My latest contribution to the Oracle Scene journal is available at here. This article looks at the evolution of APIs, and a look at modern API Gateway capabilities. The article uses an analogy to explian the capabilities in a non-techie way.
In addition to my article the team I’m part of get a mention for their wins at this years Partner of the Year awards.

Microsoft have developed a feature called ‘Continue on PC‘ which in principle is a great step which allows you to send content from your IOS or Android phone. In many respects the idea is like the IOS Airdrop in capability. This is to say you could start reading a web page on your mobile device and then send the page to your desktop.
A great idea, and when it works its a reasonable experience. There are some real issues though. The first grouch is that when sharing a web page, the content is presented on the desktop using Microsoft Edge, not your preferred browser.
More disappointing is that install the solution the device has to be able to receive a text message. As a result unless your tablet has mobile connection it can’t be configured to use the solution.

I will be presenting at the UKOUG Conference this year as an Oracle Ace and Snr Consultant from a award winning Partner of the Year. I’ll be speaking about:
I also have colleagues from Capgemini covering IaaS and SaaS among other things. I hope that we see you in Birmingham. Full details of my sessions :
In this session the presenters will talk about several applications of Integration Cloud Service (ICS) with customers from Capgemini. Whilst presenting the use cases, the reasoning for adopting ICS over other integration options will be explained and some of the design considerations that had to be addressed in the application of ICS. Whilst looking at the example cases, factors involved in deciding which iPaaS offering to adopt based on needs.
This session will be presented by Phil Wilkins one of the authors of the book Implementing Oracle Integration Cloud Service and supporting blog.
Whilst microservices are mainstream thinking, many organisations make significant long term investments in application containers such as WebLogic and can be resistant to moving on from such investments. So how do we realise the microservice thinking with such constraints? This presentation looks at several approaches that can allow us to leverage microservice thinking without sacrificing the existing investment.
Oracle Messaging Cloud Service is an often-overlooked service in the family of iPaaS options, but why? So, what makes it worth considering and makes it more contemporary than JMS with Java Cloud Service? This presentation will look at what differentiates MCS from JCS and Event Hub and others and does it offer that makes it distinct and worthwhile option?
