Oracle NetSuite Adapter – Asynchronous API support

The Oracle NetSuite Adapter is one of the key adapters in the Oracle Integration portfolio. Oracle Integration continues to focus on enriching this adapter by targeting NetSuite customer needs. The current Oracle NetSuite Adapter in Oracle Integration already allows the integration specialist to configure the Oracle NetSuite Adapter to make real-time invocations to NetSuite to perform create, read, update, and delete operations and perform extensive search operations on standard and custom business objects. With this update, support is added for submitting all of the above operations in an asynchronous mode. This capability allows integrations to seamlessly perform bulk imports of large data sets into NetSuite and bulk data extracts from NetSuite in a declarative way.

See Oracle NetSuite Adapter Capabilities and Implement Common Patterns Using the Oracle NetSuite Adapter in Using the Oracle NetSuite Adapter with Oracle Integration.

Apache Kafka Adapter – Mutual TLS and TLS security policy support

The Apache Kafka Adapter supports the Mutual TLS and TLS security policies when configuring a connection.

See Configure Connection Security in Using the Apache Kafka Adapter with Oracle Integration.

Connectivity Agent – Automatic upgrade on Windows

The connectivity agent is a pivotal part of Oracle Integration, enabling integrations and the exchange of information between on-premises applications and Oracle Integration. Customers currently running the connectivity agent on Windows have been required to upgrade the connectivity agent manually. This created a challenge for customers trying to keep updated to the latest connectivity agent version. The automatic upgrade feature relieves customers of this requirement. Customers are required to manually upgrade for one last time, after which the connectivity agent automatically upgrades itself and no further manual upgrade is required.

REST Adapter – Multiple resources and verbs support

Oracle Integration announces yet another structural improvement in the REST Adapter. The REST Adapter had previously supported publishing only a single resource with a single verb in inbound orchestrated integrations. This created an impediment for creating pure resource-based APIs in Oracle Integration and forced integration architects to create multiple integrations to support different verbs and subresources. The REST Adapter now supports adding multiple verbs to the resource and adding subresources in the inbound definition. As an example, assume you want to have a single resource to support different combinations of operations on a sales order resource through multiple verbs and subresources. You can now design such an orchestrated integration and pick the verb, resource, or subresource from the client as desired using a single resource URI.

See REST Adapter Capabilities in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration and Receive Requests for Multiple Resources in a Single REST Adapter Trigger Connection in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

Oracle Asserter – Integration testing framework support

The Oracle Asserter testing framework enables you to record tests of integration instances and replay them to reproduce potential issues. You can simulate the behavior of both a trigger connection and the response from an invoke connection. You can also export integrations with recordings and import and test the integration in a different environment (for example, move it from a design environment to a test environment). You can also submit recordings to Oracle for analysis of errors.

See Test Integration Instances in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

Notification actions – Attachment support

You can add attachments to emails in a notification action.

See Send Notification Emails During Stages of the Integration with a Notification Action in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

March 13

Invoking co-located, active integrations from a parent integration

You can invoke a co-located (child), active integration from the parent integration that you are designing through use of the local integration adapter. Co-located means the integration is running on the same host instance or in the same domain. Upon activation and invocation of the parent integration, it invokes and consumes the co-located integration.

See Invoke a Co-located Integration from a Parent Integration in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

March 13

For-each action – Support for parallel processing

If you drag a for-each action into a scheduled integration or the for-each action is not inside a while action, for-each action, scope action, and so on, an additional field called Process items in parallel is visible at the bottom of the dialog. When selected, iterations of the for-each action are run in parallel.

See Loop over Repeating Elements with a For-Each Action in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

March 13

Activity stream enhancements

The activity stream has been enhanced to combine the audit trail with tracing information and provide a more compact and easily readable activity stream.

See Track Business Identifiers in Integrations During Runtime in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration.

Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter – Deprecation of certain Oracle HCM Cloud SOAP APIs

Following Oracle HCM Cloud’s deprecation of some of their SOAP APIs, the Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter has been enhanced to only show supported SOAP APIs in the Adapter Endpoint Configuration Wizard.

For the current list of SOAP APIs supported by Oracle HCM Cloud, see Business Object Services in Cloud SOAP Web Services for Oracle HCM Cloud and also Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration.

Slack Adapter – New adapter

Oracle Integration announces the general availability of the Slack Adapter in the social and productivity space. Slack is a collaboration hub that helps enterprises automate their workflows, enhance team productivity, and gain business efficiency by streamlining their business processes. The Slack Adapter provides support for outbound-based integrations with Slack. This enables integrations to publish updates to individuals or channels as necessary through Slack. As an example, you want to publish sales order updates for critical customers to the critical sales orders channels so that customer sales representatives can easily stay updated with their key customer order information.

See Slack Adapter Capabilities in Using the Slack Adapter with Oracle Integration.

Box Adapter – New adapter

Oracle Integration announces a new addition to its growing list of connectivity adapters. The Box Adapter is the newest addition to the list. Box.com provides content management and file sharing as a cloud service. The Box Adapter supports both inbound and outbound integrations with Box.com on the Oracle Integration platform. You can create outbound integrations to upload your business critical documents such as sales orders, service contract agreements, lease agreements, and so on as parts of integrations. You can also create inbound integrations that are triggered based on real-time events in Box such as file is modified. As an example, you want to execute an integration that updates your ERP backend system with supplier acknowledgment of the order (that is, whenever the supplier uploads the confirmation/acknowledgment document for the order in the Box.com folder). The Box Adapter enables organizations to share, process, and streamline business critical documents between Oracle, non-Oracle, cloud, or on-premises applications with rich integration capabilities as well as a vast number of adapters to connect to these applications.

See Box Adapter Capabilities in Using the Box Adapter with Oracle Integration.

March 3

Apache Kafka Adapter – New adapter

Oracle Integration announces the addition of the Apache Kafka Adapter to its growing list of connectivity adapters. In an era of digital transformation, more and more enterprises are looking to leverage Apache Kafka for streamlining the publishing and consumption of information across various cloud and on-premises business applications. The Apache Kafka Adapter connects to the Apache Kafka distributed publish-subscribe messaging system from Oracle Integration and enables an integration architect to publish and consume messages from a Kafka topic.
