Step 6 Launching & Monitoring ESB Process

• Remote Launch of Business Process
• Monitoring state of Application and all its associated service instances
• Runtime hooks to determine state of service
• Real-time data debugging
• Business Process Monitoring
  • SNMP, JMX etc
  • Monitoring of Servers

• Remote Launch of ESB Services
• Service Instantiation
  • On-demand/On-Event Instantiation
  • Auto Instantiation
• Re-Launch of Business Process
  • Auto re-launch on different set of nodes
  • Rules based re-launch of business process

• Local Queue Monitoring and Management
• Identify performance/scalability bottlenecks in Application
• Identify parallel flows in Application
  
  
  

• Runtime tracing and Logging
• Sub-Flows to handle Error conditions
• Alert Handlers
  
  
  

Real-time data debugging

• SNMP, JMX etc
• Monitoring of Servers
  
  
  

Step 7 Change Management & Versioning

• Dynamic Extensions to Business process
  • Static vs. Dynamic
  • Impact Analysis
  • Extend Business process to include new services
  • Extend Business process to include data services with different data formats
  • Optimize Business process for performance, scalability
  • Extend Business processes to handle network configuration changes
• Dynamic changes to Business process
• Service and Application Versioning
• Configuration Management
  • Moving from one stage to another (QA to Deployment)
  • Moving from one environment to another (customer to internal testing)
• Extension to Business process
  • Updating Data Consistency Application to include the data centerin San Francisco
• Change to Business Process
  • Flexibility to adapt to new technologies (WebServiceinstead of a C++ stand alone Application)

• Manage and maintain multiple versions of services along with Labels
• Quickly allow migration from one service version to another
  
  
  

• Moving from one stage to another (QA to Deployment)
• Moving from one environment to another (internal to client deployment)
  
  
  

Putting Theory To Practice

Technology hype is confusing the issues without providing a clear path forward

• Need to choose standards that work today and will evolve for future
• Solve the real integration problem more than a Proof of Concepts
• Must build incrementally on top of existing systems

• Business Persons View
  • High-level model of business process flow
• IT Level View
  • Implementation flow differs substantially from business process view
• Impedance mismatch creates fundamental problems
  • Implementations have too many "moving parts"
  • Business-level change requirements difficult and time-consuming to implement
