How can we use SOAP UI to test ATG search

The call from the ATG commerce instance ( Estore instance ) to the search engine is done using the SOAP protocol. Read more about this architecture @ http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2011/11/atg-search-architectural-flow-search.html. If you have a SOAP UI tool (get it from @ http://www.soapui.org/), you could test the request/response from the search engine.

You could find the wsdl for this SOAP in the folder in which your ATG search engine is installed. Below screen shot has the deatils of the wsdl :


To call the search engine you need to know the port in which the search engine is running. You could get it from the SearchEngineService component of the commerce instance @ /dyn/admin/nucleus/atg/search/routing/SearchEngineService/. 


Once you have these details, you could call the search engine with a sample request and a query string to get the response.

ATG Search - search engine tuning settings

In this blog, I am going to list the best tuning settings for ATG Search engine. The AESoapConfig.xml, AESoapWaspConfig.xml  and AEConfig.xml are the xmls referred below and you can find it @  <ATG_DIR>\<Searchx.x>\SearchEngine\<operating_system>\bin\ folder. (1)  Make sure that the AESoapConfig.xml's rwTimeout is less than or equal to routing's readTimeoutMs. You could find the routing's readTimeoutMs @ atg\search\routing\SearchEngineService component.               rwTimeout is the  length of time in seconds to wait before a read or write operation times out on an active connection. The number can be decreased to improve performance. However, a value that is too low could cause slow connections to be prematurely closed. (2)  Adjust the number of engine threads to match the number of CPUs available to the engine. Note that the minimal value for maxThreads and maxSpar...

ATG : Oracle started new discussion forum for ATG

Oracle has started a new ATG discussion forum on oracle discussion forums.  It has a main ATG section and is divided into technical and business categories. You can access the url   http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=503 .  After Oracle acquired ATG, this was much expected and we can hope this forum might give us a better chance to discuss our ATG doubts and more people will come and discuss about ATG.
