Requirements for Oracle Cloud Applications Integration

Oracle Cloud integration enables you to integrate Loftware Enterprise SP with Oracle Cloud applications so that users can drive label printing from Oracle Cloud applications, such as the Oracle Supply Chain Management (SCM) application. You can configure as many Oracle Cloud integrations as your Loftware Enterprise SP license allows, and you must have a separate subscription through Oracle Cloud with an Oracle Integration 3 instance to use the Loftware Enterprise SP Oracle Cloud integration feature.

The Oracle Cloud integration feature is composed of the following components:

  • A provisioned Spectrum Cloud Integration Agent that serves as a communication vehicle between Loftware Enterprise SP and the Oracle Integration Cloud
  • A configured Oracle Cloud integration in Loftware Enterprise SP
  • A configured integration in the OIC that uses the Loftware Adapter for OIC

If you are integrating Loftware Enterprise SP 5.1 with Oracle Cloud applications, you must meet the following requirements.

Component Requirement

Loftware license

Loftware Enterprise SP license that includes Oracle Cloud integration

Oracle Cloud subscription

A separate subscription through Oracle Cloud with an Oracle Integration 3 instance to use the Oracle Cloud integration feature

Note: You must have SCM Cloud and an Oracle Integration Cloud instance running.

Business events

Identify which business events from SCM will drive label printing.

Review data available with selected business events to determine what data comes from SCM and what data must be gathered from other sources for a complete label. The Oracle Cloud integration may be supplemented with additional data sources configured in Loftware Enterprise SP, external to the Oracle Cloud, for a complete label data set.

Requirements for Spectrum Cloud Integration Agent

The Spectrum Cloud Integration Agent serves as a communication vehicle between Loftware Enterprise SP and the Oracle Integration Cloud. It can be installed on a cloud services platform, separate from the Loftware Application Server.

Component Requirement

Cloud services platform

Any cloud services platform, such as the following, to which you can deploy a supported system image:

  • Oracle Cloud (recommended)
  • Amazon Web Services (AWS)

System image to be deployed to cloud services platform

The following must be installed on the server used to create the system image.

  • Apache Tomcat 8.5 (separate from the Loftware Enterprise SP Tomcat instance)
  • Java 1.8
  • Spectrum Cloud Integration Agent
