• Let’s talk about SOA
• What is EDN?
• Business Events
• EDN with Oracle SOA Suite 11g
• Architectures
• Uses Cases
• Summary
• Questions
What is SOA?
Service-oriented architecture is a technology architectural model for service-oriented solutions with distinct characteristics in support of realizing service-orientation and the strategic goals associated with service-oriented computing.
SOA is a way of organizing applications and processes in terms of services.
We Use SOA… EVERYDAY!
Why Move?
Business Reasons
• Agility
• Cost
IT Reasons
• Agility
• Cost
• Reduce Risk
What is EDN?
• Allows loose coupling between SCA components.
• Abstracted Framework
• Similar to JMS & AQ
Advantages
• Loose coupling– Domains
• Great GUI support for EDN
• Requires minimal coding
Event Delivery Network Infrastructure
• Two types of implementations:– EDN-DB (default)
• Oracle Database
– EDN-JMS• JMS back-end store
• Supports SCA, ADF, PL/SQL and Java
• Each instance of SOA runs EDN
Event Delivery Network Infrastructure
Don’t treat as a Messaging Infrastructure!
What are Business Events?
• One-Way, Fire and Forget, Asynchronous
• Can be used in the following situations:– Dashboard data– Invoke another Business Process– Business Activity Monitoring
Business Events
• Event Definition Language (EDL)– XML Schema
• Global Name• Payload
• Stored in MDS
• Published to EDN Infrastructure
• Subscribed to by other service components
• Cannot be unpublished, always exist
Levels
• One and Only One
• Guaranteed
• Immediate
Connection Types
• Local Event
• Remote
Debugging
• Only available on EDN-DB
• SOA_INFRA schema
• Found at:– http://<host_name>:<port_number>/soa-infra/
events/edn-db-log
SCA Example
ADF & Java
• Build events and publish via Java API
• Through Java class BusinessEventBuilder
PL/SQL
• Messages can be published from PL/SQL
• Using procedure EDN_PUBLISH_EVENT
Uses Cases
• Notification System– Send notifications to end-users– Types of Messages:
• Success• Faults• Information
– Abstracted & Flexible Design
Composite
NotificationMessage
Message Utility
Service
Notification Service
EDN
• Why this design?– Easier development– Reusable services– Publish from multiple sources
• ADF application• PL/SQL• Java
• Logging System– Control different logging levels– Published directly from SOA service components
• Captured in Oracle Database– Reporting purposes
• Error Handling– Uses notification system for emails– Common Error Event EDL– Used throughout all integrations
Testing
• Fusion Middleware Control
• Right-click soa-infra and select Business Events
• Downside: Need to enter your own xml message
What Not To Do
• Use Case– Used EDN to persist between service components– Guaranteed delivery– At every service call
• Problem:– SLA was dependent on completing processing in
all subsystems– Taking over 15 minutes to process 1 message!!
• Ultimately, bad design
• Tuning steps:– Organization was bringing in new database– Moved to EDN-JMS
• Improved, but still didn’t SLA’s
Tips & Tricks
• Create Business Events First!
• Group Business Events by Type In EDL file
• Store in MDS!!
