Sun idm adapter for Enterprise Service Bus (Using MQ)

Hi
Can you please let me know if any sun idm adapter support Enterprise Service Bus (Using MQ) ?
Thanks

As answer on question 1:
No I never found any documentation from SAP that described a ESB solution. So al the knowledge must come from other vendors in your case from Sonic.
But there is hope you can use XI in a ESB way. You must only (add) configure the ESB parts. This is done by adding a service repository for example the UDDI server in combination with some BPML engine.
By adding it al together you can execute your business processes over multiple system platforms using SOAP in a synchronic way.
This is the basic concept of a ESB.
The answer to question 2.
I dont know if XI has build in support, but a know that there are free tools that can handle Canonical XML. So you can make a service your self to handle the Canonical XML documents.

I also think that same way. I do not know what is so apecial about BEA Aqualogic ESB and other market matured ESB products such as TIBCO & SONIC. The samples which BEA has given in their evaluation guide are very simplistic. BEA should do more to provide extensive knowledge/features about their Aqualogic line of products.

How to call proxy service at enterprise service bus using flex

Hi
I have a proxy service located at wso2 enterprise service bus. How can i call that proxy service using flex?
Regards
Minal

Hi Minal, I think you can communicate with wso2 using mx:HTTPService or mx:WebService, you just need to find out which services you'll be consuming and then create the flex app to present and interact with those services.

FTP adapter for Oracle Service Bus - retrieve file by dynamic file name.

Hi
I am newbie in OSB. I try to use FTP transport in Workshop, it must fill in "Prefix" and "Suffix" for destination file name.
But for us, the file name is sent by external systems.
The workflow is:
1. External system call our proxy services.
2. Proxy service get file name from SOAP message.
3. Proxy Service get the file from FTP server.
4. The file send to Business services.
Any suggestions to implement about workflows?

Let me first put here what I understand about the flow:
External Sytem -->(filename)--> OSB HTTP PS --> (1) --> OSB FTP BS --> Read file based on filename
|--> (2) --> send file ontent to another system or return to the original system
If that is the flow, then I beileve ther is no straight forward way to implement it in OSB.
OSB FTP BS will only write a file to FTP Location.
If you create a JCA FTP Adapter for reading the file, then you can use it only to create a Proxy Service, and that proxy will not pick up the file when called from another service but only when a file is put on the source FTP location.
So, to implement the solution you will need to use Java Callout to a class which has code written to accept the file name as input, read the file from an FTP location and return the file content.
This is my understanding of how it is, may be there is another way to implement this or in fact may be the latest version of OSB 11.1.1.4 or 11.1.1.5 JCA adapter does support read operation within a flow instead of just at the start of the flow.

Which Nuget Package for Azure Service Bus can I use for Windows Store apps?

Hi,
I want to use the Azure Service Bus Topics. I have an app that needs to subscribe to the Service bus Topic. The Nuget-Package for Azure Service Bus is not applicable for Windows Store Apps (I get an error during install), thats why I used the Windows Azure
Service Bus managed for Windows Store. Unfortunatelly this API throws a Serialization Exception when I create a subscription. What can I do to use the Service bus in Windows store apps?
Thats how I try to create the subscription:
await Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Messaging.Subscription.CreateAsync(TOPIC_NAME, SUBSCRIPTION_NAME, CONNECTION_STRING);

Yes this is the one I used.
But creating a subscription with the code above throws the SerializationException mentioned in this question:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/de-DE/1acb887e-d5f1-4bfb-8eb9-f8ce7390ae7b/microsoftwindowsazuremessagingsubscriptioncreateasync-throws-an?forum=servbus&prof=required.
Maybe I do something wrong? Do I Need to do something before creating the subscription?
I haven't found any sample that shows how you can subscribe to a Topic and receive Messages using the restricted Api for winrt :(
Any suggestions?

SAP XI versus Sonic's Enterprise Service Bus

Hi,
Question 1:
In David Chappell's book 'Enterprise Service Bus', the Sonic ESB is described. He says that the ESB is more than a hub-and-spoke integration broker: ESB is a MOM and above that several 'generic' services, which handle the traffic and routing on the bus, for instance:
- Transformation service
- Content based routing service
- Orchestration service
- Splitter service
- Etc.
Is this concept adopted in ESA? If so how is this functionality implemented?
Question 2a: does XI uses xCBL as a XML-dialect?
Question 2b: does XI make use of the canonical-XML concept (by using xCBL) ?
Thanks in advance!

What is SAP ESB (Enterprise Service Bus)?

Hi fellow sdners gurus I have been reading threads about SAP SOA and ESB.
I do not want to start a debate on wether XI is an ESB, but more of a statement to what is SAP ESB (if XI it is, then be it).
1) What is SAP ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) today (I could not find a clear answer to is)?
2) Who uses this SAP ESB in production currently and what kind of environment (i.e. strictly SAP backend systems, or combination of various vendors backend systems)?
Can someone share some light on this topic?
As a reminder, an ESB is expected to exhibit the following characteristics (source Wikipedia):
     It is usually operating-system and programming-language agnostic; for example, it should enable interoperability between Java and .NET applications.
     It uses XML (eXtensible Markup Language) as the standard communication language.
     It supports web-services standards.
     It supports various MEPs (Message Exchange Patterns) (e.g., synchronous request/response, asynchronous request/response, send-and-forget, publish/subscribe).
     It includes adapters for supporting integration with legacy systems, possibly based on standards such as JCA
     It includes a standardized security model to authorize, authenticate and audit use of the ESB.
     To facilitate the transformation of data formats and values, it includes transformation services (often via XSLT or XQuery) between the format of the sending application and the receiving application.
     It includes validation against schemas for sending and receiving messages.
     It can uniformly apply business rules, enriching messages from other sources, the splitting and combining of multiple messages and the handling of exceptions.
     It can provide a unified abstraction across multiple layers
     It can route or transform messages conditionally, based on a non-centralized policy (i.e. no central rules-engine needs to be present).
     It is monitored for various SLA (Service Level Agreement) threshold message latencies and other SLA characteristics.
     It (often) facilitates "service classes," responding appropriately to higher and lower priority users.
     It supports queuing, holding messages if applications are temporarily unavailable.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Jean-Michel

Understand the technical base for Enterprise Services?

Hi all,
I am trying to understand what is the technical base for enterprise services and the restrictions when activating them. The best documents I have found are:
Note 1566412 u2013 Enhancement package 6 for SAP ERP 6.0.
Note 1359215 u2013 Technical prerequisites for using enterprise services
sdn blog u201CDetermin the SOA readiness of your System with the ES Workplace (Part 1 and 2)
EHP Master Guide - https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001183052011E
The documents are quite informative, however there are still questions. Maybe someone can shed some light of these:
1.) Is my understanding correct that Enterprise services can have three different base u201Cmodulesu201D?:
a. An EHP (with relation to a business function).
b. The swc u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D (without relation to a business function). E.G. ES Bundle "Bank Communication Management".
c. The SWC u201CSAP APPLu201D (without relation to a business function). E.G. u201CBusinessPartnerERPUpdateRequestConfirmation_Inu201D
2.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services (bundles) that rely on business functions after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
3.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services with base u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
4.) Is SWC u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D a u201Ctechnicalu201D business function, whose activation cannot be reverted either? If yes what effect has the activation von u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D on the current ERP customizing?
5.) How do the Enterprise Services relate with Service Interface definitions from SAP Process Integration (XI Content)?
Do I need the XI Content with the service interfaces in ES Repository (and SPROXY) only if the communication is B2B (with PI) or also if the communication is Point-2-Point (without PI)?
Thanks for your feedback!
Chris

Hi Chris,
I'll try and provide answers where I can...
1.) Is my understanding correct that Enterprise services can have three different base u201Cmodulesu201D?:
I personally don't agree with this understanding. Enterprise Services would always relate to some or other business function, unless we have a different understanding of what "Business Function" means . What changes is how the Enterprise Services (or versions of them) are delivered.
SAP APPL for example would be relevant to most of the enterprise services shipped with a standard ECC EHP*. So it will relate to the business functionality for the applications that are shipped with an ECC installation.
2.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services (bundles) that rely on business functions after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
I don't understand this question but I'll try and offer a generic answer. You can activate/use Enterprise Services whenever you want to as long as they are already available in your current installation. If they are only available in an EHP that you don't have yet then you will need to upgrade (but I also seem to recall some workarounds - SAP notes - as an alternative to upgrading).
3.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services with base u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
You decide when you would like to activate it, it's generally after. SAP will ship them anyway.
4.) Is SWC u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D a u201Ctechnicalu201D business function, whose activation cannot be reverted either? If yes what effect has the activation von u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D on the current ERP customizing?
There is a tool call Impact Analyzer, read up a little on it. It allows you to do an impact analysis before activating. It might also help posting a separate thread on of the ECC functional forums here on SCN for more impact analysis. I'm not sure if the activation can be reverted.
5.) How do the Enterprise Services relate with Service Interface definitions from SAP Process Integration (XI Content)?
The XI Content is the design equivalent of the Enterprise Services as you see them in SPROXY. It's only relevant in certain cases, examples:
- If you want to enhance standard SAP Enterprise Services
- If you want to do additional transformation/s & routing.
If you are planning P2P type communication, then the XI content is not relevant. One thing to be aware of though is if you have your backend ECC system connected to your PI ESR, the view that you get in SPROXY will reflect the SWC view of the ESR. So you might want to download the XI Content & import it into your PI ESR anyway.

Developement XI-Content for Enterprise Services

Hi,
What is XI-Content? And what must be defined in XI-Content for Enterprise Service Enabling?
We have defined some services as provider, these services are goint to be in XI-Content. But we are also requesting some infromation to business partner, these inforamtion could be services or messages in case our partner does not have services.
So my feeling is: in XI-Content we need to define:
Interfaces for the services which we provide;
Interfaces which we as consumer request?
Interfaces which from partner as provider?
Interfaces for the messages which are sending from partner?
Mapping between the service interfaces (provider <->consumer)
Mapping between the messages and the services?
I am sorry, but this is really confusing when we plan the development of XI-content.
Could you give me a clear picture or guideline according to your experience?
Thank you very much.
Jing

This XI content is nothing but most commonly used integration scenarios for address specific business process requirements for a particular landscape.For Ex:Interface for Creating PO ,Sales Order etc.
I have read many articles which say that XI Integration Repository will be re-named as Enterprise Service Repository which will enable the customers to kick-start with Enterprise Services.SAP sets the ball rolling by providing 500 Enterprise Services.
As far as I understand these services are nothing but commonly used re-usable integration scenarios which are powered by Webservices.Enterprise Service Granularity depends on how you define your "Service".
You have an awesome article on ESA which explains in an excellent way.
Search the sdn for Enterprise Service Design Guide which can be an answer all your questions.

Logical Destination/Service Group for Enterprise Services

Hi,
we have a Discovery System V3 and published the Services into the Services Registry of a seperate CE 7.1 installation. Now when I create a NetWeaver BPM process that calls an Enterprise Service from the discovery system I have to specify either a logical destination or a service group.
I know that they are used to configure Web Services (authentication, etc.), but do I have to use them for Enterprise Services delivered by SAP? I thought they are ready-to-run???
Thanks,
Manfred

Yes, we have to use either logical destination or service group. This complies with the new configuration approach of SAP ESOA which is described here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/40dabb46-dd66-2b10-1a9a-81aa620098b3.

Regarding Good book for Oracle Service Bus 11g

Hi All,
What is the good book for Oracle Service Bus 11g in the below list(or You can also specify any book other than from below list)?
1)Oracle Service Bus 11g Development Cookbook
2)Oracle Service bus in 21 days
3)The definitive guide to SOA:Oracle Service Bus,Second edition (or)first edition?
Can yOu help me out which is the good book for OSB?

Hi Deilby,
Thank You for your reply.
According to my understanding(I don't know whether it is correct or not),If you want to have full-fledged OSB development,we need to have eclipse.
If you just need to have routing and transformation along with SOA suite development,We can use OSB console .
Can You also look into this below SOA forums thread with SOA-OSB questions? If I have 'Oracle
Service Bus 11g Development Cookbook' , Can I answer all those questions?
https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2559964?tstart=0
My intention is clear,I want to have full-fledged OSB development information(important components) and that leads to have good exposure to face questions.
Can You help me out to clarify my understanding and recommend the book according to that?
Note: I already worked on SOA Suite.I worked on OSB console. I think whatever we can do with OSB eclipse development the samething we can do with OSB console along with SOA suite.
Can You clarify on this?

Create Oracle Service Bus using BEA workshop

Can someone please help with BEA Workshop developer guide/tutorial detailing how to create Oracle Service Bus using workshop IDE.
IDE - BEA Workshop 10gR3
OSB version - Oracle Service Bus 10gR3
Thank you

Thanks for your response Eric.
The tutorials that I've seen so far deal with OSB console, none of them talk about creating OSB using BEA-workshop.
On workshop IDE there is some help on OSB workshop plug-ins, but those are mostly one liners about the plug-in features
Please advice if you've link to OSB-Workshop tutorial.
Thanks

Workshop IDE for Oracle Service Bus

Hi,
I have installed Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.3) + Coherence - Package Installer (downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/wls_main.html). And I downloaded oepe from net for using it as IDE for Oracle service bus. But when i open the eclipse, i do not get any option for creating the oracle service project.
Is there any plugin i need to put in eclipse for this to show up ??
John

You need to download Oracle Service BUs from here : This installer contains only OSB components and is not bundled with WLS and I think includes the eclipse plugins for Service bus projects.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/osb/index.html
There is a pre-requisite to download and install weblogic 10.3.3 + coherence +OEPE separately.
