Integrating OTM & Oracle Apps with BPEL PM 10g version

[naveengupta4s]

Hi,

I have installed following things...

OTM version 5.5 CU3
Oracle Apps Release 12
Oracle Application Server 10g
BPEL Process Manager version 10g (Oracle SOA suite)

In order to implement the OTM/Oracle Apps Integration, I have read that I need to apply few patches and need to deploy few BPEL processes to the process manager, but a note says that integration is supported only for BPEL process manager version 10.1.2.0.2

Is there a way out of integrating OTM using BPEl process manager 10g?

Thanks & Regards,
Naveen

Naveen,

You can use any middleware that you like to integrate with OTM -- the BPEL Process manager is only required for the pre-packaged Oracle EBS / OTM integration processes.

In fact, most clients using OTM are utilizing custom integration and only a few are integrating with EBS (most are other systems like home-grown, SAP, etc).

Here are some of the other integration middleware packages that I'm aware of (from another post - http://www.otmfaq.com/forums/f24/opi...n-engines-363/)

Proven, though expensive:

• webMethods
• Tibco
• IBM MQ

Capable, but complex:

• IBM WebSphere Integration Server

Reliable and less expensive:

• HP Mercator
• Sun SeeBeyond eGate

Inexpensive, though reported to have volume issues:

• Microsoft BizTalk

Newer (capable) technologies, though unproven:

• Oracle BPEL / Oracle ESB
• Active Endpoints BPEL

Cheap, but limited capabilities:

• OTM Python Scripts (included w/ OTM)

Hope this helps,
Chris
