This guide describes the functional interoperability of Application Integration Architecture (AIA) pre-built integrations. This chapter includes a functional interoperability matrix that lists the interoperable integrations included in the AIA 11.1 release.
This chapter includes the following sections:
A single AIA release contains multiple pre-built integrations, enabling customers to deploy multiple integrations on a single AIA instance (cluster) if desired. Functional interoperability is defined as the ability to deploy two or more integrations on the same AIA instance (cluster) and for the services provided by the integrations to work together to fulfill end-to-end business processes. Functionally interoperable integrations have also been tested together by AIA Development.
Depending on the deployment size, mainly driven by throughput and availability requirements, Oracle recommends that tier 1 and 2 customers split up the different integrations in separate AIA instances (clusters). This document refers specifically to deployments where multiple pre-built integrations are deployed on a single AIA instance, therefore requiring functional interoperability.
Each of the integrations has been designed to support a specific set of source and target applications. As delivered, the routing rules for each of these integrations point to specific target applications. However, when a customer deploys multiple integrations, these routing rules must be modified so that the integrations can meaningfully support interoperability and produce the desired functional outcome.
This document describes the integrations that can potentially be deployed at the same site. Wherever applicable, recommendations are given for the best practices flow for these integrations to work together. In addition, routing rule changes that you must make to suit the best practices flow are provided.
Additional changes must be made to the routing rules to interface these integrations with additional applications that are not supported by the integrations as delivered.
For more information about creating and using routing rules, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite, "Creating Oracle Mediator Routing Rules."
Before embarking on your interoperability project, ensure that you have installed the latest versions and patches for each product.
For more information about versions and patches, download the latest version of the Oracle Application Integration Architecture Installation and Upgrade Guide for Pre-Built Integrations available on Oracle Technology Network. This guide is continually updated.
Depending on the sequence in which pre-built integrations (or patches) are deployed, certain artifacts (for example, routing rules or DVMs) may be overwritten or returned to their original values by the deployment process.
For more information about deployment dependencies, download the most recent Oracle Application Integration Architecture Installation and Upgrade Guide for Pre-Built Integrations available on Oracle Technology Network. This guide is continually updated.
Not all of the integrations that are marked as interoperable in the table below have chapters in this guide. Only those integrations that require manual changes (like routing rule changes) or that must follow certain guidelines to interoperate have chapters in this guide.
Table 1-1 provides a list of the Oracle AIA integrations along with the integrations with which they are functionally interoperable:
