                      Describe Oracle Service Bus Concepts and Architecture<\/h2><\/span>\n

                      Architecture Overview<\/h3><\/span>\n

                      * OSB, like other ESBs, provide message delivery service based on standards such as:
                      \n– SOAP
                      \n– HTTP
                      \n– JMS
                      \n* Message delivery features:
                      \n– High throughput
                      \n– Guaranteed delivery
                      \n* Payload:
                      \n– Native data type: XML
                      \n– Other data types: supports
                      \n* OSB is policy driven:
                      \n– Provide loose coupling between providers and consumers
                      \n– Maintaining centralized point of
                      \n~ security control
                      \n~ monitoring
                      \n* Metadata stores:
                      \n– Persistence policy
                      \n– Proxy service definitions
                      \n– Resource configurations
                      \n* Metadata can be customized and propagated (via import\/export) from
                      \ndev -> staging -> prod<\/p>\n

                      OSB as Intermediary<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Performs VETRO ESB pattern:
                      \n– Validate, Enrich, Transform, Route, Operate
                      \n* Switches transport protocols:
                      \n– Receive HTTP\/S, File, FTP, JMS
                      \n– Outputs same or different protocols
                      \n* Message processing is specified in
                      \n– the message flow definition of a Proxy Service<\/p>\n

                      Key Architecture Concepts<\/h3><\/span>\n
                      \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

                      Message Processing<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Message can contain data and status about:
                      \n– application processes
                      \n– instructions for recipient
                      \n* Content based operations (via OSB transport and binding layers):
                      \n– routing
                      \n– transformation<\/p>\n

                      Binding Layer<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Packs\/unpacks messages as necessary
                      \n* Handles msg security
                      \n* Hands msg off to start (request or response) msg flows<\/p>\n

                      Inbound\/Outbound Transport Layer<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Responsible for input\/output messages
                      \n* Not<\/strong> involved in data processing<\/p>\n

                      Proxy Services<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Proxy services are OSB intermediary web services implementation
                      \n* Can be virtual services or composite services
                      \n* Exposed to service consumers<\/p>\n

                      Message Context<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * A set of XML variables shared across the request\/response flow
                      \n* Can be
                      \n– read\/modified by XQuery
                      \n– updated by transformation
                      \n* Wrapper variables:
                      \n – $header
                      \n– $body
                      \n– $attachments
                      \n* Wraps non-SOAP messages and exposes them as SOAP messages<\/p>\n

                      Message Flow Definitions<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * A message flow definition specifies implementation of a proxy service:
                      \n– Start node
                      \n– A pipeline pair: one for request and one for response
                      \n– Branch node: message content based
                      \n– Route node: message destination. Defaults to echo.<\/p>\n

                      \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

                      * Also includes security processing (WS-Sec, WS-Policy)<\/p>\n

                      OSB Deployment<\/h3><\/span>\n

                      * Single server deployment
                      \n* Cluster of servers<\/p>\n

                      Change Management<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Supported via configuration export\/import<\/p>\n

                      Metadata Export<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Export exiting OSB configurations, including all dependencies, into a JAR file.
                      \n* Only configurations that have been activated, i.e. deployed to run time, can be exported.<\/p>\n

                      Metadata Import<\/h4><\/span>\n

                      * Imports configurations into an active session.
                      \n* Supports global replacements of environment specific elements
                      \n* Can be automated by WLST<\/p>\n

                      * Event driven system comprises of:
                      \n– Several event sources
                      \n– Real-time event driven applications: rules driven with rules expressed in CQL
                      \n– Event sinks
                      \n* Components are decoupled from each other<\/p>\n

                      * aka WebLogic Event Server
                      \n* Is a Java server for development and deployment of high performance event driven applications
                      \n* Is a light weight Java application container based Equinox OSGi
                      \n* Based on Oracle CQL
                      \n* Tools
                      \n– CEP Visualizer
                      \n– CEP IDE for Eclipse<\/p>\n

                      CEP Components<\/h3><\/span>\n

                      * Adapters
                      \n– Interface directly between inbound\/outbound streams and relation sources\/sinks
                      \n– Understand inbound\/outbound protocols
                      \n– Convert event data into normalized form that can be queried by a processor
                      \n– Forward normalized event data into channels or outbound streams and relation sinks
                      \n* Channels
                      \n– They are event processing end points
                      \n– Streams are responsible for queuing event data until the event processing agent can act upon it (?)
                      \n* Processors (aka event processing agents)
                      \n– Consumes normalized event data from channels
                      \n– Process event data using queries
                      \n– May generate new events
                      \n* Beans
                      \n– They are POJSs
                      \n– Uses external messaging services such as JMS, WS, File\/FTP, to forward generated events to external event sinks
                      \n– They register to listen to output channel
                      \n– Triggered by insertion of a new event into output channel
                      \n* Event beans
                      \n– Like beans but uses Oracle CEP event bean API (so can be managed by CEP)<\/p>\n
