Oracle SOA Suite has a comprehensive software infrastructure including multiple engines enabling functionality for BPEL, BPM, Business Rules and Mediator components; Java Component Architecture (JCA) for SOA Composite life-cycle management, Messaging, and Caching for availability, and more.. All are running on Oracle WebLogic Server to build, deploy and manage Service-Oriented Architecture(SOA) services, process and applications. Although SOA Suite provides common capabilities and consistent tooling for development, deployment and administration, as well as support for end-to-end lifecycle management reducing maintenance complexity, management of such a comprehensive software requires administrators to be knowledgeable with functionality of numerous engines, components and administration best practices.The Oracle SOA Suite 11g Administrator's Handbook provides all the information required for mastering the SOA tools and components to meet the challenges of management of such a system. It shortens learning curve and help avoid common problems, provides most essential information on WebLogic Server relevant for SOA Suite Administrators in order to successfully configure, manage and troubleshoot. The information is provided in a way easy to find, easy to understand and easy to practice (using the samples provided throughout the book).This book covers all the SOA Suite administration relevant topics including configuration and monitoring of SOA infrastructure, managing composite applications life-cycle, tuning SOA engines, troubleshooting, and SOA security policies, patching, upgrading and installation.I have been working with Oracle WebLogic Server and SOA Suite for several years - This book is the only one that I know so far that provides information covering across the products and components included in SOA Suite in an integrated way. I highly recommend this book to anyone working with Oracle SOA Suite 11g in an administrator, a developer or an architect capacity.

The best book available in the online market. The shipping was bit late and i didn't expect the long delay from Amazon especially. But the book is worth waiting for those who are into SOA and Fusion Middleware.

This book is a must-have for SOA Suite Administrators!It clearly hand-picks and elaborates on the key items to know and consider while managing simple to complex SOA Suite 11g environments.The structure and content of the book provides a good overview of the tools, technologies, tips and tricks to manage such environments, and has the right level of detail.The content of this book has been built from the extensive experience that the authors have in the field.I have found most "Administrators Guide" style books to usually serve as a good reference guide to lookup on demand. This book goes one step further and also serves as a great read from Page 1 to the very end without an information overload.Saves you a lot of time you spend on search engines, forums and blogs to get to the information you need!

Packt's new Oracle SOA Suite 11g Administrator's Handbook by Ahmed Aboulnaga and Arun Pareek is packed full of essential information for the Oracle SOA administrator, in fact I would go so far as to say that it should be required reading for administrators who are new the the Oracle SOA Suite platform. I think that reading it would greatly shorten the learning curve and help new administrators avoid many common problems or points of confusion.More so than any other single piece of content that I have seen on the topic, it provides the information that a SOA administrator needs to know in order to successfully configure, manage, monitor, troubleshoot and backup an Oracle SOA environment.It is clear and to the point, it presents just the information that you need, and the information is easy to find. It is not cluttered up with a whole bunch of extra information you don't need. It is detailed and technical - providing information that you can use. I think the book is not only a great introduction for a new administrator who needs to get a feel for Oracle SOA Suite, but it is also a great reference volume to keep on hand, even for experienced administrators.It is obvious when reading the book that the authors have extensive experience and that they know what is important to their audience. I have been working with Oracle SOA Suite for several years now, since 10g days, and I am one of the authors of the official Oracle SOA Suite Certification question base, and even I learned things from this book that I did not know.The book covers topics like managing the SOA infrastructure, managing composite applications, monitoring SOA Suite, tuning, configuration and administration, troubleshooting, security policies, managing MDS and the dehydrations store and backup and recovery.The bonus online chapter covers important issues like patching, upgrading from 10g, cluster configuration and silent (scripted) installation.I for one will be keeping this book on my book shelf and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in or working with Oracle SOA Suite, in an administration capacity, or who just wants to know more about the product in general.

Oracle SOA Suite 11g Administrator's Handbook: This book will quickly become your constant companion in achieving the reliability and security you want in your day to day administration of Oracle SOA Suite 11g. Covers both broad concepts and real-world implementation.
