API Platform Cloud Service – Plans by Niall Commiskey

image

According to the docs, a plan is – an abstraction between applications (the clients consuming APIs) and APIs to allow fine-grained access entitlements to all APIs that are part of a plan.

All APIs are now accessed via plans, in other words, you cannot register applications to use individual APIs outside of a plan. To re-iterate, developers will create an application and register
this with a plan. All this is done in the APIP CS Developer Portal.

There is a new role in APIP CS to manage plans – Plan Manager. I login to the Management Portal as such – Read the complete article here.

Teaching How to use Terraform to automate Provisioning of Oracle API Platform by Carlos Rodriguez Iturria

image

Previously, I showed how to use Terraform and PSM CLI to spin up a “Build Server” and use it to provision Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) environments. You can find this blog here.

In this blog I am going to show you how to do the same, but to provision Oracle API Platform environments.

The approach that I will be following is the same:

Before we start
  • I encourage you to read the previous blogs, which I am building on top.
  • You need an Oracle Cloud account, if you don’t have one yet, request a trial, they are free.
Create your Build Server:

I already explained with step by step instructions how to build your “Build Server” in a previous blog. Please refer to this blog if you have not yet created your “Build Server”.

The way I create the “Build Server” allows you to deploy any Oracle PaaS, this is a list of some of the available services in my Oracle Cloud environment: Read the complete article here.

· Happier Users and IT During the 1960s and ’70s, there was much debate on whether the US should be investing many billions of dollars in its space program versus more “pragmatic” concerns. One powerful argument for that investment was that the space program would yield a “dividend” of ancillary benefits to society that would far outweigh the direct investment. Consider just one example: the global GPS systems. The cloud dividend debate has taken a similar arc over the last decade—weighing the benefits that cloud users get beyond the service itself. In my latest Forbes column, I detail three of those dividends and propose that there’s now a fourth important one: put simply, using cloud services makes people happy.

Blockchain Simplifies International Money Transfers

imageAn emerging solution’s promise and potential for fintech By Vivek Alwayn

Anyone who has transferred money internationally between banks knows that the process often takes too long and costs too much. Now, with the advent of blockchain technology, transferring money should become simpler and faster for customers while also generating more revenue for the banks.

The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), a global cooperative that provides secure financial messaging services, is currently working on a blockchain-based global payment initiative that will provide secure, end-to-end tracking for global financial transfers.

At this point, 30 banks are live on the blockchain platform, and SWIFT plans to eventually connect more than 11,000 licensed banks, financial institutions, and corporations across more than 200 countries. SWIFT says the platform will also enable future real-time regulatory compliance reporting to central banks and law enforcement agencies worldwide.

The SWIFT platform is built on a cloud-based Hyperledger Fabric, which allows each member bank to have a cloud-based peer node that interfaces with the SWIFT central node. The central node provides transactional consensus between the two banks conducting the transfer. Read the complete article here.

Podcast: Blockchain: Beyond Bitcoin By: Bob Rhubart

Blockchain originally gained attention thanks to its connection to Bitcoin. But blockchain has emerged from under the crypto-currency’s shadow to become a powerful trend in enterprise IT — and something that should be on every developer’s radar.  For this program we’ve assembled a panel of blockchain experts to discuss the technology’s impact, examine some use cases, and offer suggestions for developers who want to learn more in order to take advantage of the opportunities blockchain represents. Listen to the podcast here.  For more information please see the Blockchain partner resource kit here

Jarvis Pizzeria: Fourth step in Implementing the Order Processing, Decision Model by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind & Marc Kuijpers

image 

In our previous blog we gave an overview of the various type of decisions that are available for a Decision Model. In this blog we show by means of an example that Decision Models can also be used for making complex decisions. We are going to make a decision model that determines the order of preparation of the pizzas in an order.
The order of preparation is determined by the baking time, the total preparation time of each pizza and the number of available ovens (1 pizza per oven). Let’s assume that we have an order for the following 9 pizzas:

  1. Small Margherita
  2. Large Margherita
  3. Small Pepperoni
  4. Medium Pepperoni
  5. Medium Pepperoni
  6. Large Pepperoni
  7. Small Quarttro Stagioni
  8. Medium Quarttro Stagioni
  9. Large Quarttro Stagioni

Expected outcome

The pizzas with the longest baking time are prepared first. When pizzas have the same baking time, the total preparation time is also taken into account to determine the order. As a result, to determine the sort order we first need to determine the baking time and total preparation time for each pizza.

Because not all pizzas can be prepared at the same time, pizzas that are not in the oven will have a waiting time. Once we have established the order, we can also determine the waiting time per pizza. We explain this with the help of the figure below. Read the complete article here.
