Security

The WebLogic administrator must create a user for exclusive use by your application and the Oracle Empirica Topics web service.

The Oracle Empirica Topics web service username and password credentials are provisioned on the Oracle Empirica Topics WebLogic server. Your application then sets this username and password along with the standard WS-SECURITY Username Token Policy as part of every web service call. The Oracle Empirica Topics server validates access to the Topics web service using these credentials. The Oracle Empirica Topics server can return an exception if the web service credentials are not correct or the Username Token Policy has not been set. The Oracle Empirica Topics web service will then not be available to your application.
