PROCEDURES,TRIGGERS, and FUNCTIONS are not supported. You can use Java Stored Procedures though.

ORACLE Lite conduit for Palm

I had a lot of fun getting the Oracle Lite for handhelds install to work. Now I get the following error on hotsync:
Unable to initialize threads: ,en
Can't create Java VM
OK Oracle with 2 message(s)
Has anyone actually managed to get this to work? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanx
Vikas

I have the same problem. So I tried Java v1.2.2, but ORACLE conduit disapeared from Hotsync and during synchronisation nothing happend. Then I installed Java 1.1.8 again and "Can't create Java VM" appeared again!

Bfile functionality with oracle lite for Synchronization

Hi there,
In my project requirement, We need to design a standalone version of the applciation which will be used by the marketing people around the globe.
Plan is to use oracle Lite database with this application, as it synchronises with the main server on demand. During our testing we found that Oracle lite do the data transfer /synchronization perfectly but have problem with bfile type data. Precisely, the only problem we are facing is how to synchronize the file which are there on the server as bfile type. As per my info Bfile is not supported by the oracle Lite.
Any clue will be appreciated.

Junius,
Greetings,
Thanks for the reply speedy reply... I took more time in replying as we busy in evaluating the Oracle Lite version 10g.
Well Yeah! you are right and thru packaging, we can have the files downloaded but for me its a work around. Let em explain my situation again.
I have user specific set of files for each of its client which again gets updated quarterly. If I keep this data in the package I'll have to keep 'n' number of files in the package as about 300 odd user will be on field maintaining number of user. Another problem would be to publish and package every quarter. Thired problem would be of downloading this application as size will be too high and relevant data for each of the user would be hardly 10% of the size of the application for each user.
I hope I have clarified the situation. Pl. let me know if you need any more info.

Sunil Dua

Oracle Lite Capabilities

I have a few small questions around the capabilities of Oracle Lite within certain environments:
1) If i have multiple connection mediums ie . GPRS / Wireless LAN / Cradle etc - is there a way to dynamically choose which one to use - Can i set up a order of preference. If i'm in the office and the device is in the cradle it would be silly to use GRPS to sync for example. How can i setup Oracle Lite to use the cradle as default , fall back on the Wireless LAN and then GRPS if neither of the above are available.
2) Can i set a pocket PC device to automatically poll for a connection - check whether it can sync with the server. Not have the user initiate the sync. On Win32 you have the mobile client which you can configure - does that run on PocketPC ?
3) Memory cards - I would like to use the memory card as the default data store for my Oracle Lite install and database files. If the device loses it's primary configuration the database and binaries should be intact ? - how do i manage this ? Is there a way to address the memory card in the install parameter file to tell it to drop the binaries / data files there.
4) Once i sync recover the device - with the data / binaries intact - what would the result be on re-installing Oracle Lite from the Mobile Server? Would it overwrite my existing configuration ? or just update / sync ?
Your answers would be greatly appreciated.

from the below, i assume you are using a pocket PC client (PDA?) if so
1) nothing directly to do with Oracle lite. You need to look at the connections/internet connection default settings on the device itself. This should allow you to set the switch over as you require. lite only uses the active connection for synchronisation, it relies on the device to establish the connection itself
2) you would normally want the user to initiate, as you may have some problems with uncommitted data if the device is in use, and these would not be transferred. If you hit a complete refresh required situation it could cause data to be lost. We have an unattended facility in our application that uses a timer to count down to a timeslot defined in the database, it then uses the API to attempt a sync, and if this fails goes into a retry mode. You could try something similar, but make sure all data ia committed
3) you do not say what version you are on, but in 10g on a PDA, if there is a memory card present when it starts the sync, then it should use this by default (in fact you have to take it out for it to put the files in main memory). You can change this by looking at the settings in the odbc file in the orace directory - this has the database file locations. simplest solution is to remove all odb files and odbc and polite, put in the memory card and sync to re-create the databases
4) to re-install oracle lite keep a copy of the cab file on the memory card. run this to re-build oracle lite. I am not 100% sure, but it would be worth keeping a copy of the odbc file on the card, and copying this back to orace when recovering as well

Oracle Lite + Resin + jdk1.2.2 or jdk 1.3.1 problem

Hi!
Can some one help me this the following:
I used Oracle Lite database, Resin app server and jdk1.2.2
When I try to connect my database through simple java-application, all goes fine! But, when I trying to get database communication from my application server and problem arise. First of all dll's such as
OLJDBC40.DLL, OLAD2040.DLL, OLOBJ40.DLL, OLOD2040.DLL OLSQL40.DLL are in the Path and JVM loads them at runtime. I got connection to DB. Than I try to get some DatabaseMetaData info and got EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (for jdk1.3) and "java.exe has generated error (for jdk1.2.2)" errors from VM.
So, any idea?
Any help apriciated...
RGS,

Hi,
I have got the similar problem when I used MS SQL server + Tomcat + JDK1.3.0 via JdbcOdbc driver. In that configuration the JVM crashs very often. It seems that JdbcOdbc's got unstable problem. Then, I tried other type 4 JDBC driver, it works fine and JVM won't crash. Try Sprinta 2000 JDBC driver, it's a type 4 driver and fast stable.

Oracle Lite and Oracle 8i Client on Win98

Thanks.

HI Jeremy,
I think, Your PATH was cranked up.
The JDBC driver for OLite normally does not use any OCI DLLs, so that should not be the problem. As I said, the OLite dlls may be missing now from the PATH.
Any error messages? "Does not work" is a bit... fuzzy.

the PATH and CLASSPATH were set accordingly, as with JDK1.1.8, and there was no classes.zip in classpath
also the class file or the jar file looks weird or wrapped in the error message : 'FILES\ORA95_2\LITE\DESIGNER\oldes.jar;C:\PROGRAM'
Another interesting thing I noticed is if I run oldes.exe from Installation CD, the Oracle Lite Designer runs fine, and without error, I'm able to modify tables in the database of my laptop also.
Could someone shade some light on what am I doing wrong here ?
Thanks for help in advance .

(Since this is the general forum for the 'big' database, my advice would be to ask in the Oracle Lite forum. Database Mobile Server (inc. legacy Database Lite)
If this is a formal evaluation, you could also get a Sales-sponsored trial which usually comes with 30-90 days of Metalink support. You would be able to search for notes like Doc 414106.1
Bottom line is that the code is for JDK 1.5 and it's being deployed against JDK 1.4.2. Something needs to be either upgraded or downgraded.

Unable to install Oracle Lite 10g on Windows 7 64-bit

I've tried installing Oracle Lite 10g on my Windows 7 64-bit computer but I get a message saying "JDK is not installed on machine". I even have Java installed on my computer too.
Any ideas what could be causing the issue?
Thanks
Gareth

Oracle lite 10g is not supported on Windows 7. The core issue is you are running on an unsupported platform.
You have may have to go in the docs and figure out what JDKs were supported, i think 1.4 and 1.5. and try
installing one of those and maybe you can get uninstall to work. This is just a guess though.
thanks

The following procedure describes the steps required to deploy the DbAdapter.rar file using admin_client.jar:
1. Copy the following libraries from server.xml in an OC4J_SOA container to a server.xml file for a new
container:
oracle.bpel.common
apache.junit
oracle.db.lite
apache.commons
apache.jdom
apache.slide
For example, for oracle.bpel.common, copy the following extract from one server.xml to another and
do the same for all other libraries:
<shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common" version="10.1.3">

2. Restart the container to make sure that server.xml was updated correctly.
3. From the configtools.log file find the opmn port number, for example:
deployer:oc4j:opmn://dimak.au.oracle.com:6012/home
dimak.au.oracle.com - is the machine name and
6012 - port number
4. Launch a new command prompt
and set path and classpath, for example:
set PATH=$ORACLE_HOME\jdk\bin;%PATH%
set classpath=.
where in the classpath there is only one entry - the dot, which stands for the current directory.
5. change directory to the following:
$ORACLE_HOME\j2ee\home
and run the following command (written all on one line) to deploy the DbAdapter:
java -jar admin_client.jar deployer:oc4j:opmn://dimak.au.oracle.com:6012/test oc4jadmin
manager1 -deploy -file $ORACLE_HOME\integration\esb\lib\DBAdapter.rar -deploymentName
DbAdapter2 -parent default
where
* dimak.au.oracle.com should be substituted with your machine name
* 6012 should be substituted with your port which you found in step 3
* test is the name of the container you want to deploy the adapter to
* manager1 should be substituted with your oc4jadmin password
* $ORACLE_HOME\integration\esb\lib\DBAdapter.rar is the location of the DBAdapter.rar file
* deploymentName DbAdapter2 - should be different from DbAdapter, as that name is already used in the OC4J_SOA container.
