Above and Beyond with the A-Team
Maybe it's the coffee… If you follow this blog you've probably noticed that I regularly feature posts from members of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Architecture team, otherwise known as the A-Team. One of those bloggers, someone identified only as "fip" who writes on the A-Team SOA blog, went above and beyond on Dec 4, publishing a total of four substantial technical posts in a single day, each one worth a look:
Retrieve Performance Data from SOA Infrastructure Database
Configure Oracle SOA JMSAdatper to Work with WLS JMS Topics
How to Achieve OC4J RMI Load Balancing
Using BPEL Performance Statistics to Diagnose Performance Bottlenecks
Web Service Example - Part 3: Asynchronous | The Oracle ADF Mobile Blog
Part 3 in this series from the Oracle ADF Mobile blog looks at "firing the web service asynchronously and then filling in the UI when it completes." Denis says, "This can be useful when you have data on the device in a local store and want to show that to the user while the application uses lazy loading from a web service to load more data."
ADF Mobile - Implementing Reusable Mobile Architecture | Andrejus Baranovskis
"Reusability was always a strong part of ADF," says Oracle ACE Director Andrejus Baranovskis. "The same high reusability level is supported now in ADF Mobile." The objective of this post is "to prove technically that [the] reusable architecture concept works for ADF Mobile."
Basic is Best | Eric Stephens "The world we live in and enterprises we strive to transform with enterprise architecture are complicated organisms, much like the human body," says Oracle Enterprise Architect Eric Stephens. "But sometimes a simple solution is the best approach...Whatever level of abstraction you are working at, less is more."
Selling Federal Enterprise Architecture | Ted McLaughlan
"EA must be 'sold' directly to the communities that matter from a coordinated, proactive messaging perspective that takes BOTH the Program-level value drivers AND the broader Agency mission and IT maturity context into consideration, " explains Ted McLaughlan. And that's true for any organization.
Avoiding the "I'm Spartacus" Scenario in SOA | Ben Wilcock
"This ‘SOA Spartacus’ scenario usually occurs quite soon after SOA is articulated as the primary strategic direction of the programme," says Ben Wilcock, "but before the organisation’s SOA capability is mature enough to understand what is meant by SOA, and how it should be designed and delivered." In such cases, perhaps the "A" in SOA is missing, no?
Thought for the Day
"It makes me feel guilty that anybody should have such a good time doing what they are supposed to do."
— Charles Eames (1907–1978)
