Oracle Integration Cloud: Building Integrations That Survive Production · Module 13 · Monitoring, tracking and alerting
Lab briefing · Make a failure visible in five minutes
Lesson 136 of 175 · 2 min
Add tracking, alerting and a heartbeat to an existing flow, then BREAK IT THREE WAYS and TIME how long each takes to surface. The timing is the exercise. "We have monitoring" is a claim; "a dead schedule surfaces in 36 hours and a rejected invoice in 24" is a measurement, and it is the only thing that tells you whether the design is finished. BUILD THE THREE FIRST. A tracking variable carrying a business identifier — and note that it applies only to runs AFTER you add it, per Lesson 2. Alerting routed by who can act, firing when retries are exhausted rather than at the first attempt. A heartbeat asking whether the flow produced an instance in its expected window. THEN BREAK IT THREE WAYS, because the three failure classes surface through three different mechanisms. ONE: MAKE A RECORD FAIL. A bad value, an unreachable target. This should surface…
