WebLogic Integration BPM and WebLogic Workshop Interoperability Sample Originally this sample was available on the BEA dev2dev center. An expanded version of this sample is now included in the WebLogic Integration SP2 release. The sample demonstrates how Web services and workflows can exchange messages in a loosely coupled, asynchronous fashion. The sample demonstrates two scenarios where BPM workflows and Workshop Web Services exchange messages using SOAP over HTTP and plain XML over HTTP. For more information, see the WebLogic Integration BPM - Workshop Interoperability Sample. Migration From Earlier Release of WebLogic Integration Information and utilities are provided to help you migrate your applications to WebLogic Integration 7.0 SP2. The following migration paths are available: WebLogic Integration 7.0 SP1 to WebLogic Integration 7.0 SP2 WebLogic Integration 7.0 GA to WebLogic Integration 7.0 SP2 For complete information about migrating your WebLogic Integration applications, see "Migrating Domains Created Using the Configuration Wizard" in the WebLogic Platform Release Notes and "Migration" in the WebLogic Integration Release Notes. What's New in WebLogic Integration 7.0 Support for WebLogic Server 7.0 WebLogic Integration 7.0 supports WebLogic Server 7.0. They are both components of WebLogic Platform 7.0. Support for Creating Custom WebLogic Integration Domains Domain and cluster creation are simplified by a Configuration Wizard that lets you generate domains from WebLogic Integration, business process management (BPM), or enterprise application integration (EAI) domain templates. Based on user queries, the Configuration Wizard generates a domain, server, and enterprise application with the appropriate components pre-configured and assets included. For more information, see: Deploying BEA WebLogic Integration Solutions Using the Configuration Wizard Support for PointBase Database Samples run, out of the box, on the bundled, 100% pure Java relational database management system (RDBMS) from PointBase. For more information, see: Running the B2B Integration Samples Security WebLogic Platform 7.0 provides a redesigned WebLogic security service, on which WebLogic Integration security functionality is built. It includes a Keystore for storing private keys and the public key certificates associated with them. In applications based on previous releases of WebLogic Integration, private keys and the certificates associated with them, were stored on the file system. For more information, see: Using WebLogic Integration Security Implementing Security with B2B Integration Best Practices in Designing Business Process Management (BPM) Workflows Provides guidelines and recommendations for designing WebLogic Integration workflows. For more information, see Best Practices in Designing BPM Workflows.
