SOA Consortium: Enterprise Architecture 2010 Webcast

One of the working groups in the SOA Consortiums community of practice is the EA2010 group. This group of seasoned enterprise architects from industry, government, systems integrators and vendors, has been actively discussing and defining the next generation role of enterprise architecture. Specifically, what enterprise architecture looks like organization, practices and people in a business-driven, service-oriented world.

Establishing BPM, SOA and Enterprise Architecture and 'Governance'

Good day all,
(Originally posted on LinkedIn Oracle BPM group)
(This post can also apply to those implementing SOA and/or Enterprise Architecture)
After reviewing Oracle's IT Strategies from Oracle (ITSO) reference library (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/entarch/itso-165161.html) there does not seem to be anything specifically created (yet) targeting a BPM Governance Framework.
It is mentioned in a document in the above mentioned library, titled "Business Process Engineering", document ID E20216-03, file name of, oracle-pg-bpm-bus-proc-eng-r3-0-292099, page 5-2, 3rd paragraph, and I quote, " (see A Framework for BPM Governance for more information). Yet there is no link or section to or for said reference nor anything else within that document. Disappointing.
The closest and so far best approach I feel is a PDF file titled, ONE 2010-ART-BPM Governance Framework-VKhusidman-v51, authored by Vitaly Khusidman, titled "BPM Governance Framework", BPTrends ▪ July 2010
In this above document Dr. Khusidman recommends utilizing TOGAF as a framework for establishing the BPM Governance Framework. This also seems like a sound approach for those addressing the Enterprise Architecture (and governance which is a part of that larger 'whole') as well as SOA and BPM, especially those moving to a combination of SOA and BPM.
What are the thoughts and approaches being used by others, who may also be using some of Oracle's products and tools, and tasked with addressing the whole enterprise and/or SOA-BPM combined?
Cheers

Or that phase of product life cycle..
It seems as if academics are taking an increasing interests in SDN for gathering data. Possibly a knock-on of the University Alliances.
IMO this one is legitimate.

Guidance for Enterprise Architecture

Hi All,
I have an experience of ABAP and fucntional in SAP. I would like to shift to career in Enterprise architecture. Could Please anyone guide me to start in SOA.
Thanks In Advacne,
Kiran V.

Hi Kiran,
If you want a career change to Enterprise Architecture, why do you think that SOA is a good starting point? You definitely need to understand SOA because it 'can' be (not necessarily) a cog in the wheel or an enabler of an organisation's Enterprise Architecture.
Surely you would want to start by learning and applying a specific (or several) Enterprise Architecture Framework/s like TOGAF for example?
Get an overview of what SOA is by reading an e-book 'SOA for dummies', it's a free IBM publication as far as I can remember, Google it & download it. Once you have a high level understanding of SOA then rather start with an Enterprise Architecture Framework. You can follow the [Togaf Learning Series|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/weblogs/topic/38] of blogs by Gourav Khare as a start.
Another excellent guide is the [SOA Source Book from the Open Group|http://www.opengroup.org/projects/soa-book/]

Enterprise Architecture Framework (ESA Adoption Program)

I have read that SAP has its own Enterprise Architecture Framework which is used by their own consulting Division. I have read this will be moved to the public domain in the first quarter 2007 to complement ESA. Does anyone know when this will be available and how it can be accessed.
Will this be linked to the ESA Adoption Program and will there be accelerators available.

Hello,
I see some kind of feedback loop between system's ESA Adoption Program (ESOA Roadmap) and SAP EA Framework in this way that :
1. ESA Adoption Program (process) reflects common business/organisational and IT strategy and defines SOA projects in which Solution Architecture and Enterprise Architecture must be build or rebuild.
In consequence SAP EA Framework is used.
2. Plan Phase of SAP EA Framework Architecture Development Cycle (ADC) with defined gaps between "to-be" and "as-is" affects Define and Evaluate Phase of ESA Adoption Program by defining details, corrections and new possibilities around services in existing Program.
Additionally if we have new Building Blocks (eg new components to reuse) SAP EA Framework Repository is changed.
3. In effect next "New Solution" project is conducted by updated ESA Adoption Program and uses updated SAP EA Framework,

Enterprise architecture?

Refer to the following link:
http://downloads.hemtech.co.za/jdo/manual/architecture.html
Figure 12.2 describes an enterprise architecture where actual business
objects are manifested on the client, yet all persisted via a common cache
on an application server. I am very interested in this sort of
architecture and I am wondering if such a thing can be constructed through
Kodo. Any information would be appreciated.

A new Enterprise Architecture online user group- and the first one as such- has come to life.
The aim of our new user group would be the promotion of collaboration between enterprise architects around the world in order to help them do their work more easily and professionally by capitulating on shared experience and knowledge while creating an EA culture.
The group activities and services will consist of:
The EA Hot Line: a consulting service provided through free voice over IP tools (namely Skype) for acute issues and problems, delivered by and to our group members.
A web cast once a month dealing with one of the many EA topics.
Architecture Patterns DB: a database containing architecture patterns and a wiki to collaborate on them.
Discussion forums dealing with EA issues.
Wikis to create shared knowledge on requested topics.
Providing a stage for articles on EA topics of all levels.
You are all welcome to pay us a visit and join our user group at http://www.theeagroup.net/ea/Default.aspx
Looking forward to see you,
The EA Group

Hi Mike,
I just saw your post. Sorry for the confusing behavior. This is not something that we've seen occur or had reported in the past - very strange.
My initial thought is that it may have something to do with the "Reply by email" functionality of discussions on Community Groups and the format of you title "Reminder: <original title>" However, I see that you also made some changes to the title beyond adding "Reminder:", so I'm not sure that theory holds up.
Either way, we'll need to dig into this a bit further to figure out the source of the issue and correct it moving forwards. Thanks for reporting this and please let me know if you see unusual behavior along these lines again.
Thanks!

SOA 12C Enterprise Deployment - Clustered

We are currently implementing 12c with OSB(Oracle Service Bus), OTD (Oracle Traffic Director) and SOA
AS you can imagine the build has a number of SOA composites.
IN our Test and Production environments, we have 2 nodes per cluster, and we have separate OSB and SOA clusters. We also make use of MDS
Now to set the scene, a number of our SOA composites call other down stream composites.
As an example a payment composite may call a create customer composite as part of its process.
The way we have configured this all is the SOA Composites point to MDS, and the WSDL (Endpoint URL) contains the URL for the second service.
We currently have a situation where if a service is called on Node1, it will always call the downstream services on Node1 due to the fact that the MDS wsdl has the NODE1 endpoint Url Hard coded.
Obviously this does not make sense in a clustered environment, as such i am seeking assistance from the community on what the best practice is in this situation.
Our current thoughts are
     1) Have the MDS wsdls point at a load balacer (potentially OTD or some other LBR) which will then distribute the traffic down stream
     2) Have the SOA composites point at an OSB proxy, which does load balancing to the downstream SOA composites
     3) Somehow configure the MDS wsdls to have the end points generate dynamically at run time (hopefully this will then automatigically distribute the load)
Any advice is welcome

I think what you're looking for is "callback url"(in enterprise manager) and "frontend host/port" (in weblogic console -> cluster -> http tab).
hope it helps

FMW B2B and SOA: sync response architecture

Hi All,
I am facing some challenges on the B2B and SOA communication.
The architecture (inbound) that we are following is B2B send a message on the JMS queue to AIAB2BInterface which in turn forwards the message to the concerned BPEL process.
The issue is with developing synchronous functional acknowledgements to trading partners in a way that it not just says "B2B received this message" but also means that "this message has been successfully processed by the backend system"(so all the BPEL processes were successful). Though B2B would have received the message successfully but the associated BPEL processes might have failed.
So when I indicate success from B2B in the synchronous functional acknowledgement I want to indicate success in the backend systems also.
Currently we are implementing async functional acknowledgement to indicate success through the backend system for which the implementation is simple; we just have the BPEL process send a message back to B2B via AIAB2BInterface upon completion.
The only solution that I have come across is use of callouts which invokes a SOA sync BPEL composite as a web service and having the sync BPEL process return an acknowledgement back to B2B upon completion/error. But this way I am not using any of the existing JMS queues and the AIAB2BInterface. This is sort of rebuilding the B2B/SOA integration architecture that is being used.
Do we have any ideas/insights on how to implement synchronous functional acknowledgement while supporting the architecture( B2B-> AIAB2BInterface -> BPEL processes) that we are using for the B2B/SOA integrations?
Thanks in advance!

Duet Enterprise Architecture

Hi Experts,
This might be a possibly silly question however I have done some studies and research but I'm getting quite confused on the architecture of Duet Enterprise, so my main question would be do we need a server for Duet? Or is it Duet is installed in SAP Netweaver Gateway and that is known as Duet Server?
Regards,
Jordi

Hi Jordi,
No, you do not need an extra server for Duet Enterprise. You install Duet Enterprise into the same system as the SAP NetWeaver Gateway system.
Simply put: Duet Enterprise server = Gateway server.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Alex

Error in soa 11g enterprise manager console

I am getting this error, enterprise manager was working fine before,
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address

r u able to login to the weblogic console??
if yes please check the listen address and port?/
and check in the deployments in the EM is in started mode or prepared mode.
rebounce the server it should be solved

Enterprise architecture design

What are the factors to weigh when designing an enterprise deployment for Oracle into to multiple business units (stand alone hospitals) that are all under the same corporate umbrella?

The most important thing is to have only 1 Enterprise Manager repository
so that you have a single view of all installations for the whole corporate.
Use commondity servers, Linux and Intel, with 2 cpus each and 8 GB of RAM.
Have at least 3 or 4 management servers (OMS) all connected to a hardware
load balancer like Big IP. Have a failover Big IP as well since that is the
most important thing.
For the database, you can have it on a single node, or using a standby
and Oracle Dataguard technology, or you can have a RAC. But the most
important aspect are the management servers.
Using such a configuration, you can manage more than a 1000 targets in
Grid Control.
In your case, I would suggest putting the database server in 1 central location,
this is quite important so you have a central view.

Porus.

**ACS enterprise architecture**

Is it possible to use a combination of full version ACS appliances configured as primary at a HQ site, with remote branch offices configured as secondary servers that are running on ACS express appliances?? OR are there limitations on the ACS express appliances that would prevent this type of setup.
Thanks

ACS Express and ACS not-express are totally different products. They cannot be in the same distributed deployment (i.e. replication partners) since they don't support the same stuff and don't work the same way.
This said, you can use Express at the branch office and not-express on central site ... Just don't expect replication :-)

Enterprise Architecture Question

Hello.
I was tasked with creating user interface that allows for management of customers in the central database. The task is self-explanatory, but the tables in the database are numerous and connected in multiple levels of relationships. Majority of tasks necessary already have stored procedures associated with them in the DB. My question is: Do I proceed with this project using the new Persistence API with EJB 3, or should I just stick with the standard JDBC/embedded SQL calls? This project is a "short-term" throw-away solution which has to be built rather quickly. Any suggestions and recommendations would be welcome.
Thanks.

Hi,
stored procedures cannot be handled using JPA (in the next JPA generation there should be some kind of support). So you can use hibernate (using native queries) - but it's not very good way as well - try to check spring framework (JDBC templates etc) how it deals with this - otherwise use normal DAO / DTO patterns and pure JDBC.
regards
Y
