Validate Payment

Building up on my previous blog post.
Typical scenario: Validate Payment service

                                                                                                   High Level Design

Ingridients for the Design soup:
1. Docker
2. Oracle Application Gateway - OAG
3. Oracle Service Bus - OSB

I won't delve into Docker as it is pretty straightforward to install and configure.
Pick your distribution: CentOS, OEL etc.
OAG is the topic of the next blog post :)
OSB is running in the Docker containers - HA, DR
OSB service configuration is pretty straighforward as well and fairly typical:
1. Create Business Service pointing to the real ValidatePayment Composite app running on SOA infrastructure cluster.
2. Create Pipeline
3. Create Proxy Service

Now Service Bus is acting as a router and simple transformer here.
SOA composite (BPEL/ Mediator) is acting as an orchestrator and enricher.

                                                                                      OSB Proxy Service Configuration

The implementation is of medium complexity and there is nothing to add here.

I have seen many implementations of the same service in Banking and Finance projects and most of the time it is overworked to the point of disbelief :)

My approach is KISS.
