Oracle Service Bus – Integration and Design – Training – Day 1
Today was the first day at the Oracle Service bus Integration and Design training, located in The Meern, nearby Utrecht in The Netherlands. Things we learned today where :
- What is a business service,
- What is a proxy service
- We did two exercises, about configuring messageflow, plus an extra assignment. The extra assignment was creating a proxyservice which polls a JMS queue and write a file on the filesystem. Learned that it is possible to put a test message on the queue from the console (didn’t know this).
We also had a discussion about versioning of services in a SOA. In the book The Definitive Guide to SOA: Oracle® Service Bus, Second Edition written by Jeff Devies, some theory about versioning about services is written. Pretty good book about implementing SOA using Oracle Service Bus.
Friday we will continue the talk about versioning of services in SOA.

Gerben, seems to me like a pretty interesting training day. Did you hear anything about new features in upcoming releases? For instance, how to reuse functionality in stages across the bus? Further fixes on buggy workspace?.. Tnx for the updates and enjoy the rest of the training!
