Oracle Service Bus 11g Development Cookbook

Overview of this book

Oracle Service Bus 11g is a scalable SOA integration platform that delivers an efficient, standards-based infrastructure for high-volume, mission critical SOA environments. It is designed to connect, mediate, and manage interactions between heterogeneous services, legacy applications, packaged solutions and multiple Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) instances across an enterprise-wide service network. Oracle Service Bus is a core component in the Oracle SOA Suite as a backbone for SOA messaging. This practical cookbook shows you how to develop service and message-oriented (integration) solutions on the Oracle Service Bus 11g. Packed with over 80 task-based and immediately reusable recipes, this book starts by showing you how to create a basic OSB service and work efficiently and effectively with OSB. The book then dives into topics such as messaging with JMS transport, using EJB and JEJB transport, HTTP transport and Poller transports, communicating with the database, communicating with SOA Suite and Reliable Message Processing amongst others. The last two chapters discuss how to achieve message and transport-level security on the OSB.

Using DB adapter to execute a custom SQL statement against the database


In this recipe, we will use an outbound DB adapter to execute a custom SQL statement against the database to reuse some database functionalities.

With that it's easy to call a function of the database to perform a certain value. We will use the ORA_HASH function to create a hash value for a given string, which we pass as a parameter to the DB adapter.

Getting ready

Make sure that the connection factory is set up in the database adapter configuration as shown in the Introduction section of this chapter.

You can import the OSB project containing the base setup for this recipe into Eclipse from \chapter-7\getting-ready\using-db-adapter-to-execute-custom-sql.

How to do it...

First we create the DB adapter, which will implement the query from the database. In JDeveloper, perform the following steps:

Open the file composite.xml of the project ExecuteCustomSQL.
