Use your common sense

Nowadays there are a lot of standard processes within healthcare, school and IT. That takes away our ability to think for ourselfs. I see that people use the processes as an excuse and do not think for themselves anymore. How can i help my customer for the best, or how can i teach this child for the best.

I have read the following book of Barry Schwartz: Practical Wisdom


I really liked the book and i can recommend it, because it gives inspiration to think about.
How can i help my customer for the best?
Is this the solution that will help my customer?
I understand that we need rules, standards and processes, but that does not mean that those are the holy grail.
That's why i like a more Agile approach than working out big plans, that may have changed before you even finished the plan. Sitting together with the customer thinking about the best solution at that time.

Very inspiring book !

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.

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

Book review: Data Management at Scale (Piethein Strengholt)

 This blog is a review of the book "Data Management at Scale (See also at bol.com ) Data Management is a hot topic nowadays and this book does a fantastic job at adding value to this topic. It is a must read and one of the few technical books I finished reading in a weekend. The book gives a fantastic overview on how to implement a Data Mesh data architecture. The Data Mesh concept is explained by Martin Fowler here . The book is a good mix between conceptual and implementation architecture level. It gives a lot of examples of how this architecture at scale can work, for both small and big companies. It is practical and I used it to implement it at one of my customers. The book describes an architecture in which the focus is on the DIAL (Data- and Integration Access Layer).  On a high level the book covers the following topics: The key principles for data management at scale - Domain-Driven Design  - Domain Data Stores - Meta data management Ready Data Store The concept of servin
