The Two Biggest Disruptions To The Enterprise

CLOUD Has transformed every facet

of the IT infrastructure

MOBILE Has transformed every facet

of modern society


With Growth Comes Challenges for the Enterprise

Growth

Challenges

No integration across apps & backend systems

Not easily portable to other development environments

Not customizable to your business needs

Lack of secure access

Limited views into productivity… no analytics

Harder to maintain, not upgrade protected

Oracle Mobile Cloud Service – New Features Overview

• Location Aware Services – Define points of interest and query those points using the Location Platform API

• Log in with Microsoft Azure Active Directory credentials – Let your mobile users log on to your apps using their Microsoft Azure Active Directory credentials.

• Simplified Export/Import of Artifacts – MCS 2.0 release greatly simplified export/import of MCS artifacts using packages mechanism

• OAuth and JWT token policies for REST connectors – OAuth and JWT token policies for REST connectors, to help make identify propagation easier

• OOTB Facebook & Corporate SSO Authentication Support – Enabling mobile users to log into your apps using their Facebook or their corporate single-sign on

credentials

• Database Platform API is available from custom code SDK – Database API has been added to the custom code SDK, it’s much easier to add JavaScript calls to it in

your API implementations.

Release 16.2.3 (MCS 2.0) & 16.1.3 (MCS 1.1)

Location Services in MCS


Mobile Application Accelerator (MAX)

• Got 5 minutes?

• Quickly develop mobile application with MAX

• Leverage your MCS assets

• Iteratively develop mobile applications


Location Based Services


Location based services allow mobile developers to exploit the fact they know where mobile users are located in real time, to provide value added contextual information & services beyond maps & address lookups.

Location Based Services • Maps are ubiquitous on mobile

– Mobiles track & map users in real-time

– But apps rarely go beyond providing a location pin or route between locations

• Location shouldn't be seen as a silo

• There's the opportunity to:

– Mashup business data

– Provide location-based-business queries

– Provide location aware services

– Turn on & off services based on locality

– Action processes based on locality


Show what is located within

1km Services

turned on

Services turned off

Place

Place

Place Place

Provide services when entering a

geofence

Provide information when

approaching a beacon

Show message

Basic Scenarios


Show me all the customers in a 2km radius that haven't purchased

from us in 6 months

Location based queries can be mashed with business data to provide unique location based opportunities.

Our customer meeting finished early, it took forever in the traffic to get here & we don't want to waste

our time

Mr. Patient

Patient No: 859442

Date of Birth: 7/Oct/1975 (40 yo)

Medication: >

Patient data is no longer accessible

Proximity based services can enable & disable functions based on the mobile user's location



Core Concepts

Places • Locations of importance

• Shops, bridges, factories

• Demarcated by

– Lat/long, geofence, beacons

• Mobile app:

– What places surround me?

– Have I entered a geofence?

– Am I approaching a beacon?

Assets • Moving objects of value

• Forklifts, printers, truck

• Demarcated by

– Beacons

• Mobile app:

– Where is the asset?

Devices/beacons • iBeacons, altBeacons,

Eddystone

• Identify places and assets

MCS SDK

Native Code


Server Developer Client Developer

Writes native code Query MCS SDK Location API Uses data in native location services


• A static non moving location

– e.g. brick & mortar shop, bridge

• Includes:

– Name, label, description

– Custom attributes allow you to associate business data

• e.g. customer ID, address etc

• Hierarchical places are supported

– e.g. corporate HQ + regional offices

• Define locality by:

1. Optionally define geofence:

–Latitude + longitude + radius

–Or >3 sided polygon

–Each vertex has lat+long

1. Optionally associate device(s):

– iBeacons, altBeacons, Eddystone

Places


• A business asset you want to track

– Something of business value

– Actively moves = ~moving place

– e.g. forklift, hospital bed

• Includes:

– Name, label, desc, custom attributes

• Associate device(s):

– iBeacons, altBeacons, Eddystone

– Future support for RFIDs

Assets


• Beacons are used when

– Can't guarantee GPS signal

– Accuracy is required

– GPS is not available such as indoors

• Device implements Bluetooth 4.0+

– Transmits Bluetooth Low-Energy signal

– Typically transmits unique beacon ID

– Some implementation support data

– Detected by BLE mobile devices

– Mobile app acts on ID as lookup

• From mobile device's perspective

– Monitors for "regions"

• i.e. act of listening for beacon ID

• "Region" is the reach of beacon signal

• OS raises events on region entry/exit

• App logic uses ID to lookup remote beacon registry for data

– vs "Ranging"

• Listen for all beacons within a region

• Includes estimated proximity

• App logic can trigger on proximity

Devices – a.k.a. Beacons


Client SDKs


• Native mobile platform APIs

–Android, iOS, Windows, JS…

• Save hand written REST calls

• Significantly reduces native code

• Prebuilt, tested, optimized

The MCS mobile client SDKs save mobile developers time to focus on the unique mobile app requirements, providing native, optimized APIs to call MCS without coding from the ground up.

MAF MCS Utility Configuration

• Add mafmcsutility.jar to MAF ApplicationController project

• Expose MAF MCS Utility functionality through JavaBean data control in ApplicationController project

– Suggested as best practices

– Data queried from MCS is shared across MAF features if data control is defined in ApplicationController project

• See MAF MCS Utility public sample (aka. MCS tester) for a reference implementation

Example of authentication code:

...

try {

MobileBackendManager mobileBackendManager =

MobileBackendManager.getManager();

MobileBackend mobileBackend =

mobileBackendManager.getDefaultMobileBackend(this);

Authorization authorization = mobileBackend.getAuthorization();

authorization.authenticate(this, email, password, callback);

} catch (ServiceProxyException e) {

Log.d("Exception", "ServiceProxyException");

}

...


Demonstration : Call Authentication API (UMS) (Continued)

Authorization callback function example:

private AuthorizationCallback callback = new AuthorizationCallback() {

@Override

public void onCompletion(ServiceProxyException e) {

showProgress(false);

if (e == null) {

Log.d("Success", "Login success"); // Handle successful login

} else {

Log.d("Failure", "Login failed"); // Handle failed login

}

}

};

Demonstration : Registering the Generic MCS Broadcast Receiver

<application ..>

..

<receiver

android:name="<app package name>.GCMMessageReceiver"

android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />

<category android:name="<app package name>" />

</intent-filter>

</receiver>

<activity..> </activity>

</application>


Demonstration: Registering the Generic MCS Broadcast Receiver

import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;

import android.content.Context;

import android.content.Intent;

import android.util.Log;

public class GCMMessageReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

@Override

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

Log.d("MCS Message", "Received message");

String message = intent.getExtras().getString("alert");

Log.d("MCS Message", "MCS Message = " + message);

}

}


Demonstration: Call Custom API

final GenericCustomCodeClientCallBack genericCustomCodeClientCallBack = new

GenericCustomCodeClientCallBack() {

@Override

public void requestCompleted(CustomHttpResponse response, JSONObject data,

Exception e) {

boolean getResponse = (response.getHttpStatus() >=200 &&

response.getHttpStatus() <300);

// write any logic based on above response

}

};

AuthorizationAgent authorization =

MobileBackendManager.getManager().getDefaultMobileBackend(mActivity).getAuthorizati

on();

authorization.invokeCustomCodeJSONRequest(genericCustomCodeClientCallBack, null,

"TaskApi/tasks", RestClient.HttpMethod.GET);
