SOA PARTNER COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER JULY 
2012 
                  Dear 
SOA partner community member 
                  To 
provide our community members the best of our knowledge, we want your feedback 
on our SOA Partner community. Thus we are organizing SOA Partner Community Survey 2012. We 
request you to participate in the survey and give your valuable feedback on 
various areas of marketing, sales and education. 
                  To 
continue our successful BPM Suite, Oracle is launching together with you Process Accelerators initiative. It’s 
your opportunity to co-develop and market predefined processes. Oracle Fusion Applications Design 
Patterns are a great tool to develop your SOA or BPM solution or process 
accelerators. 
                  To 
promote your SOA & BPM Specialization we continue to offer several benefits. 
This month we would like to highlight our Specialization Plaques - make sure you 
request one for your office! 
                  Our 
Fusion Middleware Summer Camps are 
booked out, if could not get a seat you can attend the SOA & BPM track @ Virtual Developer 
Day: Oracle Fusion Development 
                  Oracle demo systems offer´s two new 
demos: Business Driven Development based on BPM Suite & SOA Lifecycle 
Management.

is very interested to co-develop and market with you, our partners, pre-defined 
processes for BPM Suite.I am very happy to announce a new program called 
“Oracle BPM Partner Solution Catalog”. This program will provide a one-stop shop 
for our customers looking for Oracle BPM partner solutions available in the 
market today.The Oracle BPM Solution Catalog will be hosted on our very 
popular Oracle Technology Network (OTN). To give you an idea of the scale of 
customer visibility, OTN today receives over 1Million hits per day from our 
business and developer community. We would like to invite you to list your 
Oracle BPM 11g solutions available today.In order to participate in this 
program, you need to do the following: 
                                   
                                    Fill 
in the attached slide templates - #3 and #4 for each Oracle BPM 11g solution you 
would like to list on OTN.Please add links to whitepapers , videos, 
references to the specific solution in the template slide. We recommend that you 
create a landing page on your website for these linked artifacts and just point 
to the same from within the PowerPoint template. This will give you the 
flexibility to update the information as frequently as needed. If you have the 
particular solution in production or a reference available, please list them as 
well.  
                                    Send 
the PowerPoint template slides (1 set of slides for each Oracle BPM solution) to 
[email protected].  
                                   
                                  In 
addition to having the opportunity to list your solutions on OTN for Oracle 
customers, you will have the chance to advertise your new 
wins/implementations/solutions in an Oracle Sponsored PM Webinar held every 
quarter. 
                                  This 
program is targeted to go live by the end of summer 2012. At this point, we are 
targeting a soft launch in July end 2012 so send on your BPM solutions 
information as soon as possible. We would love to have your solution(s) listed 
in the “Oracle BPM Partner Solution Catalog” at the time of the launch. This 
will be a live repository so you can keep adding more solutions as they become 
available. 
                                  If 
you have any questions, please feel free to contact us [email protected], Product Strategy 
Director, Oracle BPM , Phone +1 650.506.5486.Thank you and look forward

11.1.1.6 
               
               
                 
                   
                     
                       
                         
                          What 
tools are available for diagnosing SOA Suite issues? There are 
a variety of tools available to help you and Support diagnose SOA Suite issues 
in 11g but it can be confusing as to which tool is appropriate for a particular 
situation and what their relationships are. This blog post will introduce the 
various tools and attempt to clarify what each is for and how they are related. 
Let's first list the tools we'll be addressing: 
                           
                            RDA: 
Remote Diagnostic Agent  
                            DFW: 
Diagnostic Framework  
                            Selective 
Tracing  
                            DMS: 
Dynamic Monitoring Service  
                            ODL: 
Oracle Diagnostic Logging  
                            ADR: 
Automatic Diagnostics Repository  
                            ADRCI: 
Automatic Diagnostics Repository Command Interpreter  
                            WLDF: 
WebLogic Diagnostic Framework  
                           
                          This 
overview is not mean to be a comprehensive guide on using all of these tools, 
however, extensive reference materials are included that will provide many more 
details on their execution. Another point to note is that all of these tools are 
applicable for Fusion Middleware as a whole but specific products may or may not 
have implemented features to leverage them. A couple of the tools have a 
WebLogic Scripting Tool or 'WLST' interface. WLST is a command interface for 
executing pre-built functions and custom scripts against a domain. A detailed 
WLST tutorial is beyond the scope of this post but you can find general 
information here. There are more specific resources in the below 
sections.In this post when we refer to 'Enterprise Manager' or 'EM' we 
are referring to Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. read the full blog post

                 BUSINESS DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT (BDD) DEMO NOW 
AVAILABLE!

                          DSS 
is pleased to announce the availability of the demo “Business Driven 
Development“. This innovative demonstration uses a case-study approach to show 
business users how they can easily streamline their Business Processes - 
delivering greater efficiency, agility, visibility and collaboration with Oracle 
BPM and WebCenter. 
                          The 
BDD demonstration uses a case study-based approach to highlight a business 
problem at a fictional company, Avitek Corporation, and uses Oracle BPM and 
Oracle WebCenter to solve the business problem. This holistic approach has 
specifically been used to appeal to a non-technical business analyst user. This 
demo is NOT focused on product features, but aims to guide users through a 
complete BPM lifecycle. 
                          The scenario is based on improving a simple order 
process (scenario details are in the demo script). Avitek Corporation is 
sufferinng from a manual email-driven ordering process. Sales reps don’t know 
where the customer orders are stuck (no visibility) and finance users are unable 
to manually approve every order (no automation). There are several areas where 
this process can be improved with Business Process Management technology. This 
demo shows how improving following areas will ignificantly help resolve the 
business problems Avitek Corporation is facing. Areas for improvement 
include: 
                           
                            Utilizing BPM for process management, 
rather than an unregulated, email-based process.  
                            Utilizing 
automated services, rather than requiring a human to key into a system. For 
example, Finance checking the customer’s credit rating is something that could 
be automated.  
                            Centralizing 
business rules that can be integrated into a business process, rather than 
requiring a human to process them. For example, Finance must determine when 
orders can be automatically approved.  
                            Provide 
insight and visibility into the process. For example, Sales Rep needs to know 
the status of their customer’s orders.  
                           
                          The 
BDD Demo uses the following products.

                 ORACLE FUSION APPLICATIONS DESIGN 
PATTERNS 
               
               
                 
                   
                     
                       
                        The 
Oracle Fusion Applications user experience design patterns are 
published! These new, reusable usability solutions and best-practices, which 
will join the Oracle dashboard patterns and 
guidelines that are already available online, are used by Oracle to artfully 
bring to life a new standard in the user experience, or UX, 
of enterprise applications. Now, the Oracle applications development 
community can benefit from the science behind the Oracle Fusion Applications 
user experience, too. 
                           
                          These 
Oracle Fusion Applications UX Design Patterns, or blueprints, enable Oracle 
applications developers and system implementers everywhere to leverage 
professional usability insight when: 
                           
                            tailoring an Oracle Fusion 
application,  
                            creating 
coexistence solutions that existing users will be delighted with, thus enabling 
graceful user transitions to Oracle Fusion Applications down the road, or  
                            designing 
exciting, new, highly usable applications in the cloud or on-premise.  
                           
                          Based 
on the Oracle Application Development Framework 
(ADF) components, the Oracle Fusion Applications patterns and guidelines are 
proven with real users and in the Applications UX usability labs, so you 
can get right to work coding productivity-enhancing designs that provide an 
advantage for your entire business. 
                          What’s 
the best way to get started? We’ve made that easy, too. The Design Filter Tool 
(DeFT) selects the best pattern for your user type and task. Simply adapt your 
selection for your own task flow and content, and you’re on your way to a really 
great applications user experience. 
                          More 
Oracle applications design patterns and training are coming your way in the 
future. To provide feedback on the sets that are currently available, let me

SOASchool.com - SOA Certified Professional (SOACP) program is dedicated to 
excellence in the field of SOA and service-oriented computing. Through a series 
of seasoned course modules and exams, IT professionals have the opportunity to 
obtain a number of different certifications to recognize their accomplishment of 
gaining "project ready" SOA proficiency. This comprehensive and strictly 
vendor-neutral program was developed in cooperation with best-selling SOA author 
Thomas Erl and several major SOA organizations and academic institutions. 
Through the involvement of the SOA Education Committee, course contents and 
certification requirements are constantly reviewed and revised to stay current 
with developments in the service-oriented computing industry. The program is 
currently comprised of 12 course modules and 5 certifications and is expanding 
to 18 course modules and 8 certifications throughout 2009. For more information,
