The Oracle Service Bus day 1 and day 2 where very interesting. We covered the following things :
- Validation
- Dynamic routing
- Java callout
- service callout
- The Transport Typed services (ejb and flow)
- Reporting and Logging (debugging)
These things are also covered in the best book to read about Oracle Service bus : The Definitive Guide to SOA: Oracle® Service Bus, Second Edition
The teacher gave us a couple of tips about books to read about integration with Oracle Service bus. The first book is about XQuery. This is a query language on XML (on top of Xpath). If you are interested in the book, you can get it here : XQuery
The next book is about Enterprise Integration Patterns. You can get it here : Enterprise Integration Patterns: Designing, Building, and Deploying Messaging Solutions (Addison-Wesley Signature Series)
Overall the course was very good, the teacher answered a lot of technical questions. In our class where 10 people. For the assignments there was a computer available for the students.
