Benefits of Upgrading

Oracle Integration 3 is the next generation of the Oracle Integration platform. The upgrade to Oracle Integration 3 delivers a modern and intuitive user interface and improved performance. Additionally, the latest features will be delivered only to Oracle Integration 3.

Here's a look at some of the new features in Oracle Integration 3, but more new features are added in every release. For details on all the new features, see What's New for Oracle Integration:
Feature Description
Connect to private resources Secure traffic to private resources that are in your virtual cloud network (VCN) using a private endpoint. With a private endpoint, all traffic goes through a private channel that is set up within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and never goes over the public internet.

See Connect to Private Resources, and Adapters that Support Connecting to Private Endpoints.

Deployment of new connectivity agents is easier and more reliable The connectivity agent now requires zero configuration, thanks to the replacement of user credentials with a system-generated OAuth 2.0 token-based authentication.

See Create an Agent Group.

Increased payload size for adapters The supported sizes for some payloads have increased.
  • You can process 100 MB structured payloads and 50 MB payloads with the connectivity agent with these adapters:
    • REST and SOAP SaaS-based adapters
    • Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter
    • Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter
    • Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter
    • FTP Adapter
  • The stage file action can process 100 MB structured payloads.

For more details, see Service Limits.

Inbound polling support without the connectivity agent You can poll the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse database, Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing database, and Oracle Database Cloud Service database without using the connectivity agent.

Use projects to manage and monitor integration assets Use projects to develop, deploy, and monitor related integrations and their components from a single workspace. The number of projects you create and the integrations you include in each project is up to you. You can use role-based access control (RBAC) to define which users and groups can edit, view, and monitor a project.

See About Integration Projects and Design, Manage, and Monitor Integrations in Projects.

Invoke Oracle Cloud Infrastructure functions directly from an integration Directly invoke Oracle Cloud Infrastructure functions from an integration in the integration canvas.

See Invoke Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Functions from integrations with the OCI Function Action.

Publish and subscribe to events in integrations Create events in Oracle Integration and then publish the events in integrations. You can then create an integration that subscribes to the events.

See Create Integrations to Publish and Subscribe to Events and Publish Events in an Integration with a Publish Event Action.

Use parallel actions in integrations to improve performance You can use a parallel action in integrations to process tasks in parallel to improve integration performance and response times. With a parallel action, the path of an integration is split into multiple branches. Each branch is processed in parallel and messages are sent to each service endpoint in parallel. When all tasks are completed, all branches are synchronized at their termination points in the parallel action, and the main path of the integration is resumed.

See Process Tasks in Parallel with a Parallel Action.

Self-diagnose event delivery for Oracle Fusion Applications Self-diagnose the delivery of business events between Oracle Fusion Applications and Oracle Integration, such as determining if delivery issues are occurring in Oracle Fusion Applications or Oracle Integration. You can also perform some management tasks, such as retrying the delivery of business events that have failed.

See Diagnose and Manage Event-Based Oracle Fusion Applications Integrations.

New adapters
B2B for Oracle Integration enhancements
Build your own adapters with the Rapid Adapter Builder The Rapid Adapter Builder transforms the adapter experience in Oracle Integration by allowing you to build an adapter for any application that exposes REST APIs.

Oracle provides a Visual Studio Code extension for the Rapid Adapter Builder. Use the extension to develop, validate, and publish an adapter to an Oracle Integration instance.

See Learn About the Rapid Adapter Builder in Oracle Integration.

Test an integration from the canvas You can test REST Adapter trigger connection-based integrations and scheduled integrations with the Run integration icon button in the integration canvas. This button automatically activates your integration with the tracing level set to debug and lets you specify request details from inside the integration canvas. This capability simplifies integration testing and eliminates the need to separately exit the canvas, activate the integration and set the tracing level, and access the Configure and run page to specify your request details.

See Test Integrations from Inside the Integration Canvas.

Private endpoint - OAuth 2.0 support For private endpoints, an OAuth provider is now supported if it is privately hosted.
Associate an instance with a secondary domain If your tenancy uses identity domains, you can now associate an Oracle Integration 3 instance with a secondary identity domain—an identity domain other than the one you're signed into. This allows you to manage all your instances in your tenancy from one domain, rather than having to sign into each domain to manage the associated instances.

See Creating an Oracle Integration Instance.
