DB Adapter Singleton behaviour in High Availability Environment

There was a problem which one can face in high availability environment (clustered) . 

We had two clustered which were configured to be synchronous to idealised HA situation. But this causes one design issue in that Integration. 
The issue starts coming in our DB Adapter that now the DB Adapter starting polling Staging table(OEBS)  in parallel with the initialised interval. Cluster1 and Cluster2 starts initiating DB Adapter instances in parallel and if we increase the clusters form 2 to 3. The same way three instances of pooling components started. Which leads to a situation in which if we increase the clusters in future from 2 to 50 then in parallel 50 instances of pooling component will be created in parallel and will hit the third party application in parallel. This could be a problem for a target system if it doesn't supports parallel processing.
The solution to this problem was that we need a concept of singleton pattern in our pooling component / DB Adapter.
There's a property of Inbound endpoint lifecycle support within Adapters called Singleton.
To enable this feature for high availability environment for a given inbound adapter endpoint, one must add the JCA service binding property in the within the element and set it to a value of as shows.


Singleton Property in composite.xml
<property name="singleton">true</property>

Oracle SOA 12C rest adapter with Custom HTTP headers

Most existing web applications are connected through web services, which are commonly known as SOAP services. More and more users are relying on mobile devices for communication, and they’re looking for lighter ways to access enterprise information on the go. REST services are the answer for the mobile device platform, because they get rapid responses and fast access to data. Oracle SOA Suite 12 c  provides a complete set of service infrastructure components for designing, deploying, and managing composite applications. Oracle SOA Suite 12 c  enables services to be created, managed, and orchestrated into composite applications and business processes. Some time we have need to send HTTP headers in REST service, In OSB we use header component and add what ever is needed but in oracle SOA 12C it's little bit different. Let see how we can do it. Create one SOA Application. Create one SOA Sample project inside SOA Application. Go to composite and drag drop REST ...

Hi all,   today i experienced a little task to change the "Production mode" settings to FALSE in weblogic domain because due to production mode web service test client was not working.
