OER 11g released

Oracle Enterprise Repository (OER) 11g is released and generally available for download now. OER alongwith OSR (UDDI registry), OWSM and EM SOA Mgt Pack Plus comprise Oracle's SOA Governance offering. Of all the new features added in this release of OER, there's one feature around closed loop governance that I would like to discuss in this blog.

Closed loop governance allows architects to review at a high-level how the system and services they designed are behaving in production, and with this knowledge further enhance the services in their subsequent versions. It provides confidence and production assurance to business people that the investments they have put in SOA is actually being put to use.

In this release of OER 11g, high-level performance metrics from Enterprise Manager (EM) and 3rd party products such as Amberpoint are rolled up into OER.

Through the same pattern, do you see a need for rolling up policy attachment info from OWSM into OER?
