Let’s talk about SOA What is EDN? Business Events EDN with Oracle SOA Suite 11g Architectures Uses Cases Summary Questions

What is SOA? Service-oriented architecture is a technology architectural model for service-oriented solutions with distinct characteristics in support of realizing service-orientation and the strategic goals associated with service-oriented computing.

SOA is a way of organizing applications and processes in terms of services.

We Use SOA… EVERYDAY!

Why Move?

Business Reasons Agility Cost

IT Reasons Agility Cost Reduce Risk

What is EDN? Allows loose coupling between SCA components. Abstracted Framework Similar to JMS & AQ

Advantages Loose coupling – Domains Great GUI support for EDN Requires minimal coding

Event Delivery Network Infrastructure Two types of implementations: – EDN-DB (default) Oracle Database – EDN-JMS JMS back-end store Supports SCA, ADF, PL/SQL and Java Each instance of SOA runs EDN

Event Delivery Network Infrastructure Don’t treat as a Messaging Infrastructure!

What are Business Events? One-Way, Fire and Forget, Asynchronous Can be used in the following situations: – Dashboard data – Invoke another Business Process – Business Activity Monitoring

Business Events Event Definition Language (EDL) – XML Schema Global Name Payload Stored in MDS

Published to EDN Infrastructure Subscribed to by other service components Cannot be unpublished, always exist

Levels One and Only One Guaranteed Immediate

Connection Types Local Event Remote

Debugging Only available on EDN-DB SOA_INFRA schema Found at: – : /soa- infra/events/edn-db-log

SCA Example

ADF & Java Build events and publish via Java API Through Java class BusinessEventBuilder

PL/SQL Messages can be published from PL/SQL Using procedure EDN_PUBLISH_EVENT

Uses Cases Notification System – Send notifications to end-users – Types of Messages: Success Faults Information – Abstracted & Flexible Design

Composite Notification Message Message Utility Service Notification Service EDN

Why this design? – Easier development – Reusable services – Publish from multiple sources ADF application PL/SQL Java

Logging System – Control different logging levels – Published directly from SOA service components Captured in Oracle Database – Reporting purposes

Error Handling – Uses notification system for s – Common Error Event EDL – Used throughout all integrations

Testing Fusion Middleware Control Right-click soa-infra and select Business Events Downside: Need to enter your own xml message

What Not To Do Use Case – Used EDN to persist between service components – Guaranteed delivery – At every service call Problem: – SLA was dependent on completing processing in all subsystems – Taking over 15 minutes to process 1 message!!

Ultimately, bad design Tuning steps: – Organization was bringing in new database – Moved to EDN-JMS Improved, but still didn’t SLA’s

Tips & Tricks Create Business Events First! Group Business Events by Type In EDL file Store in MDS!!
