Good news – the Retire Phase is actually more fun than the Manage Phase. During the Retire Phase our content management team should not have to track down content creators if the Request Phase of this process was completed successfully.

There have been some interesting discussions recently about the relationship between Cloud management and SOA management/governance (run-time and design-time). My only regret is that they are a bit too focused on determining winners and loosers rather than defining what victory looks like (a bit like arguing whether the smartphone is the triumph of the phone [...]

To promote visibility of SOA artifacts i.e. Foundation Pack (FP) and Process Integration Pack (PIP) artifacts, AIA provides BSR (OER in FP 3.0). BSR allows you to search for services and other artifacts from [...]

For some time I’ve been working on a new aspect of JDeveloper – Oracle Team Productivity Center. It [...]
Alan Gibson, one of our engineering gurus here in JDeveloperland, gave me this tip recently for developing both J2EE 1.3 and 1.4 services in the same application.
1. Add your base Java implementation to project12. Create project2 for your J2EE1.3 Web service3. In the Dependencies tab of the Project Settings for project2, check project1 as a [...]
If we talk about business process integration, we would probably have a different vision and other expectations depending on our role.
For example: if we talk to the manager about business process integration, this could mean automate existing manual processes. If we talk to the sales-departement they would expect to have more insight into trends, benchmarks [...]
I recently got some questions from customers about the procedure for deploying EJB 3 Session Bean Web service in WebLogic 10. In this blog, I will outline the steps.
First develop your EJB3 session bean web service as follows:
@WebService(name=”PlaceBid”, serviceName=”PlaceBidService”, portName = “PlaceBidPort”, [...]
