How J2CA Adapters Fit in an SOA World: A Real-World Case Study

Overview

Service-Oriented Architecture represents a fundamental shift in the way new applications are being designed and developed, and the way in which they are being integrated with existing legacy systems and business applications. J2EE Connector Architecture (J2CA) complements Web Services and BPEL in an SOA world to facilitate enterprise integration. Being J2EE 1.4 compliant, Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3) supports J2CA and other SOA standards and solutions, provides the industry's most complete, productive, open, and mission critical Service-Oriented Architecture platform. This white paper gives an overview of the development and integration experience with BeanConnect on Oracle Application Server, covering areas such as connection pooling, transaction, deployment, management, and Web Services integration.
