Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for supporting the use of connectors in an application server environment. The method can provide, a plurality of deployable resources which can be used within the application server environment, and one or more partitions, wherein each partition provides an administrative and runtime subdivision of the domain. The methods and systems can associate one or more deployed partition-level resource adapters to the one or more partitions, each of the one or more deployed partition-level resource adapters associated with one of the one or more partitions. Finally, the methods and systems can determine, by a connector container, a partition scope of one of the one or more deployed partition-level resource adapters.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for multi-tenancy enablement of enterprise Java™ applications using resource proxies and application tenancy context. In according with an embodiment, the system and method can provide a plurality of deployable resources which can be used within the application server environment, and one or more application deployments, wherein each application deployment includes at least one of tenant-specific code and shared-tenant code. The system and method can further determine an application tenancy context of a thread, and point to one or more resource proxies, each of the one or more resource proxies being configurable to communicate with a tenant specific resource. Each of the one or more resource proxies can use the application tenancy context of a thread to communicate with a tenant specific resource.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for supporting proxy data sources in a multitenant application server environment, such as Java SE and Java EE environments. In multitenant environments, various tenants can have data sources that an administrative application can access without needing to know the actual data sources. A system and method provide a proxy data source mechanism such that applications in Java EE and Java SE environments can access tenant data sources, each tenant data source having a JNDI name that is tenant or partition specific, through the proxy data source, the proxy data source comprising a JNDI name which is not tenant or partition specific. The proxy data source can also provide for switching between tenant data sources based upon a caller context.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing service resources for consumption by an application deployed to a service in a cloud environment. A service definition package (SDP) for the service can specify a dependency on a provider, and include association rules that define actions to be taken with regard to a runtime of the provider. When the service is provisioned, a service resource type which is derived from a provider SDP can be associated with the service. As a result of the association, a service resource can be automatically created from the service resource type in accordance with the association rules, to provide resources for consumption by the application. In accordance with an embodiment, the provider SDP can include a plurality of feature sets associated with different sets of configurable properties, which allows different provider types or service resource types to be created.

Abstract: A system and method for orchestration of services for use with a cloud computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a cloud platform enables provisioning of enterprise software applications within a cloud environment, including packaging enterprise applications as service definition packages (SDP), and instantiating the services using service management engines (SME). In an embodiment, an orchestration engine communicates with a plurality of SMEs to control the flow of service creation, provider dependency resolution, association of services and providers, and the life-cycle management of services within the cloud platform.
