 Kalan presented an overview of Workday Integrations

...

  • Industry best practice
  • Simplifies maintenance
  • Promotes code reuse
  • Stability
  • Manageability of complex applications

Touch Points - all integrations are made of 2 or more touch points

Standardized Internal File Format

Benefits:

  • allows maximum reuse of programs
  • simplifies addition of future programs

Integration Types

Not long ago, the text book anser was that the only valid SOA communication is SOAP based web services.

In practice this is not realistic

Not all systems support web service...

In practice there are a number of communication systes that are commonly used

Oracle SOA will support all of these

  1. Web Services (SOAP or REST)
  2. Queues
  3. File Drop

Recommendations:

  1. Use SOAP web services for all communication outside of the Enterprise
  2. Standardize on either REST or SOAP fo web services within the Enterprise
  3. Most communications will be quick with reasonable sized docs Use Web services fr these
  4. for very large docs use files
  5. for batch processing use ques
  6. more to add

Oracle SOA is an Integration Suite.

See Dustin's slide deck for diagrams and detailed notes.

Workday Tenants

CU is using 5 tenants currently

How do we manage CU environments to match Workday tenant upgrades?  We need a test environment synced up with Workday.

Dustin - what is the backward compatibility plan - Kalan - current - 3 is the current policy

Phil - how does load test get handled

Workday has a 2GB limit on flle extracts and integrations can only run for less than an hr

In bound Workday can only receive 5MB file size

COPY in Steve's Google doc notes here.

One customer out of 200+ wants a user acceptance test environment in place

We will need to plan for testing CU systems when a system (including Workday) is upgraded
