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.

BPM 11g


Integration with custom processes developed using the Unified BPM Suite 11g is supported from Version PS7 (11.1.1.7) and above of OER. However, the implementation OBPM 10g is still required if it is desired to leverage the out-of-the-box OER automated workflows.

It is possible (and likely) that at a later stage (perhaps an individual patch or new patch set), Oracle will migrate these workflows to the Unified BPM Suite 11g at a later release, however, from a functional and conceptual perspective, the content described throughout the chapter should still be applicable.

Note

Please note that Oracle provides restricted licensing terms when implementing custom BPM 11g. For further information, please refer to http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e14860/products.htm#CDEHFEFG.

The general recommendation is to build a custom process with the Unified BPM Suite 11g rather than adding complex customizations to an out-of-the-box automated workflow.

What this means in practice is that creating...
