Oracle SOA Suite 11g : Build Composite Applications NEW

Course Description

This course covers designing and developing SOA composite applications for application integration with services by using a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) implementation approach. Composite applications are modeled and developed according to the Service Component Architecture (SCA) specifications.With the Oracle JDeveloper 11g Integrated Development Environment (IDE), participants learn how to design, develop, deploy, and test SOA Composite applications comprising of Mediator, BPEL, Business Rules, Human Tasks (Workflow) components. The course also discusses how to secure interactions between services using Oracle Web Services Manager policies.Learn To:Create a SOA Composite application using JDeveloper.Initiate SOA composite applications using the Events Delivery Network.Test, debug, and troubleshoot a SOA composite application.Apply security policies to service endpoints.
