Below you will find the slides for my Oracle Open World 2011 presentation Push to the limit – rich and pro-active user interfaces with ADF on ADF’s active data service and other facilities to do client to server push as well as JMS to Client push and Database to Client push. The presentation also discusses some useful tricks (the nudge pattern for example) as well the overall challenges with push across various tiers in an enterprise application architecture. The BAM Data Control makes an appearance, and some future developments are taken into account (WebSockets, HTML 5 etc.)

Book review of: Getting Started With Oracle SOA Suite 11g R1: A Hands-On Tutorial

Getting Started With Oracle SOA Suite 11g R1: A Hands-On Tutorial
Authors: Demed L’Her, Heidi Buelow, Jayaram Kasi, Manas Deb, Prasen Palvankar (aka Oracle Product Management for SOA Suite)
A hands-on tutorial is what the cover of the book promises, and that is exactly what you get. A quick, very hands-on introduction into the most important components in the SOA Suite 11g. In no time at all, readers will be able to get a composite application up and running. An application that leverages many of the essential features and functions in the SOA Suite.
Some books are primarily an introduction into a certain topic, with lots of theory, background and explanations of what, why and how. Other books are mainly reference material that you use to look things up when you need them. This book is neither – it offers very little in the way of explanation and background and it would be fairly useless as reference guide. It is however a very good way to get to know the SOA Suite – both design time and run time – and get a feel for how to develop for it and run applications in it.
The book contains a large number of informative screenshots and also provides the salient code snippets. It is very focused on getting specific jobs done, and for these jobs it has all the information and illustrations you may need. It is hard to not get it to work following the very detailed instructions.
The book – or at least the paper copy I am holding – is written for the very first 11gR1 release, that was published on July 1st 2009. The functions made available with PS1 release (November 2009) are not discussed therefore.
