WSM gateway roadmap
Sep 28 2009, 9:46 AM EDT
We have been running a POC on installing WSM gateway in dmz-zone, making sure authentication/authorization is done before incoming requests are forwarded to internal systems.And until Jul 24th this post was all we had on WSM gateway: Will there be a gateway post 11gR1? Yes, we are working on it. Meanwhile, you can deploy OWSM 10gR3 gateway. But on Jul 24th this entry was added: When will WSM Gateway in 11g be available? WSM 11g Gateway is not part of the planned releases in the next 12 months. Timeframe beyond that can't be shared with the customer. Meanwhile, Oracle sales can co-sell Gateway from one of our ecosystem partners - Vordel, Sonoa, Intel, Layer7. More info on partner gateway is available on external Oracle IdM ecosystem site and internal idm.us site. You can contact Vikas Jain directly for any info on partner ecosystem and contact details. Could you please elaborate a bit on the consequences of this decision. What are the alternatives when the two requirements are: 1. Wrap web services in standardized LDAP authenticate/authorize, typical WSM functionality 2. Reject unauthenticated requests before they hit the backend soa platform If WSM gateway roadmap is not decided, customer will translate this into a decision, and look for alternatives. This kind of left-turn on a product roadmap should maybe stand out a bit more than in a wiki note? Would the pragmatic approach be to pull WSM components together inside SOA suite, to simplify upgrade from 10.* to 11g. As I understand the agents inside Weblogic server are taking over the WSM gateway role of 10.* 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
