While Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) makes possible the creation
of rich, composite applications, it has introduced new complexities in
managing the operation of these dynamic systems, which decrease the
business benefits potential of SOA. Because traditional systems
management tools approach the problem from either a server or network
centric view they do not have the fine grain visibility into the
composite SOA application to be able to proactively pinpoint the
performance problems in the business process context. Each part of the
overall system can appear healthy while individual user transactions can
be suffering: these tools simply become a set of diagnostics to be used
in after-the-fact trouble shooting. Management of the new enterprise
applications requires a greater level of insight through consolidation
and visualization of a large amount of complex information.
The Solution is Tidal™ Intersperse, Which Simplifies Management,
Measurement and Analysis of SOA Application Performance.
Tidal Intersperse is a comprehensive solution for SOA monitoring and
SOA management for Java and .NET frameworks. In contrast to traditional
systems management tools, Tidal Intersperse combines the runtime
monitoring across multiple application servers to create detailed
end-to-end transaction monitoring within a single tool, enabling
proactive detection of problems, fast root cause analysis, and provide
for recovery to create self-healing solutions for SOA deployments.
Tidal Intersperse’s range of capabilities include rapid discovery of
servers and application components, performance monitoring at both the
component (detailed) and web service (message payload) levels,
performance analysis and notification through detailed reporting and
composite SLA management, and control for automating corrective action
to create self-healing solutions.
Tidal Intersperse is different because it utilizes standard Java
Management Extensions (JMX) for all its monitoring information, making
it a non-invasive, low overhead solution. Intersperse has a distributed
architecture based on SOA and moves the overhead of complex processing,
such as transaction tracing, composite SLA management, and correlation
and context analysis off the managed application server and into the
Intersperse management server. Additionally, unlike older generation
runtime monitoring solutions that can require a shutdown / restart cycle
to turn on detailed SOA monitoring or respond to changes or updates made
to the SOA environment, the non-invasive architecture of Intersperse
allows operators to add instrumentation “on-the-fly”, zooming in on
performance detail with zero down-time.
Tidal Intersperse not only supports .NET framework based applications
but it also supports Apache Tomcat, BEA WebLogic, IBM WebSphere, Redhat
JBoss, and SAP NetWeaver.
