Features
in this Release of the OFS AAI Extension Pack
In this release of the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Extension Pack (OFS
AAIEP) 8.0.8.x, the following advanced features and functionalities are
available:
· Distributed Processing
Capabilities
· Analytic
Pipeline and Process Models
· Content
Management Interoperability Services
Distributed Processing Capabilities
The Distributed Activation Manager Based Processing has the following features in OFS
AAIEP:
· User Interface is managed within the
Web Application Container as all the required libraries and jars are deployed
under the Web Application Container Nodes.
· ICC Interactive Processing occurs
within the ICC Server and therefore, there is delinking of ICC with the
Application Container.
· Enables Batch Processes that must be
distributed over multiple nodes by running multiple Activation Manager (Job
Agent).
For more information, see the Distributed Activation Manager (AM) Based Processing
Section in the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Administration and
Configuration Guide.
Analytic Pipeline and
Process Models
The Oracle Financial Services Process
Modelling Framework (PMF) has been enhanced to bring additional capabilities
which are described as follows.
· Supports interleaving of automated
paths or swim-lanes with Human Decision Tasks such as approval of computes
before progressing with further computes.
· Categorization of Pipelines
This release application categorizes and updates the pipeline types
appropriately depending on the nature of tasks that are being orchestrated for
the following Pipelines:
§ Workflow Pipeline
§ Run Pipeline
§ Sub-Run Pipeline
§ Business Process Pipeline
For more information, see the Categorization of Pipelines Section
in the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Process Modelling
Framework Orchestration Guide.
§ Run pipeline enables choreography of
analytical jobs or Run Pipeline.
§ Workflow Pipeline enables
choreography of human decisions, automated system tasks, and external calls.
§ Analytical or Business Process
Pipelines enable the interleaving of automated paths through the choreography
of analytical tasks with human decision tasks. These pipelines can be
interleaved with swim lanes within a Process Model Orchestration.
For more information about
the preceding features, see the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Process Modelling
Framework Orchestration Guide.
Content
Management Interoperability
Services
The Content Management
Interoperability Services (CMIS) is an OASIS Standard enabling information
sharing between different Content Management Systems. Document Management
Features can be configured to interface with the CMIS Services to perform
various operations such as document upload, download, and search. The documents
are stored in the CMIS Repository.
For more information, see the Content
Management Integration Section in the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Administration and
Configuration Guide.
Event-Based Orchestration
This brings the capability to trigger
further execution paths based on the occurrence of an event.
The Event Framework integrated into
PMF is an Event-driven Messaging Framework that uses Apache Kafka (messaging
server) to process information asynchronously and in near real-time. Producers
that are either External Applications or PMF Internal Processes, send messages
(notify about an event occurrence) to Kafka Topic(s). Consumers, which are
internal processes within PMF that are choreographed within the pipeline, read
the messages from Kafka Topic(s) and execute other events or activities
configured in the PMF Pipelines. The framework uses the REST Transfer Protocol
to send messages and the JSON Data format to construct the messages.
The Consumer and Producer Widgets are
enabled on the PMF Canvas on the application of this release. This allows users
to perform event-based orchestration within PMF.
For more information about the
preceding features, see the Oracle
Financial Services Analytical Applications Infrastructure Process Modelling
Framework Orchestration Guide.
