OracleServiceBus(OSB)andOEPEVersionson64-bitSystems
SEPTEMBER 20, 2013 BY FRANK LEAVE A COMMENT
If you are installing Oracle Service Bus (OSB) 11.1.1.7 which is the newest version as of this writing based on
WebLogic 10.3.6 you are required to use the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse (OEPE) 11.1.1.8 (supported with
Java 6).
Note that OSB 11g wont run on WLS 12c. Although WLS 10.3.6 supports JDK 7, at the end I decided to run my WLS
installation on the same JDK 6 version used for the OEPE IDE.
Typically matching OSB, WLS and OEPE versions is a no-brainer when downloading the bundle that
contains WebLogic with Eclipse and OEPE for a particular 32-bit environment. The real fun starts with
systems running 64-bit JVMs.
For my 64-bit CentOS 6.4 system I downloaded all the individual components separately with matching version
numbers:
Supported Oracle DB 11gR2 (XE works but not officially supported)
WebLogic 10.3.6
Generic Patch 13573621
Eclipse with OEPE 11.1.1.8
OSB Installer 11.1.1.7
RCU (when OSB is used with reporting or OWSM)

You can get all the different OEPE versions from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/eclipse/downloads/oepe-archive-1716547.html
The important thing to understand about the OEPE download is that it contains already ORACLE enterprise
funtionality but not the OSB functionality.
Still there exists no separate OSB plugin. When running the OSB installer after the WLS installation, you specify
the directory containing Eclipse with OEPE and the functionality will be added.

This is the location where you would get an error message telling you that you are using the wrong version of
OEPE. If you version matches, OEPE will be updated for OSB functionality.

A good summary for other matching versions of previous product releases can be found in this OTN posting.

Audience
Oracle Service Bus is one of these software products that havent changed much in their core since many years.
These days I tend to see more and more OSB projects and one reason certainly is that license wise OSB is
included with Oracle SOA Suite.
Compared to SOA Suite, OSB is conceptually different though. Even with a good understanding of SOA Suite
(which I will cover in one of the following posts), there will be a slightly steep, but rather short learning curve for
OSB.
The following recipes tries to motivate and explain the usage of OSB without the usual marketing hype. Make
sure to read the previous posting about getting started with SOA in general and Oracle Fusion Middleware.
Technology
OSB is virtualizing service calls from clients to the service implementation. By using so called proxy and business
services (both are components within OSB) incoming and outgoing requests can be arbitrarily connected and
protocols can be converted. Proxy services contain the processing logic (validation, enrichment, transformation
etc.).

If you are trying to get started with OSB, here is the link to download Oracle Service Bus Overview and Getting
Started (PDF).
Enjoy!
PS. Actually this recipe is taken out of my book Oracle WebLogic Server 12c Distinctive Recipes.

questi ons. In the context of using JMS as an integration technology Id like to summarize the usage scenarios for
Oracle WebLogic JMS Store-and-Forward and JMS-bridges (both are included in WebLogic server).
Hi Frank [ ...] We have a requirement to build 2-way asynchronous integration between an application running
on WLS in AWS and a legacy J2EE app running on IBM WebSphere in our Data Centre. From your excepts my
understanding is that SQS is intended for use only between AWS apps is this correct ? I think we need to be
looking at a full JMS solution for our integration perhaps using WLS JMS Store-And-Forward Thanks, Peter D
Hi Peter,
Based on your comment I cannot go into great detail or even provide a solid architecture that anwsers you
question (one that will save you from more reading) but here are some important points to consider:
- Amazons SQS is not restricted to be only used from AWS instances. SQS is purely based on web services (or
language bindings that encapsulate those WS calls) so you can use it from any computer. E.g. you can read or
write to SQS queues from remote.
- WLS Store-and-Forward (SAF) can only couple WLS instances of the same version and does not bridge to other
JMS providers. You cannot use SAF to transfer from WLS JMS to IBM MQSeries (or whatever Websphere might
use). JMS is a pretty bad integration technology which requires to have the right messaging classes in your
classpath. E.g. when writing messages from Websphere to a WebLogic JMS queue you are required to have the
WLS JMS classes in Websphere classpath.
- You can use the WebLogics JMS bridge to solve the somehow messy classpath issues. WLS JMS bridge has to be
deployed as JCA adapter (still the jar file from the other provider is required but it is not used in custom code). The
bridge will automatically forward from e.g. WLS JMS to MQSeries and even supports transcations. However there
is no support to bridge between WLS JMS and AWS SQS.
- Unlike lets say Oracle Service Bus, if you are looking at Apache Camel there is support to convert incoming JMS
messages to outgoing SQS. Note to Oracles product manager of OSB: we would appreciate to have SQS as a
supported transport protocol or possibly as an SOA Suite JCA adapter. Thanks for considering it
regards,
Frank

When designing your cloud architecture sooner or later the question about the database will arise. Today
Amazon Web Services announced the availability of Oracle database instances provisioned with the AWS
Relational Database Service (RDS). However, there are many other options available, and in order to make an
informed decision as to which will best suit your architecture, you should know the pros and cons of at least four:
You can start installing your database on an AMI with the operating system of your choice, or even select an
AMI provided by Oracle and set up the included Standard or Enterprise Edition.
SimpleDB is an option if you prefer the scalability and availability of a non-relational database.
The relational database service from AWS offers a convenient and easy way to create and manage an Oracle
MySQL database as a cloud service.
Starti ng today you can use RDS to create an Oracl e database. So for the first time in the short
history of cloud computing a licensed Oracle database can be used in the cloud with a pay per use model! You
pay the database instance per hour used (or bring your own license)- and only this is real cloud computing.
I summarized my view in a detailed 12 page whitepaper (the weather here is too nice and I cant bother myself
putting all the screen shots into this blog posting).
The PDF describes all the details of RDS and compares them to the other options available. Also learn how to use
WebLogic with RDS:
Cloud Databases and Oracle Whitepaper.
UPDATE: As of Aug/2012 there is support for APEX, Oracle XML DB and VPC now!
