Challenges of Creating and Maintaining

E-Business Applications

The common challenges when creating and

maintaining e-business applications are:

You can meet the challenges mentioned above by

leveraging an integrated, complete, and open

e-business platform.

Challenges of Creating and Maintaining E-Business Applications

When you create e-business Web sites, some common challenges that you might encounter are:

• Development related: When you create applications, depending on the requirements,

you must ensure that these applications:

- Meet Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) standards

- Interact directly with other software applications by using Web services

- Can be wireless enabled for rapid access through mobile devices

- Can be integrated with new business processes

• Deployment related: After your application is deployed to the server, it is important

that the server can deliver the appropriate content to users quickly and reliably Some

of the challenges here include availability, scalability, performance, caching, systems management, and user and security management

It is, therefore, very important to leverage a complete and integrated e-business platform for building an e-business solution

Wireless

• OracleAS Wireless provides a simplified development and deployment of applications

in a wireless environment In addition, OracleAS Wireless includes wireless services (such as e-mail) and location-based services that simplify wireless-enabling of

applications and portals

Caching

• Oracle Application Server provides a Web-caching solution with the unique capability

of caching both static and dynamically generated Web content OracleAS Web Cache significantly improves the performance and scalability of heavily loaded Web sites In addition, OracleAS Web Cache provides a number of features to ensure consistent and predictable responses These features include page-fragment caching, Edge Side Includes (ESI) and Edge Side Includes for Java (JESI) support, compression, dynamic content assembly, Web-server load balancing, Web Cache clustering, and failover

Business Intelligence

• Using the Oracle Application Server business intelligence features, you can

dynamically serve personalized content recommendations to both registered and anonymous visitors as they browse your site; perform dynamic, ad hoc query reporting and analysis using a standard Web browser; and publish high-quality, dynamically generated reports on a scalable, secure platform

Integration

• Using Oracle Application Server, you can integrate enterprise applications, trading partners, and Web services, and provide query and transaction access to many

non-Oracle data sources

Availability and Scalability

• Oracle Application Server provides a flexible deployment model that you can use to design your system for high availability and scalability

Management and Security

• Oracle Application Server provides a set of management facilities to simplify Web site administration You can:

- Use Application Server Control to configure and monitor individual Oracle Application Server instances to optimize them for performance and scalability When you need to use command-line interfaces, you can use dcmctl to perform configuration management, and opmnctl to perform process management

- Use encrypted secure sockets layer (SSL) connections, user- and client

certificate–based authentication, and single sign-on across all applications

- Implement an LDAP directory that provides a single repository and

administration environment for user accounts

Trang 20

Oracle Application Server: Overview (continued)

Identity Management

• Using Identity Management, you can centralize user-management tasks and manage password policies in an enterprise setup Identity Management is a viable solution for secure deployment of third-party applications in an Oracle environment These

deployments are based on integrating a secure framework between Oracle products and multiple third-party applications In addition, you can independently deploy Identity Management environments in existing Oracle products, such as the Oracle database, Oracle Collaboration Suite, and Oracle E-Business Suite

Multitiered Model

In a multitiered architecture, Oracle Application Server 10g components reside at different

tiers or layers, which represent hardware layers, with each tier made up of one or more servers In general, the number of tiers and number of servers in each tier vary depending on

the Oracle Application Server 10g implementation

The Oracle Application Server 10g architecture for a multitiered model consists of:

• Client tier: Containing the Web browsers for end users

• Web tier: Containing Oracle HTTP Server and OracleAS Web Cache

• Application server tier: Containing Oracle Application Server 10g

• Database tier: Containing the Oracle database, which can be a single instance or

multiple instances managed by Real Application Clusters (RAC)

Oracle Internet Directory and Security

Oracle Internet Directory is an LDAP server that can be used to store all the credentials required for the enterprise Oracle Internet Directory offers comprehensive and flexible support for directory access control This includes entry-level, attribute-level, and

prescriptive access control, to provide varying levels of security to fit enterprise and service provider needs

Oracle Internet Directory implements three levels of user authentication:

• Anonymous

• Password-based

• Certificate-based, using secure sockets layer (SSL) for authenticated access and data privacy

The Web-based Oracle Delegated Administration Services enables application

administrators to delegate user-management tasks, such as granting or restricting access to a specific directory attribute, entry, group, or naming context to application users

After Oracle Internet Directory is deployed, organizations can use OracleAS Single Sign-On

to provide a single point of validation for user credentials After users sign on successfully,

databases.

OracleAS Infrastructure Installation Types

OracleAS Infrastructure components are grouped into Identity Management components and OracleAS Metadata Repository components This grouping provides you with the flexibility

to install the OracleAS Infrastructure components on multiple computers or databases.For example, you can install OracleAS Metadata Repository on one computer and the

Identity Management components on another computer You can install the Identity

Management components on multiple computers as well

Selecting either the “OracleAS Metadata Repository” or the “OracleAS Metadata

Repository and Identity Management” option causes the Oracle Universal Installer

(Installer) to create a new database and populate it with OracleAS Metadata Repository.When you install only OracleAS Metadata Repository, Application Server Control is not

installed; instead, you can use Oracle Enterprise Manager10g Database Control to manage

OracleAS Metadata Repository

Selecting the Identity Management option requires that you have an existing OracleAS Metadata Repository

You can use an existing database for creating OracleAS Metadata Repository by using the

Installation Types That Require Infrastructure

The J2EE and Web Cache installation type does not require OracleAS Infrastructure

It is necessary to have Identity Management already installed if you intend to use OracleAS Single Sign-On Similarly, you would need OracleAS Metadata Repository installed to use the database-managed application server clustering An application server cluster is a

collection of application server instances with identical configuration and application

deployment Clusters enforce homogeneity among member instances so that a cluster of application server instances can appear and function as a single instance
