IBM® WebSphere® Business Monitor, Version 6.0 software helps to provide the feedback and analysis you need to improve and optimize your business processes. You can monitor business processes in real time, using management dashboards. You can receive reports that show you critical information in a format that suits your needs.
WebSphere Business Monitor enables you to monitor the runtime behavior of business processes through a Web application deployed on IBM WebSphere Process Server, Version 6.0. WebSphere Business Monitor receives and processes events in the Common Base Event (CBE) format, a standards-based format that is included as part of WebSphere Process Server. WebSphere Business Monitor also uses the Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) support provided by WebSphere Process Server to send and receive events.
WebSphere Business Monitor dashboard components integrate with WebSphere Portal to provide a predefined set of configurable views that are implemented using portlets.
Monitor business processes across your organization
Data monitoring is based on a business measures model that includes entries designed to correlate runtime events with a specific instance, as well as entries designed to specify situations. WebSphere Business Monitor obtains the business measures model from the original business model by editing entries that are essential for monitoring purposes, including correlation of events, map calculations, and detecting situations. You can edit the model using the Business Measures editor. The Adaptive Action Manager receives situation information from the Monitor Server and takes appropriate actions for a given situation. These actions can be sending e-mail and dashboard alerts, instituting corrective actions in the process server, and invoking Web services. The Monitor Server manages KPIs and metrics, along with other relevant information from the business measures model that you define through WebSphere Business Modeler. It also provides event correlation and situation detection that trigger the Adaptive Action Manager.
