Abstract:	Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) has been identified by Oracle as a key technology for the future. Oracle's latest versions of the Application Server have all included SOA technologies and its specifications for Oracle Application Server 11g all indicate that Oracle is committed to SOA. As Oracle's development tools (JDeveloper, Application Express, Portal) focus more and more on Web-centric implementations, the Application Server will become a staple in most organizations committed to Oracle technologies. As such, understanding and being able to implement BPEL-based solutions will become a prerequisite for developers, administrators and system architects. This presentation will explain Oracle's BPEL implementation and how to use it effectively when architecting Web-based solutions.
