WebCenter Portal 12.2.x.x: Performance Bug in VCR services

During my last project of Oracle WebCenter Portal 12c we have found a performance degradation when using Content Presenter.

As you know, Content Presenter calls the following services which are coming from PortalVCRHelper component:
  • VCR_GET_CONTENT_TYPES: Returns the list of Content Types which are Profiles and Region Definitions defined in WebCenter Content.
  • VCR_GET_CONTENT_TYPE: Returns specific information of the Content Type.
  • VCR_GET_DOCUMENT_BY_NAME: Returns the information of a DOC_INFO + the Content of the Data File (XML content).
On Oracle WebCenter Content 12cR2, Imaging has been embedded into the Content Server as two components:
  • Imaging: Bringing Imaging capabilities to the new Content Manager Task Flow (which is the WCC ADF UI embedded in WebCenter Portal).
  • IpmRepository: The old capabilities of using Imaging as a repository.
Imaging executes some filters in Oracle WebCenter Content which degrades the performance of the VCR calls when the number of Profiles is big enough. This component cannot be disabled as is mandatory for Content Manager Task Flow.

For example, if you have 40 Profiles and 8 Region Definitions the times can be like the following ones:
  • VCR_GET_CONTENT_TYPES around 12-16 seconds to execute
  • VCR_GET_DOCUMENT_BY_NAME: around 2-4 seconds each one
In case of having in the Home Page of your Portal 12 Data Files it is translated to: 16 + 12*4 = 64 seconds to load the Home Page!!.

This bug has been solved after working hard with Oracle Support and exists already a patch :).

Patch 25528107: Slow performance from VCR_GET_CONTENT_TYPES when IPM components are enabled

It will reduce the latency of calling VCR services. However, never forget to Configure Coherence cache as suggested by the A-Team for reduce the VCR calls as much as possible :).

OJET: Build and Deploy in an Application Server

Image
There are some other sources where an Oracle JET Application is packaged and deployed as a WAR in Oracle WebLogic Application Server (Arda Eralp) https://blogs.oracle.com/ardaeralp/deploy-oracle-jet-application-to-weblogic-server (Andrejus Baranovski's) http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2016/07/serving-oracle-jet-application-from.html They may look bit old or maybe because they call directly grunt tasks by using the grunt-cli . In this post I will update a bit these posts in Oracle JET 6.1.0 and the usage of ojet build (instead of calling the grunt tasks) for also building the corresponding WAR file. The example can be found in my GIT repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/ojet-examples Let's start... Install grunt-war module in your Oracle JET Application. npm install grunt-war --save-dev Create a war.js (or call it whatever you want) in /scripts/grunt/config folder under your souce files. This is a sample code inside of it, check https://www.npmjs.com/packag

OJET: Select All options using only Checkboxset

Image
This is an example on how to select all other options by using another oj-checkboxset. GitHub: ojet-checkbockset-select-all The idea is to keep track of the selection and make use of the on-value-changed as described in the following code. self.colorOptions = ko.observableArray([ { id: "blueopt", value: "blue", color: "Blue" }, { id: "greenopt", value: "green", color: "Green" }, { id: "redopt", value: "red", color: "Red" }, { id: "limeopt", value: "lime", color: "Lime" }, { id: "aquaopt", value: "aqua", color: "Aqua" }, ]); self.selectAll = ko.observableArray([]); self.currentColor = ko.observableArray(["red"]); self.selectAllOptionChanged = (event) => { const newSelection = event.detail.value; if (newSelection.indexOf('all')

OFMW: 12.2.1.4 Released

Hi, After a long time waiting for it, the Oracle Fusion Middleware 12.2.1.4 has been finally released. Oracle Fusion Middleware 12.2.1.4 Official Documentation In this post, I will focus on my personal view over the Oracle Fusion Middleware products which I most commonly use over the last 8 years which are the SOA Suite (including BPM and OSB), WebCenter Suite (Portal, Content, Sites), Oracle ADF and Oracle WebLogic Application Server mainly. Certification Matrix As every release, I make a round around the Certification Matrix of every Oracle Fusion Middleware Release to check if the Java JDK accepted has been increased or not. Oracle Certification Matrix for Oracle Fusion Middleware 12.2.1.4 Java However, I found that we are still in the J2SE / J2EE 8 and the maximum certified JDK is Oracle JDK 1.8.0_211+ which means any 1.8.0_xxx if you are using Oracle JDK as the JDK vendor. Database The biggest new is the certification with 18.3+ and 19.3+ of the On-Premise vers
