Process Deployment Example

Let us now show how we deploy a BPEL process on the Oracle BPEL Server. We will assume that Oracle BPEL Process Manager has been successfully installed according to the installation instructions and that it uses the default port 9700. If another port has been selected during installation, the examples have to be modified accordingly.

We will use the Business Travel BPEL process example that we have developed in Chapters 3 and 4. The travel example is a simplified business process that selects the best airline ticket offer. To refresh our memory, let us have a look at the process activity diagram:

In the previous chapters we developed the BPEL code for the example; this consists of a Travel.bpel file with the source code and the Travel.wsdl file where the WSDL definitions are stored. We will not show the source of these files here as they have been already shown in previous chapters. They can also be downloaded from http://www.packtpub.com.
