# 221 Oracle Fusion Middleware Partner Community Forum XVI

I attended the above last week in Faro, Portugal. Great event, as usual with Juergen Kress as the master of cermonies. I am always impressed by his organizational skills as well as his dedication and out and out professionalism. Juergen - take a bow!

I ran the 2 day BPM 11g PS6 workshop along with my colleagues David Read and Angelo Santagata.
The feedback from the partners was great - very positive. So I am looking forward to blogging about all the cool new functionality/features which are about to be unleashed.

So watch this space...

#219 SOA Made Simple 4-6

Continuing my review -

Chapter 4 - Classification of services -

In this chapter the authors go into more detail on Elementary services, Composire Services and Process services and their relationship to the 3 architecture layers - Business, Information and Technology.This chapter also discusses aggregation vs orchestration - and contains many real world examples to illustrate all concepts discussed.

Chapter 5 - The SOA Platform

This chapter discusses the building blocks of a SOA platform - Registry/Repository, ESB, Identity Management, BPM etc.
Please see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/overview/index.html
for a description of the Oracle platform.

This is an excellent chapter and prepares one well for looking at implementation and maybe Antony Reynold's book  - Oracle SOA Suite 11g Developer's Cookbook

Chapter 6 - Solution Architectures 

This chapter looks at some of the SOA platforms available - Oracle, IBM, MSFT.
Guess which one comes out on top?
