English abstract:
An event-based solution that uses events to convey information
to a monitoring tool is well suited to implementing
a non-intrusive monitoring infrastructure. This enables an
SOA system's stakeholders to observe the system aspects of
interest to them. However, implementation of SOA today,
let alone the monitoring infrastructure, is a complex task
due to the heterogeneous environment consisting of multiple
technologies, platforms and components. We propose
an approach for implementing such an event-based SOA
monitoring infrastructure, that introduces a dedicated event
view model and an eventing domain-speci c language in a
model-driven framework. The event view model captures
SOA artifacts and links them with the event domain, while
the eventing domain-speci c language enables a system developer
to specify instances of the event view model. With
our model-driven approach, most of the runtime monitoring
infrastructure is generated. These two ingredients (view
model and domain-speci c language) focus implementation
e orts on the concern of eventing, thereby helping to manage
complexity. We apply and evaluate our approach in the
context of a case study.
