Make high performance auditable determinations
Decide whether to use the generic or specific data model for batch processing
The Oracle Determinations Server provides a high performance and robust XML/SOAP service. It allows you to manage and deploy your rules to a single centralized service. The XML interface means that a wide range of enterprise applications can use Policy Automation.
The key features of the Oracle Determinations Server are:
The Oracle Determinations Server offers two modes of leveraging the Policy Automation Runtime components:
The Assess Services are provided in two forms, Generic and Specific. Each of these forms have their own WSDL and service endpoints; for example, if I deploy MyRulebase to the Oracle Determinations Server, it will create the following two sets of services:
The difference between the two services is that the Specific service has a WSDL and Schema specifically generated to suit the rulebase, whereas the generic service uses the same schema for every rulebase.
The Assess and GetScreen services can make use of the Specific Schema. Because the Specific schema is more meaningful, it is recommended that you use Specific services when using Rulebase operations.
The session data for a specific request is different from generic session data. To see the difference between generic and specific, see the following assess request message samples: Sample Generic and Specific Request
In addition to the native Java and .NET code API’s, the Interview Service provides the capacity leverage the Interview technology via an XML API. Like the Assess Service, the Determinations Server provides an instance of the Interview Service for each deployed rulebase.
The endpoint of the Interview Service for the MyRulebase rulebase is:
http://localhost:8080/det-server-102/interview/soap/MyRulebase
and the WSDL for that service can be found at
http://localhost:8080/det-server-102/interview/soap/MyRulebase?wsdl
More information and examples of the format of the Interview Service messages can be found in the topics in the Interview Service section.
