Back to Basics: Simple Database Web Services without the Need for SOA

  • Posted on: 13 April 2010
  • By: admin

Oracle is heavily heading down the SOA line which can be intimidating to database programmers with no experience in the web service arena or running application servers, let alone SOA. This presentation will identify as a first step that database programmers can make use of database packages like utl_http, utl_dbws and 11g's Native Web Services for consuming and publishing web services without adopting SOA straight off the ranks.
Agenda:
* Basic web service terminology: HTTP, SOAP, WSDL, RPC vs Document styles
* Consuming web services from the Oracle Database options

  • Posted on: 13 April 2010
  • By: admin

With the release of 11gR2, is it becoming more possible to achieve true database consolidation (multiple applications in one DB) not just server consolidation (multiple databases on one server)??. We will explore the options, new features and remaining challenges DBA’s(and users) face when trying to consolidate and reduce the overall management of Oracle databases.
