what are the real time benefits of migrating to service bus 12c from 11g for an enterprise application? - weblogic

What are the real time benefits of migrating to service bus 12c from 11g for an enterprise application? We are currently using soa suite 11g. One thing which I know is it incorporates the development of services in jdeveloper itself instead of using eclipse.
Also, approximately how much time is required for the migration?

Some of the benefit that I have found is the native support for REST Services and the use of JS for REST end to end services in OSB 12.2.1 and SOA 12.2.1.
The migration time is highly dependant on the number of services you have in both OSB and SOA, but it must be quite simple.

Using ArcGIS Runtime .NET for services

Is it allowed to build a .NET service for ReverseGeoCoding (LocalLocatorTask) which runs on a server?
We would like to build a service which translates GPS-coordinates to addresses using ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET. We are already licensed to use the Standard license needed for LocalLocators.
But now we've heard is not allowed to build server applications, is this true and where can I find this in the terms and conditions?
Thanks,
Frederiek
No it isn't allowed (though I can't find the exact wording) as it basically negates the need for ArcGIS Server or the need for multiple user accounts when the same functionality is deployed as an app.
If you can't use it as an app or use ArcGIS Server / Online directly and really need a windows service then you will need to write your own code to do it. If you can use ArcGIS Server services from the windows service I have a project that manages the REST calls at https://github.com/davetimmins/ArcGIS.PCL
This is currently prohibited by the license agreement, though there is no technical reason why it wouldn't work. It is not tested or certified for services environments by Esri development teams.

SSO between application running on Glassfish 4.1 and one running on Oracle Application Server 10g

I have to implements a single sign on procedure between 2 web applications.
One of them is running on OAS version 10.1.2, developed using JDeveloper 10g, the application uses ADF framework (10.1.2) and Java 1.4. It authenticates users using a JAZN.xml file, so the users/ passwords aren't in database.
The other is a RESTful application running on a Glassfish 4.1 server, developped in Java 8. Each modules are bundled as OSGi bundles. Authentication not implemented yet.
We were planning on using an LDAP server (Oracle Internet Directory, the only one working with ADF 10.1.2) but I can't seem to be able to find clear documentation about it.
I've found http://java2go.blogspot.com/2012/05/oracle-adf-with-sso-definitive-guide.html which is for WebLogic not OAS, and http://sqltech.cl/doc/oas10gR31/web.1013/b28967/adding_security001.htm which is for version 10.1.3
1- Is there a place with more documentation, how-to, on LDAP configuration with ADF 10.1.2?
2- Is it possible to manage Users/password from the app using LDAP authentication or we must connect to LDAP server to change/create users/passwords?
3- what do you think would be a better approach to implement SSO?

What is the difference between generic server and server in weblogic?

I am confused, what is difference between generic web server and web server in weblogic?
Generic server is a special server and run time implementation of base server tooling that can adjust its behavior by a server type definition file. Server type definition files are XML based meta information files that are introduced using "org.eclipse.jst.server.generic.core.serverdefinition" extension point.This document describes the different parts of the server definition files.
WebLogic Server implements Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) version 1.3 technologies (http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/index.html). J2EE is the standard platform for developing multi-tier Enterprise applications based on the Java programming language. The technologies that make up J2EE were developed collaboratively by Sun Microsystems and other software vendors, including BEA Systems.
WebLogic Server J2EE applications are based on standardized, modular components. WebLogic Server provides a complete set of services for those modules and handles many details of application behavior automatically, without requiring programming.

State machine workflow and persistance

I am working on a state machine workflow in 4.0.1 which is called from a WCF service. I am dynamically creating the proxy and calling the activity in workflow.
I am using Oracle as backend.
Can anyone help me to implement persistance for this workflow. I want to persist the workflow to Oracle database or to file system.
Check with DevExpress. They have created an Instance Store provider that supports Oracle.
Devart has developed an Instance Store provider that supports Oracle too.

Oracle weblogic portal

My question may be basic,
What is 'Oracle Weblogic Portal'? Is that a product from Oracle or does it mean a web portal (using J2EE) developed as Weblogic as application server?
From that product's homepage at oracle.com
Oracle WebLogic Portal, formerly BEA WebLogic Portal, is the best-of-breed portal framework for creating highly interactive composite applications in a SOA environment...
It is now an Oracle product, since Oracle bought BEA Systems quite a while ago.
