One of the principles that continues to ring true in business is "change" and we are accelerating our requirements for new models like never before. You might have heard about Microservices and how the principle of loose-coupling promises to solve so many problems.

One of the challenges when working in integration is troubleshooting. This becomes even more challenging with when you start using a new product.
Recently I worked with Oracle Product management (Thank you Darko and Lohit) to troubleshoot issues with an OAuth configuration of APIs in Oracle API Platform Cloud Service.

When building a lot of soa suite composites, your environments end up with many different versions. So we might end up with 3 LocationService composites with versions[1.0.0.0], [1.0.1.0] and [1.0.2.0] which is the default. This takes up resources and clutters the EM. So you might want to have a way to remove these easily with having to go to the EM and manually uninstalling all of them with the risk of mis-clicking. In this blog I will show an easy way to undeploy old soa composites using java.

These weeks I got involved in a document generation performance issue. This ran for several months, maybe years even. But it stayed quite unclear what the actual issue was.

When working on a PCS application, you save and publish your changes often. However, when you publish a certain state of the application, you can decide to create a snapshot of this state of the application.
This can be very helpful if the publish represents a certain version of the application. Later these snapshots can be deployed or reverted to in case you want to roll back to a previous version. It is also possible to see what was in the application at the time of the snapshot creation.
In this blog we will show you how to work with snapshots.

Now that many of you are acquainted implementing BPM(N) processes, one should have noticed that there are multiple roads leading to the same goal while implementing a business process. One example is the invocation of an asynchronous service. This can either be done with a Send Task or a Message Throw Event. This blog tells about the difference between those two activities within PCS and when you should pick one over the other.

So within Process Cloud Service (PCS) we have already shown the tasklist a couple of times. This is the default tasklist that comes with the product. You can use the left hand side filters and handle the actions in the tasks within the task screens.

This week I deliver a BPM 12c Workshop, that I based on the 12.2.1.3 BPM QuickStart. When the students worked on the lab on Human Workflow, they hit an error deploying the Composite, where in the log you can find something like:
Apparently in the repository of 12.2.1.3 a column is missing in the Workflow Metadata table.

A secure distributed ledger with smart contract capabilities not requiring a bank as an intermediary! Also a single source of truth with complete traceability. Definitely something we want! Blockchain technology promises to make this possible. Blockchain became famous through cryptocurrency like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The technology could also be considered to replace B2B functionality. With new technologies it is not a bad idea to look at pro’s and con’s before starting an implementation. Blockchain is the new kid on the block and there is not much experience yet on how well he will play with others and will mature. In this blog I summarize some of my concerns concerning blockchain of which I hope will be solved in due time.
