Oracle Java Cloud & ADF (Middleware Fusion)

The Java Cloud Service (JCS) production application the is the focus of this article includes invoice processing,
warehouse stock management and production line management. This application was implemented for a candy
production and distribution startup company in Lithuania.
The startup’s primary goal in this endeavor was to minimize and simplify the IT infrastructure’s complexity and
investment, which is why JCS was chosen. Oracle ADF is integrated into the Oracle PaaS Cloud offering. JCS offers
a cloud-based deployment environment, which is preconfigured with support for Oracle ADF features. Oracle
ADF provides a powerful functionality for business logic implementation in the ADF BC layer. It allows exposing
of ADF BC objects and methods through REST services.
While ADF support was one of the key decision points for using JCS, the fact that Oracle JET can also be served
from JCS instance makes it really convenient and enables us to run server-side business logic and serve clientside content from the same cloud instance.
