Oracle Enterprise Gateway 11g Secures SOA Deployments
To help enterprises secure their SOA deployments, Oracle has unveiled Oracle Enterprise
Gateway 11 g, which secures, accelerates,
integrates, and routes XML, Web services,
and other types of data.
Oracle Enterprise Gateway offers out-of-the-box integration with Oracle SOA Suite
11 g, Oracle SOA governance, Oracle Identity
Management 11 g, and Oracle Enterprise
Manager. It includes demilitarized-zone-class
security for SOA and cloud environments;
XML processing that enables SOA and cloud
applications to offload resource-intensive
operations; an open, standards-based archi-
tecture that plugs into third-party platforms
and environments; and XML connectivity and
security capabilities that safeguard traffic
between heterogeneous environments.
“Oracle is the only SOA and identity
management vendor to offer comprehen-
sive threat mitigation, identity propagation,
secure connectivity, and compliance for SOA
environments,” says Amit Jasuja, vice presi-
dent of development, identity management,
and security products at Oracle. “Using
Oracle Enterprise Gateway, our customers
have enhanced security and flexibility to
confidently extend their enterprise data-
center into the cloud.”

Oracle Updates Enterprise Performance Management System
Oracle Expands Integrations for Sun ZFS Storage Appliance
Oracle has announced three new integrations with the Sun ZFS Storage Appliance,
its family of high-performance, high-density
storage systems.
First, the appliance now directly connects
to the Oracle Exadata InfiniBand fabric. This
simplifies deployments and can accelerate
backup and recovery
times by more than 50
percent compared to
traditional network-
attached storage systems.
Second, Oracle Virtual
Desktop Infrastructure
now integrates with
the Sun ZFS Storage
Appliance using rapid
iSCSI provisioning. This
automates desktop pro-
visioning and accelerates
virtual desktop deployments.
Third, Oracle Secure Backup works with Sun
ZFS Storage Appliance backup and recovery
in conjunction with Oracle’s Storage Tek tape
libraries. This combination brings together
unified storage backup and tape.
“Oracle’s Sun ZFS Storage Appliance
delivers compelling value for customers on
three major fronts: best-in-class management, with DTrace analytics and hybrid
storage pools; a highly scalable architecture
using integrated flash combined with the
Oracle Solaris operating system; and seamless integration with Oracle applications,”
says Scott Tracy, senior director of flash
and disk products at Oracle. “Engineered
with Oracle software, the Sun ZFS Storage
Appliance offers customers a mature storage
solution they can trust.”
