Oracle ADF and Fusion Middleware

Today I browsed through some nice sessions on the Oracle ADF Framework.
I heard from the framework but not know what I can expect from the Framework and how it is related to SOA and Fusion Middleware.
The Framework is actually quite big and implements the Model-View-Controller architectural pattern which makes GUI development easier to develop and maintain.

Oracle sets it as "next generation" Web User Interfaces for
  • Fusion Applications
  • Middleware components like Enterprise Manager
  • WebCenter Spaces

The next picture shows an overview of the components of ADF.

So I asked myself how is this Framework to be positioned with Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle BPM Suite and Oracle Service Bus?
The next picture shows its place.


In my view within a SOA 5-layering architecture:

  • ADF can perfectly be used within the development of the presentation layer.
  • The OSB is generally used as an abstraction between all 5 layers. This means that all Services (Task Services, Entity Services and Utility Services) are exposed through OSB

But as I said, I am not an ADF expert, so ADF experts out there, how do you place ADF within your SOA Architecture?

OSB 10gR3 and SWA and MTOM

This blog is about using soap with attachments and the use of MTOM within the OSB (10gR3). A service is created that accepts a soap with attachment (DocumentService) and translates it to a service that accepts a binary element. MTOM is used for performance reasons for the second. Some notes: * For the use of attachments you need RPC-style document instead of the usual document-style. This due to the fact that the document-style limits a message to a single . * A service can not have both SWA and MTOM within OSB. First a WSDL is setup for the DocumentService: The $attachments variable holds the attachments and the body holds the attachment data. Also other data is stored within the attachment element (see h...

Cloud to Cloud Application Integration

A lot of applications have integration possibilities, so do cloud applications. The question I got from a customer is whether to have a point-to-point integration with Cloud applications or to go through their ESB solution. This blog describes some considerations. Context The customer has a HRM application in which job vacancies are managed. Furthermore that system also handles the full applicant process flow. They also have another cloud application that handles the job vacancies. This application posts the jobs to social sites and other channels to promote the vacancies. Furthermore this application has some intelligence for job seekers to advice some new vacancies based on previous visits or profiles. The job vacancies need to be sent to the Vacancies application and applicant information needs to be sent to the HRM application, when a job seeker actually applies for a job. Furthermore status information about the job application is als...
