1.1.2 Web Services Based Synchronous Deployment Pattern

This topic describes the web services-based synchronous deployment pattern.

The web services deployment pattern will be used in integration scenarios where the external system connecting to Oracle Banking Corporate Lending wants to connect using standards-based, interoperable web services.

This deployment pattern is especially applicable to systems that meet the following broad guidelines:
  • The systems that are not EJB literate that means such systems not capable of establishing connections with Oracle Banking Corporate Lending based on the EJB interface; and/or
  • The systems that prefer to use a standards-based approach

In this deployment pattern, the external system will use the SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages to communicate to the Oracle Banking Corporate Lending web services.

The services displayed by Oracle Banking Corporate Lending are of a Message-based style, the actual request will be in the form of an XML message, but the request will be a Payload within the SOAP message. After the necessary processing is done in Oracle Banking Corporate Lending based on the request, the response is returned to the external system as an XML message which will be a Payload within the response SOAP message. The transaction control for the processing will stay with the Oracle Banking Corporate Lending.
