#ICYMI: Data integration is a challenge that keeps getting more difficult. It’s no surprise considering the explosion of cloud-based tools, the proliferation of devices that consume and produce information, and the way information is shared between systems and from systems to humans. Plus, IDC predicts that the volume of data will reach around 40 Zettabytes (1 billion Terabytes equals 1 Zettabyte) by 2020 — and that 90 percent of it will be unstructured.

This rapid growth of data is making legacy data integration technology nearly unusable. https://goo.gl/WUH8k8

Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service allows defining external REST service connections. In this post, I will explain how to implement query logic against such service. The connection is defined for ADF BC REST service.

Wizard provides an option to add query parameters: both static and dynamic. I have set one static parameter only Data=true, to return data only from the service. Also, I have created multiple dynamic parameters, the one used in this use case — q parameter. This parameter accepts query expression to filter data. Later in VBCS action chain, I will assign a value to this parameter, and service will be re-executed to bring filtered data: https://goo.gl/c3NNjc
