Oracle Service Bus
Oracle Service Bus Core Features • By fusing the concepts of the ESB, message brokering, and
operational services management into a single product, Oracle Service Bus allows management and integration of messages and services across a services network. Its core functional features are separated into the following categories: – Service Integration - features used for integrating disparate service end-
points, message brokering, and mediating and exposing services for reuse– Service Security - features used for service authentication and
authorization, message security enforcement, and user identity validation– Service Composition - features used for configuring message routing logic,
message transformation, service configuration, validation and registry– Service Management - features used for monitoring and managing service
activity and availability
Log in to Oracle Service Bus Console• Oracle Service Bus Console is a Web services
management dashboard.• Properties:
– monitor Web services– Monitor servers– perform service management tasks.– configuring proxy and business services– setting up security– managing resources– capturing data for tracking or regulatory auditing– views to monitor current state and health of OSB environment.– detailed statistics about servers, services, and alerts.– enables you respond rapidly and effectively to changes in your service-oriented
environment
To log in to Oracle Service Bus Console
• Open a browser window and enter the following URL to open the Oracle Service Bus Console for the ServiceBusTutorial domain:
• http://localhost:7001/sbconsole• Log in with Oracle Service Bus Console the
user name and password that you specified when you created the domain.
Architecture
1. Configuration Framework• Service Discovery
(UDDI Service Registry )• Change Center• Validation (Test Console )• Resource Cache
(Resource Management )
Configuration Management• Change Center• Atomic sessions• View & resolve conflicts• Undo tasks• Audit changes• Import/Export• Change propagation• Workspace synchronization• Test Console• Validate changes
Change Center• Key to making configuration changes inside the service bus.• The Change Center has the unique ability to lock its current configuration while
changes are being made, letting the service bus continue to receive and process requests for services while configuration changes are being made in the console.
• Changes being made to the configuration do not affect the current system configuration until they are “activated”.
• View conflicts• View changes• Undo changes• View all sessions• Activate sessions• View task details
Create a Session and Set up a Project• Monitor resources and configurations in Oracle Service Bus environment
– Create an session in the Oracle Service Bus Console to update or delete resources and modify their configuration properties.
– The Change Center in the console allows you to create and manage sessions.– Allows you to perform the functions summarized in the following table:
Click
Create Create a new session & make changes to configuration.
Edit Enter a session that you previously created and exited. You must activate a session before you can use Edit.
Exit Discontinue the session and save the session state. Click Edit to re-enterthe discontinued session.
Discard End the current session without saving the changes
Activate Save the current session's configuration to the run time
Resource Management • Oracle Service Bus provides the following resource management
capabilities:
– Stores information about services, schemas, transformations, WSDLs (Web Service Definition Language), and WS Policies
– Provides centralized management and distributed access to resources and services– Allows browsing of services registered in Oracle Service Bus and import of resources
from WebLogic Workshop or other applications– Allows the propagation of configuration data from environment to environment (for
example, from a development domain to a test domain to a production domain). The system allows environment specific settings to be overridden during import.
– Allows for better synchronization and notification capabilities.
Resources• There are pre-defined resources types in the
OSB system environment.
Validation• Oracle Service Bus built-in test console is a browser-based test
environment used to validate resources and inline XQuery expressions used in the message flow.
• Using the test console, it is possible to configure the test object (proxy service, business service, XQuery, XSLT, MFL resource), execute the test, and view test results.
• The test console can be invoked in a number of ways in the Oracle Service Bus Console, from: – The Project Explorer – The Resource Browser – The XQuery Editor
2. Service Management• Monitoring Dashboard• SLA Alerts• Reporting
Monitoring Dashboard• Gauge the current health of:
• OSB servers• Proxy services/operations• Message flow components

performance and/or quality• Trigger reports and Alerts
• Email• SNMP• JMS
• Rules based on:• Response time• Message count• Success/failure ratio• Schema violations• Security violations
3. Message Brokering1. Content Based Routing (of messages)2. Data Transformation3. Error Handling4. Service Switching
Message BrokeringService providers and clients exchange messages with an intermediary
proxy service instead of directly with each other, eliminating complexities resulting from heterogeneous communication protocols and messaging formats
– XQuery-based policies or callouts to external services for message routing
– Routing policies that apply to both point-to-point and one-to-many routing scenarios (publish). For publish, routing policies serve as subscription filters
XPath• Is a standard XML expression languageUsed to identify or locate portions of an XMLDocumentAttributes Elements
XQuery• Structured language for working with XMLdocuments:• Strongly typed• Variables, operators, conditions, loops• Library and custom functions• Relational database queries• Supports Xpath
Extensible Stylesheet LanguageTransformations (XSLT)• Alternative to XQuery for XML transformations:• Loosely typed scripting language• Does not require XML Schema• More tolerant of malformed XML• Supports Xpath
Communication Types • To support heterogeneous environments, Oracle Service Bus
accommodates multiple messaging paradigms. It supports the following types of communication: – Synchronous request/response– Asynchronous publish one-one– Asynchronous publish one-many– Asynchronous request/response (synchronous-to-asynchronous
bridging)
Business services• Business services are Oracle Service Bus definitions of the
enterprise services that exchange messages during business processes.
• To configure a business service, you must specify its interface, the type of transport it uses, its security requirements, and other characteristics.
Proxy Services• Proxy services are OSB definitions of intermediary Web services that OSB
implements locally on Oracle WebLogic Server.• With OSB message brokering, service clients exchange messages with an
intermediary proxy service rather than working directly with a business service.
• A proxy service can route messages to multiple business services.• you can configure a proxy service message flow definition to route a
message to the appropriate business service and map the message data into the format required by the business service interface.
Message Flows• A message flow is the implementation of a proxy service.• You configure the logic for the manipulation of messages using proxy
service message flow definitions.• This logic includes such activities as transformation, publishing, and
reporting, which are implemented as individual actions within the stages of a pipeline.
Start node • Every message flow begins with a start node. • All messages enter the message flow through the start node, and all
response messages are returned to the client through the start node.• There is nothing to configure in a start node.
Pipelines• Pipeline pairs are request and response pipelines.• The request pipeline definition specifies the actions that Oracle Service
Bus performs on request messages to the proxy service before invoking a business service or another proxy service.
• The response pipeline definition specifies the processing that Oracle Service Bus performs on responses from the business or proxy service that the proxy service invokes before returning a response to a client.
• Each pipeline consists of a sequence of stages.
Stage• Stage is a user-configured processing step.• Messages fed into the pipelines are accompanied by a set of message
context variables that contain the message contents.• They can be accessed or modified by actions in the pipeline stages.
Branch node
• A branch node allows processing to proceed along exactly one of several possible paths.
• Operational branching is supported for WSDL-based services, where the branching is based on operations defined in the WSDL.
• Conditional branching is supported for conditions defined in an XPath-based switch table.
• Two kinds of branching are supported in message flows: • operational branching, configured in an operational branch node, and• conditional branching, configured in a conditional branch node.
Operational Branching & Conditional Branching
• When you create an operational branch node in a message flow, you can build branching logic based on the operations defined in the WSDL.
• You must use operational branching when a proxy service is based on a WSDL with multiple operations.
• Use conditional branching to branch based on a specified condition.• Conditional branching is driven by a lookup table with each branch tagged
with simple, unique string values.• At run time, the variable or the expression is evaluated, and the resulting
value is used to determine which branch to follow.• If no branch matches the value, the default branch is followed.
Route Node• A route node performs request/response communication with another
service.• It represents the boundary between request and response processing for
the proxy service.• When the route node dispatches a request message, the request
processing is considered complete.• The route node supports conditional routing as well as request and
response transformations.• Because a route node represents the boundary between request and
response processing, it cannot have any descendants in the message flow.
Actions in Stages and Route Nodes • Actions provide instructions for handling messages in pipeline stages,
error handler stages, and route nodes.• Based on the context actions are described in 4 different sections:• Communication Actions• Flow Control Actions• Message Processing Actions• Reporting Actions

Dynamic Message Transformation • Oracle Service Bus supports the following capabilities for the
transformation or processing of messages: – Validates incoming messages against schemas– Selects a target service or services, based on the message
content or message headers– Transforms messages based on the target service– Transforms messages based on XQuery or XSLT– Supports transformations on both XML and MFL messages– Message enrichment– Supports callouts to Web services to gather additional data for
transformation (for example, country code, full customer records, and so on)
Service Callouts(Service Switching)• Oracle Service Bus provides a service callout action that offers
greater flexibility for more sophisticated message flows for complex dynamic-routing processing, or to perform message enrichment.
• The service callout action is used inside a message flow routing stage, to call on the destination service to perform some action on the message.
• Supports features such as:– RPC Encoding– URL replacement – Java Callouts and POJOs.
Error Handling• Oracle Service Bus supports the following error handling
capabilities: – Configure system to format and send error messages, and return messages for
consumers of services who expect a synchronous response– Configure error handling logic for pipeline stages, entire pipeline, and for proxy
services – Generate alerts based on message context in a pipeline, to send to an alert
destination. Level Scope
Stage Handles all the errors within a stage.
Pipeline Handles all the errors in a pipeline, along with any unhandled errors from any stage in a pipeline.
Service Handles all the errors in a proxy service, along with any unhandled errors in any pipeline in a service.
System Handles all the errors that are not handled any where else in a pipeline.
Transport Errors • When a transport error is received from an external service and there is no error response
payload returned to Oracle Service Bus by the transport provider (for example, in the case that an HTTP 403 error code is returned), the service callout action throws an exception, which in turn causes the pipeline to raise an error.
• Contents of the Oracle Service Bus fault Variable—Transport Error, no Error Response Payload :• <con:fault xmlns:con="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/context">
<con:errorCode>BEA-380000</con:errorCode> <con:reason>Not Found</con:reason> <con:details> ....... </con:details> <con:location> <con:node>PipelinePairNode1</con:node> <con:Pipeline>PipelinePairNode1_request</con:Pipeline> <con:Stage>Stage1</con:Stage> </con:location></con:fault>
Transport Headers in Message Flows • The following options are available when you configure a transport headers action:• The Pass all Headers through Pipeline option specifies that at run time, the
transport headers action passes all headers through from the inbound message to the outbound message or vice versa. Every header in the source set of headers is copied to the target header set, overwriting any existing values in the target header set.
• The Copy Header from Inbound Request option and the Copy Header from Outbound Response options specifies that at run time, the transport headers action copies the specific header with which this option is associated from the inbound message to the outbound message or vice versa.
SOAP Faults • In case an external service returns a SOAP fault, the Oracle Service Bus run time sets
up the context variable $fault with a custom error code and description with the details of the fault.
• <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <SOAP-ENV:Fault> <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Client</faultcode> <faultstring>Application Error</faultstring> <detail> <message>That’s an Error!</message> <errorcode>1006</errorcode> </detail> </SOAP-ENV:Fault> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
