1-8 Oracle Fusion Middleware Deployment Guide for Oracle Service Bus

1.5.2.4 Schemas

A schema is a document that defines valid content for an XML document. Schemas are used to add XML information to messages exchanged in Oracle Service Bus. These resources are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment.

1.5.2.5 Service Accounts

Oracle Service Bus uses service accounts to provide authentication when connecting to a service or server. For information about using this resource appropriately in your production environment, see Security in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Service Bus.

1.5.2.6 Service Key Providers

Oracle Service Bus uses service key providers to supply credential-level validation to proxy services. The following types of security are available: ■ SSL client authentication ■ Digital signature ■ Encryption ■ Web services security X509 token For information about how to configure this resource appropriately for your environment, see Service Key Providers in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Service Bus.

1.5.2.7 WS-Policies

Oracle Service Bus uses Web Service Policies WS-Policies to associate Web service security policy with proxy services and business services. For information about how to configure this resource appropriately for your production environment, see Security in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Service Bus. These resources are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment.

1.5.2.8 XQuery and XSLT Transformations

Transformation maps describe the mapping between two data types. Oracle Service Bus supports data mapping using either XQuery or the eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformation XSLT standard. These resources are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment.

1.5.2.9 MFLs

Message Format Language MFL is an Oracle proprietary language used to define rules to transform formatted binary data into XML data. MFL documents are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment.

1.5.2.10 JARS

JARs Java ARchive are zipped files that contain a set of Java classes. They are used to store compiled Java classes and associated metadata that can constitute a program. JARs act as callable program libraries for Java code elements so that a single compilation link provides access to multiple elements, rather than requiring bindings for each element individually. JARs are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment. Introduction 1-9

1.5.2.11 Alert Destinations

An Alert Destination resource captures a list of recipients that can receive alert notifications from the Oracle Service Bus. In typical system monitoring contexts, alerts generated by Oracle Service Bus bear significance to a finite set of users. In Oracle Service Bus, each Alert Destination resource may be configured to include a set of recipients according to a given context. Alert Destinations are used by Alert actions configured in the message flow, and also by SLA alert rules. An Alert destination could include one or more of the following types of destinations: Console, Reporting Data stream, SNMP trap, Alert log, E-mail, JMS queue, or JMS topic. In the case of E-mail and JMS destinations, a destination resource could include a list of E-mail addresses or JMS URIs, respectively. Alert Destinations are unlikely to require updating when deployed to a new environment.
