JD Edwards Advanced Orchestrations Training

Design scalable, high-performance orchestrations and integrate JD Edwards with external systems—without customization.

This JD Edwards Orchestrator training course builds on foundational knowledge and focuses on advanced techniques for performance, integration, and extending JD Edwards functionality using User Defined Objects.

Course Overview

This course is designed for JD Edwards users who already have experience with Orchestrator and want to build more scalable, high-performance solutions.

The Advanced Orchestrations course is designed for participants who already have experience with JD Edwards Orchestrator and want to expand their capabilities to handle more complex and large-scale solutions.

You will learn how to design orchestrations for performance, integrate with external systems, and extend or override business logic without customization using User Defined Objects.

Course Objectives

  • Scale orchestration solutions to handle large datasets

  • Minimize orchestration execution overhead

  • Integrate JD Edwards with external systems

  • Extend and override business logic using (UDOs)

Interactive, Hands-On Learning Approach

This course is delivered using a hands-on, scenario-based approach that builds on real-world JD Edwards use cases.

Participants work through structured exercises that focus on solving practical challenges related to performance, integration, and orchestration design.

Course Structure

  • 4 sessions (4 hours each) delivered over 4 days

  • Instructor-led sessions delivered live via Zoom

  • Concepts introduced through focused demonstrations

  • Hands-on exercises designed to reinforce advanced techniques

  • Step-by-step guidance with opportunities for independent application

Hands-On Exercises

  • Exercises focus on real-world performance, integration, and orchestration design challenges commonly encountered in JD Edwards environments.

  • Participants work through performance optimization and integration challenges

  • Optional extensions allow deeper exploration of advanced techniques

Instructor Support

  • Real-time assistance during sessions

  • Additional one-on-one support available if needed

Course Outline

The course is organized into three major focus areas: orchestration performance, system integration, and extending JD Edwards functionality.

Topics build progressively, with each section reinforcing practical techniques used in real-world JD Edwards implementations.
