Training Thursdays: Linux Containers in Oracle Linux Training

Linux Containers allow you to run multiple user-space versions of Linux on the same host without the need of a hypervisor. You can isolate environments and control how resources are allocated without the virtualization overhead. Containers can be useful for running different copies of application configurations on the same server, running multiple versions of Oracle Linux on the same server, creating sandbox environments for testing and development, and for controlling the resources allocated to user environments. You can also use Btrfs subvolumes as a way to quickly create containers. 

Learn about Linux Containers and many other topics by taking the Oracle Linux Advanced Administration training. You can take the Oracle Linux 7: Advanced Administration training as a:

Rusia reemplazará el software de Microsoft por software propio

Fuente: fayerwayer.com

El presidente Vladimir Putin ya no quiere que su país dependa de tecnologías extranjeras, debido a la extensión política que perdura con Estados Unidos y Europa.

A raíz de la tensión con Estados Unidos y el continente europeo que perdura desde el 2014 tras la anexión de Crimea a Rusia, el país del presidente Vladimir Putin busca reducir la dependencia al software extranjero, como los programas de ofimática que ofrece Microsoft, reemplazándolo por software local.

El ayuntamiento de Moscú comenzará la transición al software propio con 6.000 computadoras, cifra que se extenderá hasta 600 mil equipos. El software que será reemplazado es Exchange Server y el cliente de correo Outlook, ambos de Microsoft, por un sistema de correo desarrollado por la compañía rusa New Cloud Technologies e instalado por la portadora estatal Rostelecom PJSC, según información de Bloomberg Technology.

Parte de esta decisión tardía del presidente Putin se debe a las medidas que Estados Unidos implementó en Crimea, además de las dudas que persisten con respecto a la confianza del software desarrollado por empresas norteamericanas. El mercado ruso supone USD$3.000 millones de dólares que no sólo se le escapará a Microsoft, sino también a compañías como Oracle y SAP SE.

De hecho, la empresa de medios estatales Rossiya Segodnya y el gobierno regional de Moscú ya reemplazaron a Oracle como sistema gestor de base de datos por la alternativa de código abierto PostgreSQL. Por si fuera poco para Moscú, también reemplazó el sistema de vigilancia desarrollado por Cisco Systems por uno propio, informó Artem Yermolaev, quien dirige la tecnología de información en la capital rusa.

Actualmente, las entidades gubernamentales rusas invierten alrededor de USD$295 millones de dólares al año en software extranjero, según comenta Nikolay Nikiforov, ministro de comunicaciones. Por fortuna, ya cuentan con una lista de 2.000programas que servirán como reemplazo para las empresas de carácter estatal.

Además, el gobierno de Rusia no sólo querría dejar de usar tecnología extranjera, sino también dificultar su competencia en el país al incrementar los impuestos. Las empresas estadounidenses serían las más afectadas con este incremento que beneficiaría a las empresas tecnológica locales, como Yandex y Mail.ru, pues el dinero de los impuestos sería invertido en software local.

A partir de 2017, las instituciones gubernamentales serán presionadas por el Servicio Federal Antimonopolio, la Oficina del Fiscal General y la Cámara de Auditoría para dejar de usar software extranjero, una medida que difícilmente sería desechada, aún si la tensión política terminara, debido al costo de la transición.

DSTv27 Timezone Patches Available for E-Business Suite 12.1

Hourglass icon
If your E-Business Suite Release environment is configured to support Daylight Saving Time (DST) or international time zones, it's important to keep your timezone definition files up-to-date. They were last changed in November 2015 and released as DSTv25.


DSTv27 is now available and certified with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1. The DSTv27 update includes the timezone information from the IANA tzdata 2016f.  It is cumulative: it includes all previous Oracle DST updates.

Is Your Apps Environment Affected?
When a country or region changes DST rules or their time zone definitions, your Oracle E-Business Suite environment will require patching if:
  • Your Oracle E-Business Suite environment is located in the affected country or region OR
  • Your Oracle E-Business Suite environment is located outside the affected country or region but you conduct business or have customers or suppliers in the affected country or region
The latest DSTv27 timezone definition file is cumulative and includes all DST changes released in earlier time zone definition files. DSTv27 includes changes to the following timezones since the DSTv24 release:
  • Asia/Novosibirsk
  • America/Cayman
  • Asia/Chita
  • Asia/Tehran,
  • Haiti,
  • Palestine,
  • Azerbaijan,
  • Chile
  • America/Caracas
  • Asia/Magadan
What Patches Are Required?

In case you haven't been following our previous time zone or Daylight Saving Time (DST)-related articles, international timezone definitions for E-Business Suite environments are captured in a series of patches for the database and application tier servers in your environment. The actual scope and number of patches that need to be applied depend on whether you've applied previous DST or timezone-related patches. Some sysadmins have remarked to me that it generally takes more time to read the various timezone documents than it takes to apply these patches, but your mileage may vary.

Proactive backports of DST upgrade patches to all Oracle E-Business Suite tiers and platforms are not created and supplied by default. If you need this DST release and an appropriate patch is not currently available, raise a service request through support providing a business case with your version requirements.
The following Note identifies the various components in your E-Business Suite environment that may need DST patches:
Pending Certification 
Our certification of this DST timezone patch with Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 is currently underway.

Oracle's Revenue Recognition rules prohibit us from discussing certification and release dates, but you're welcome to monitor or subscribe to this blog. I'll post updates here as soon as soon as they're available.

Seguridad y Computación Cognitiva

Los sistemas cognitivos en seguridad, te permiten hacer la ingesta de una enorme riqueza de información generada por el ser humano diariamente. Existen cerca de 2000 blogs de seguridad que generan más de 500 historias diarias. Se publican más de 30 artículos académicos y más de 25 informes de vulnerabilidad diarios.

Son más de 2 millones de palabras diarias; cuando un ser humano promedio, puede leer y comprender cerca de 150 palabras por minuto. Se nos hace imposible alcanzar el conocimiento de dicha información y estamos desperdiciando una gran cantidad de experiencias.

La computación del conocimiento o computación cognitiva, es un modelo de entendimiento, razonamiento y aprendizaje profundo, que permite tener un análisis más abierto de esta información.

Aquí tenemos tema para estudio y disertación.

Microsoft Edge Certified with EBS 12.1 and 12.2

Microsoft Edge Logo
By Steven Chan - EBS-Oracle

I am very pleased to announce that Microsoft Edge is certified as a new browser for Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 and 12.2.  Edge can be used to access EBS Self-Service Web Applications (SSWA) -- i.e. the web-based HTML products in Oracle E-Business Suite that use OA Framework (OAF).


EBS Prerequisites for Edge
No Windows or desktop patches are needed for enabling Edge compatibility with E-Business Suite 12.1 or 12.2.
A small number of E-Business Suite server-side patches are required.  See:
Can EBS Forms run in Edge?
No. Microsoft Edge does not support plug-ins.  For details, see:
The Java JRE is a mandatory prerequisite for Forms-based products in E-Business Suite. Since Edge does not support plug-ins, the Java JRE plug-in does not work with this browser. 
E-Business Suite products that use Oracle Forms can run on Internet Explorer 11 and Firefox ESR on Windows desktops, and Safari on Mac desktop clients.
What about Java Web Start?
We are testing prototypes with EBS Forms-based products using Java Web Start.  Once this work is completed, it is likely that it will be possible to run Forms-based products even when using browsers such as Edge.  See:
This work is going well, and we are currently working on security and polishing user interface issues. I'll post updates on this blog as soon as they're available.
Does Edge work with EBS 11i or 12.0?
No. You can download existing patches for EBS 11i and 12.0, but these EBS releases are now in Sustaining Support. We do not produce new certifications for products in Sustaining Support. 
Tour end-users should continue to use IE 11, Firefox ESR, or Safari if you are running EBS 11i or 12.0.

What is SOA 12c ? by Tutorial Diary

By Juergenkress-Oracle on Sep 23, 2016

clip_image002
Oracle SOA Suite 12c is new version of SOA Suite tool from Oracle. Oracle has introduced lot of new features in this new version. This new version is based upon 4 themes as show below. First two themes (Developer productivity and Industrial SOA) comes as outcome of user/developers feedback and other two themes (Mobile and Cloud) introduced as per industry trend.

SOA 12c Themes

Developer Productivity

This theme is outcome of the community that currently using SOA Suite 11g. Oracle has introduced couple of improvements in this version based upon the feedback from that community. As the name suggest, this theme helps developer to improve their productivity and that comes from the new features introduced.

Industrial SOA

This theme is also a outcome of the community that currently using SOA Suite 11g. Oracle has introduced couple of improvements in this version based upon the feedback from that community.

Mobile & Cloud

These themes has been introduced by seeing current industry trend. Currently everyone talking about mobile & cloud enablement that comes under these themes.

Major Enhancements in SOA 12c

Below are the major enhancements done in this new version (SOA 12c).

• Earlier Service Bus is separate tool from SOA Suite tool and we use to have Eclipse as IDE for service bus development. In this 12c version, Service Bus become part of SOA 12c only i.e. we can do Service Bus development using JDeveloper only, there is no need to use Eclipse anymore. 
• As Service Bus become part of SOA 12c so all the adapters becomes accessible to Service Bus also. 
• ESS (Enterprise Service Scheduler) is new component introduced in this version that provide scheduling capabilities. 
• 1 Single Installer has been introduced that can used to install all the components like Database, Weblogic, SOA Suite, Service Bus etc. 
• MFT (Managed File Transfer) has been introduced that does not come by default with SOA 12c but this can be downloaded as separate package that helps to do file transfer.

• Free License for developer on single machine. Read the complete article here.

Prepare Now For Your SQL OCA Certification - NEW

Earn a core OCA credential on your path to Database Administrator or PL/SQL Developer certifications, by passing exam 1Z0-071 Oracle Database SQL.

Released earlier this year, this certification fills a gap in the offerings that fulfill the SQL prerequisite in core Database Administrator and PL/SQL Developer paths. Until now, these offerings included two non-proctored SQL fundamentals exams (1Z0-051 and 1Z0-061) that do not result in certification by themselves and a more in depth SQL Expert exam (1Z0-047) that covers topic areas that may not show up very often in the day to day activities of a SQL Developer. SQL knowledge is essential to the Database Administrator role as well as that of the PL/SQL Developer. The new Oracle Database SQL Certified Associate credential gives a broader, more comprehensive view of SQL without dipping into more difficult, seldom-used features.


Passing this exam is a win/win if you are pursuing a path that includes a SQL requirement. You earn two valuable certifications.

Even if your plans don't currently include an additional layer of certification, this credential proves fluency in and a solid understanding of SQL language, data modeling and using SQL to create and manipulate tables in an Oracle Database.
