OTN Appreciation Day : Oracle WebLogic 12c #ThanksOTN

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in News
OTN Appreciation Day The idea came from Our Oracle ACE Director ( the Mind ) Tim Hall Here 

 OTN : Oracle Technology network  or let me say OTN gather all of us no matter where you live in this world ? only one thing gather us our love to OTN.

OTN done so much things to all of us, one of things i love and most of the people in the community know that is Fusion middleware and i will write about Oracle Weblogic 12cR2 the documentation available here 

Oracle Weblogic 12cR2 comes with different features such as the following:-

  • Multitenancy Support
  • Continuous Availability
  • Java EE 7 Support
  • JDK 8 Certification
  • Docker Certification
  • Runtime Improvements
  • Manageability Improvements
  • Documentation Update History for Release 12.2.1
  • Standards Support, Supported Configurations, and WebLogic Server Compatibility
  • Deprecated Functionality (WebLogic Server 12.2.1)
  • Removed Functionality and Components

If will talk about them all it will be documentation not blog post therefore i will choose 2 or 3 topics.

  • Docker Certification

Oracle WebLogic Server 12.2.1 is certified to run inside a Docker container. Docker is a Linux-based container technology that enables you to quickly create lightweight clustered and non-clustered WebLogic Server domain configurations on a single host OS or virtual machines, for either development or production environments.

you can have access to github here and how to Run Weblogic on Docker check here 

  • Multitenancy Support

Multitenancy in WebLogic Server provides a sharable infrastructure for use by multiple organizations. These organizations are a conceptual grouping of your own choosing, which you can think of as tenants. By allowing one domain to support multiple tenants, Weblogic Server Multitenant improves density and achieves a more efficient use of resources while eliminating the hurdles typically present when trying to share multiple applications: runtime cross-application impact, security differences, data co-mingling, and administrative challenges.

 WebLogic Server MT enables an end to end multitenant infrastructure, including multitenancy from the load balancer to the middle tier and cache tier, and to the database tier. WebLogic Server MT extends the Oracle WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition and Oracle WebLogic Suite products

Alot of different features.

Thanks
Osama

Difference between OIM , OAM And OID ?

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in Fusion Middleware
OAM :- Oracle Access manager 

Regarding to Oracle Documentation

Oracle Access Management is a Java, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)-based enterprise-level security application that provides a full range of Web-perimeter security functions and Web single sign-on services including identity context, authentication and authorization; policy administration; testing; logging; auditing; and more. It leverages shared platform services including session management, Identity Context, risk analytic, and auditing, and provides restricted access to confidential information.

From the above picture as you see OAM provides single point to control all resource grants in an enterprise where multiple applications exist on different platform.

You can refer to oracle Doc here.

OAM provides:

  • Single Sign On (SSO)
  • Authentication
  • Authorization
  • Access Auditing
  • Policy Administration
There is more but you can refer to the above documentation.
OIM : Oracle Identity manager 
enables enterprises to manage the entire user life cycle across all enterprise resources both within and beyond a firewall. An Oracle identity management solution provides a mechanism for implementing the user management aspects of a corporate policy. It can also be a means to audit users and their access privileges.
The best best example to understand OIM is employee.
if the new employee joining the company the HR handle everything for him emails, permission … etc, with OIM it’s different and all of this can be done automatically
Refer to Oracle Documentation here 
Finally OID : Oracle Internet Directory.
Simply it’s LDAP, 
An online directory is a specialized database that stores and retrieves collections of information about objects. The information can represent any resources that require management, for example:

Employee names, titles, and security credentials
Information about partners
Information about shared resources such as conference rooms and printers.
The information in the directory is available to different clients, such as single sign-on solutions, email clients, and database applications. Clients communicate with a directory server by means of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). Oracle Internet Directory is an LDAP directory that uses an Oracle Database for storage.
OID Oracle Documentation here
