Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation

Overview of this book

Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural style created to address the challenges posed by today’s highly distributed, fast-paced computing. This goal is achieved by constructing business-focused software systems from loosely coupled, interoperable building blocks called Services. Organizations often fail to successfully implement SOA due to a lack of effective governance. Oracle SOA Governance is a comprehensive, service-orientated architecture governance solution that is designed to make the transition to SOA easier."Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation" illustrates how to successfully implement SOA governance in your organization. To achieve this, we describe how goals and objectives need to be clearly laid out and used to align governance processes with governance tools, governance tools with people, and people with the different roles and responsibilities that are required to implement effective governance."Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation" begins with a short but concise overview of SOA governance. We then go to explore real world examples, based on previous experiences and working solutions, in order to learn the concepts of Oracle SOA Governance Suite.We will also learn how to implement an OER-centric SDLC process to address your organizations design-time governance requirements. Next, we will explore OSR, and discover how to use it to expose service implementations to consumers based on UDDI concepts. We will explore the features available within Web Service Manager (WSM), Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM), and Business Transaction Manager (BTM). Finally, we discover how OER can be extended to govern Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA) implementations.Discover and learn how to use Oracle SOA Governance Suite to address your specific design-time and runtime governance challenges.

Preparing the browser


The first step that must be completed before logging into the OER console is to install Java Web Start 1.4.2 or greater. Java Web Start is needed in order to use the Asset Editor, Type Manager, Navigator, Browser Tree, and the Import/Export Utility.

Tip

Note that Java Web Start is included in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) as a part of Java SE 6 which can be downloaded from the URL http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/tech/index-jsp-136112.html.

It is possible that the JRE is already installed on your desktop. To find out if this is the case, open a command prompt and run the command:

java -version

If JRE is installed, the result should be similar to the following screenshot:

Once JRE is installed, you can enable Java Web Start by clicking on the Java icon available in the Windows Control Panel:

When the Java Control Panel window opens, go to the Advanced tab and ensure that all the relevant browsers are selected in the Default Java for browsers option, and...
