Oracle B2B Design patterns

• B2B Gate way(Async): Use B2B as a gateway for all trading partner integration. Gateway solution should persist data in EIS( using File,DB, JMS) and B2B processing system can take it further.
• Fault tolerant
• Increase Reuse
• Extendable
• Guaranteed delivery can be designed
• Scalable
• Time to market

• B2B processing hub(Async): Will take care of end-to-end processing of B2B messages
• Handles each message uniquely
• Would require complex error handling mechanism
• Single point of failure

• B2B Message forwarding(Async): Combination of B2B Gateway and Processing system; B2B gateway should work as explained above however B2B processing should be design to handle further processing of B2B message.
• Moduler
• Extendable
• Scalable 
• Reusable  
• Time to market

• Orchestration: Is similar to B2B processing hub but it should be sync
• Extend B2B processing beyond EDI
• Fault and error handling
• Reusable
• Moduler

• Gateway+orchestration

• B2B Translator: Use of B2B is limited to translating the EDI's.

• B2B Poller: Advance File adapter(poll file and parse it to XML).

Known issues with B2B: 

• De-batch the EDI and in some cases requirement can be to process whole batch, in such cases there aggregator component.
• Out of box XML translation(Sync), it is very handy however again it processes only one EDI txn at one time.
• B2B can not be used as webservice. 

Oracle SOA 12c and B2B 12 C installtion

Understanding the installation

For B2B you would require following:
1. Oracle B2B
2. Oracle SOA and BPM ( pre-requisite)
3. Oracle Weblogic and Coherence ( pre-requisite)
4. SOA infrastructure ( pre-requisite)
5. Database ( pre-requisite)
6. JDK ( pre-requisite)
7. Jdeveloper ( pre-requisite for design time)

Installation mode:
1. Development and learning: you can use quick start which have bundled all with java DB
2. Production: you need all the distribution listed

Distributions can be downloaded from Oracle software delivery cloud:  edelivery.oracle.com

Binaries:

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_b2b_Disk1_1of1.tar

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_b2b_Disk1_1of1.zip

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_b2bhealthcare_2.jar

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_infrastructure.jar

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_osb.jar

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_soa.jar

fmw_12.1.3.0.0_wls.jar

jdk-7u60-linux-x64.tar(used)

jdk-7u80-linux-x84.tar.gz

server-jre-8u31-linux-x64.tar


Steps for jdk
jdk-7u60-linux-x64.tar(used)
Extract:
tar -xvf jdk-7u60-linux-x64.tar
Move it to desired location:

mv /source directory/sourcefolder /target directory
mv /home/jdk1.xx /home/java

and you will get jdk in /home/java/jdk1.xx

Steps for Infrastructure:
export JAVA_HOME=<jdk location>; here it would be /home/java/jdk1.xx

<JAVA_HOME>/bin/java -d64 -jar fmw_12.1.3.0.0_infrastructure.jar

• Provide oraInventory location(for first time only, for other select the existing)
• Welcome page
• Installation location: choose your location(the installation user must have write access to the location, to create Oracle home)
• Installation type: Fusion Middleware Infrastructure
• Prerequisite checks
• Specify security updates, specify details in case you need it.
• Installation progress, next (you may save the response file for your verification)
• Installation complete(shows you two things)
• Installation Location
• Oracle Home location
• Log file location
• Feature set installed successfully
• Click Finish and you are done.

Further steps: I did not time to update rest, however you may use oracle's documentation, apologies! or you can drop me a message if I can be help.
