The architecture of WebSphere® Business Monitor 6.0.1 comprises a set
of internal components and a group of external components.
Model obchodních ukazatelůs, which are defined
in WebSphere Business
Modeler, are a key part
of monitoring. In a model obchodních ukazatelů,
you define the measuring points, event filters, measurements, their correlations,
and the sources of business data. When the model obchodních ukazatelů is
complete, you export it to WebSphere Business Monitor. WebSphere Business
Monitor recognizes the models to be monitored and the measurements to be captured
from incoming events.
Dashboard views display Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are created
from the collected events, based on a model, to create graphical representations
of those values through. Notifications are generated about situations and
actions, according to a defined condition, to perform corrective actions and
detect and prevent failures during operation.
All these actions are achieved through a set of internal components:
- Monitor server: Receives events, handles monitoring-context instances,
and stores and persists runtime and historical metrics and KPI values of those
instances.
- Dashboards: Display the monitored data. They provide a predefined
set of views that can be customized to support different representations of
data and offer enhanced data analysis.
- Databases: Provide the Monitor server with information for event
processing. They also provide the dashboard client with information for populating
views. Information is transferred across the databases through another monitor
component, the Replication manager.
- Adaptive Action manager: Provides different types of business responses
resulting from situations expressed within the incoming events.
- Schema Generator: Generates database scripts to be used for creating
databases tables in State, Runtime, and Historical databases. These databases
contain the modely obchodních ukazatelů data.
The Schema Generator also generates the DB2® Cube Views™ metadata description of
the historical database and generates the metadata mappings for the replication
manager.
Other external components integral to the monitor operation are:
- Business Measures Editor:(BME) It
is used to create the model obchodních ukazatelů that defines what should be
monitored, for example, monitoring contexts, key performance indicators, metrics,
and business situations.
- Common Event Infrastructure: Provides event management by receiving
events from event sources and transferring them to the event consumers that
have expressed interest in those events.
- DB2 Alphablox
and DB2 Cube
Views™: Provide enhanced data analysis for dashboards.
