Oracle SOA Cloud Service (SOA CS) is a cloud-based platform for building and deploying integration applications in the cloud. It includes a number of built-in adapters, which are used to connect with various technology systems such as databases, messaging systems, and other enterprise applications.

When using one of these technology adapters in a composite application deployed in SOA CS, there are several approaches for facilitating connectivity to on-premises applications and systems. Here are the two valid approaches:

C. SOA on-premises connectivity agent: This approach involves installing and configuring the SOA on-premises connectivity agent on the on-premises system. The agent acts as a bridge between the on-premises system and the cloud-based SOA CS. The agent communicates with the on-premises system and passes the data to the cloud-based SOA CS using secure and encrypted channels. This approach provides secure and reliable connectivity between the cloud-based and on-premises systems.

E. SSH tunnel: This approach involves creating an SSH tunnel between the on-premises system and the cloud-based SOA CS. An SSH tunnel is a secure channel between two systems that can be used to transfer data securely. To create an SSH tunnel, you need to configure the on-premises system to allow incoming SSH connections and then use an SSH client to create a tunnel to the cloud-based SOA CS. This approach provides secure and encrypted connectivity between the cloud-based and on-premises systems.

The other options mentioned in the question are not valid approaches for facilitating connectivity to on-premises applications and systems when using one of these technology adapters in a composite application deployed in SOA CS.

A. WLST script: WLST (WebLogic Scripting Tool) is a command-line tool used to manage Oracle WebLogic Server environments. It is not used for connectivity between the cloud-based and on-premises systems.

B. PL/SQL procedure: PL/SQL is a procedural language used to write SQL scripts in Oracle databases. It is not used for connectivity between the cloud-based and on-premises systems.

D. VPN service: A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a service used to create a secure and encrypted connection between two systems over the internet. However, it is not used for connectivity between the cloud-based and on-premises systems when using one of these technology adapters in a composite application deployed in SOA CS.

Therefore, the valid approaches for facilitating connectivity to on-premises applications and systems when using one of these technology adapters in a composite application deployed in SOA CS are the SOA on-premises connectivity agent and SSH tunnel.
