Weblogic Admin and Managed servers as a Windows service
1When running a Weblogic server and its managed servers I have heard at multiple projects that there is a need of automatic startup of these server processes. There is not default an options to create a windows service when installing Weblogic and for example SOA Suite. The one option that is available is to create a windows service for the node manager.
This small guide will show how to create a windows service for the Weblogic AdminServer, the node manager and the Managed server and setting up the evironment settings. For creating the Windows services a tool called NSSM (the Non-Sucking Service Manager) is used.

ADF DVT: Analyzing Financial Position of the European Football (Soccer) Leagues using Treemap
1We all know a lot of money is involved with professional sports. One of Europe’s major sports is football (or soccer as some like to call it). A lot of money changes in hand in football. And it seems that the results are determined primarily by the money. The major pan-European competition – the UEFA Champion’s League- is called out of reach for representatives from smaller countries – because of their lag in terms of yearly budget. And the national leagues are dominated by [clubs that have the] money.
Together with my son Tobias we decided to investigate. How much money is in the budgets for all clubs taken together in each of the major football leagues? And how is that money distributed over the clubs. Is it evenly allocated or are there wild variations? And is money a guarantee for success?
We decided to use the ADF DVT Treemap component to visualize our findings. From left to right, you see four treemaps, representing the football leagues of England, Spain, Germany and The Netherlands. The size of each treemap corresponds with the sum of all club budgets in that league. Inside the treemap, each area represents a club. The size of the area corresponds with the budget of the More >
SOA Suite definitive guide to: The UMS adapter (11.1.1.7)
0This week Oracle released it sixth patchset (11.1.1.7) of the SOA Suite and it’s IDE JDeveloper. In this new release there are some small changes in the IDE, but there are also some mayor changes like two new adapters; healthcare and the UMS (User Messaging Service). This blog will look into the use of the UMS adapter as a inbound and outbound service in a SOA Composite. This adapter was already available as beta in PS5 but now it is an official adapter.
By using the UMS (User Messaging Service) adapter as an inbound service you can initiate a instance of a SOA composite by receiving a email message on one or more configured recipients. By using the UMS adapter as an outbound service you can send email messages to one or more recipients with an optional option to send data message as an attachment. (more…)
ADF DVT – Scaling TreeMap components for comparisons across masters and categories
0In a recent article (http://technology.amis.nl/2013/04/02/adf-dvt-using-the-tree-map-visualization-component-to-compare-relative-sizes-and-distributions/) I discussed the ADF DVT Treemap component. This component visualizes data in such a way that comparisons between data values for different records and categories can quickly be made. The size of areas is a measure for some numerical value. As an additional dimension, the color of the areas can be used to identify groups (all members of the group having the same color) or to visualize a second numerical value (color can range for example from dark red to rich green depending on the net revenue per record).
This article describes the situation where we want to use multiple Treemap instances lined up. Each Treemap instance represents a collection of records on one or possibly multiple levels. Each instance can be drilled down into independently. And each instance can represent a different data set, even though we want to compare these data sets. Using a PanelGridLayout, it is easy to position multiple instances in a row or a grid. Using the inline style to scale the width and height of the Treemap instances, we can set the relative More >

ADF DVT: Using the Tree Map visualization component – to compare relative sizes and distributions
0The tree map component is one of those data visualization components that can tell an entire story through a simple picture. But of course that picture is anything but simple. And it is not even just a picture: it supports various forms of interaction such as drill down and popup. I had seen the Tree Map for the first time in demonstrations by Oracle Product Management. It seemed okay, but nothing very spectacular. Now, after having tried out the component for myself as well as studying the documentation, I may have to revise my initial opinion: it is actually a pretty cool and powerful component.
The Tree Map is used to present data values in a way that makes comparison easy, using two dimensions: (relative) size and color. The TreeMap uses containers for nodes with sizes relative to the numerical value associated with the nodes. Each node can have details and the container is presented with enclosed areas for each of the details. The size of these areas is proportional again to the value associated with the child node. All areas can be colored automatically – to create a pretty picture – or can be colored according to rules we can specify in order to have the colors also convey More >
