20120253859 | METRICS BASED DESIGN METHOD AND SYSTEM - A metrics based design method and system is disclosed. The method includes receiving by a computer processor, an informational model comprising data objects, attributes, and relationships associated with a service. The data objects comprise sub-objects. The computer processor receives business affinity (BA) band data associated with the data objects, threshold levels associated with the business affinity (BA) band data, business affinity (BA) levels associated with the business affinity (BA) band data, and service interface operation parameters. The computer processor computes a business affinity (BA) for the informational model based on the business affinity (BA) band data, the threshold levels, the business affinity (BA) levels, and the service interface operation parameters. The computer processor computes a data variation percentage and a reusability count. The computer processor performs: a nested level computation for service valency, a factorization process for computing service valency, and a data element count. | 10-04-2012 |
20130019245 | SPECIFYING ON THE FLY SEQUENTIAL ASSEMBLY IN SOA ENVIRONMENTSAANM Jalaldeen; AhamedAACI KarnatakaAACO INAAGP Jalaldeen; Ahamed Karnataka INAANM Purohit; Siddharth N.AACI AllenAAST TXAACO USAAGP Purohit; Siddharth N. Allen TX USAANM Sharma; ManishaAACI New DelhiAACO INAAGP Sharma; Manisha New Delhi INAANM Sivakumar; GandhiAACI VictoriaAACO AUAAGP Sivakumar; Gandhi Victoria AUAANM Viswanathan; RamAACI PlanoAAST TXAACO USAAGP Viswanathan; Ram Plano TX US - A method and system for defining an interface of a service in a service-oriented architecture environment. Definitions of atomic tasks of a request or response operation included in a service are received. Unique identifiers corresponding to the atomic tasks are assigned. A sequence map required to implement the service is received. The sequence map is populated with a sequence of the assigned unique identifiers corresponding to a sequence of the atomic tasks of the operation. At runtime, an interface of the service is automatically and dynamically generated to define the service by reading the sequence of unique identifiers in the populated sequence map and assembling the sequence of the atomic tasks based on the read sequence of unique identifiers. | 01-17-2013 |
20130047230 | BUILDING DATA SECURITY IN A NETWORKED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - In general, embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for providing a multi-tenant/customer partition group separator and securer in a shared cloud infrastructure (e.g., as an extension to DB2®, Label-Based Access Control (LBAC), and/or an independent tool). Among other things, embodiments of the present invention provide cloud administrators with an easy to use customizable, configurable security constraint builder/tool with a built-in multi-tenant/customer enabled security model. Moreover, embodiments of the present invention enable cloud administrators to set up, configure, and manage tenants/customers and their private shards with their own security constraints. The output of this tool greatly eases the time to create an invisible (e.g., software) wall of separation for multiple tenants/customers in a shared cloud infrastructure. | 02-21-2013 |
20130238781 | SNMP-BASED MANAGEMENT OF SERVICE ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE ENVIRONMENTS - A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-based apparatus including an SNMP manager to monitor network hardware devices and define object identifiers (OIDs); a Simple SOA Performance Monitor (SSPM) manager to augment the OIDs with service-specific object identifiers to monitor services; and an SSPM agent associated with at least one service to collect details pertaining to the service, the details of the service being provided to the SSPM manager which in turn provides the details of the service to the SNMP manager. The SNMP-based apparatus may be implemented by at least one computing device. Also disclosed is a method of monitoring services and a computer program product. | 09-12-2013 |
20130254764 | ENABLING MULTI-TENANCY FOR INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT SOFTWARE IN VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS - A method and system for enabling multiple users in a computing environment is provided. The method includes receiving software comprising an operating system, integrated development environment (IDE) software, middleware software, and database software. A virtual image instance of operating system, the IDE software, the middleware software, and the database software is provisioned to a virtual instance. User IDs for access to the operating system instance are generated. Workspaces are generated and associated with the user IDs. The middleware software and the database software are configured and the virtual image instance is enabled to accept multiple concurrent logins associated with the user IDs. | 09-26-2013 |
20140059519 | ENABLING MULTI-TENANCY FOR A COMMERCE SERVER - A method and system for enabling multi-tenancy in a commerce server is provided. The method includes receiving software comprising an operating system, integrated development environment (IDE) software, commerce server middleware software, and database software. A virtual image instance of operating system, the IDE software, and the database software is provisioned to a virtual instance. User IDs for access to the operating system instance are generated. Workspaces are generated and associated with the user IDs. The commerce server middleware software is configured such that the user IDs, hosts, and ports are mapped to commerce server services associated with the commerce server middleware software. The database software is configured such that the virtual image instance is enabled to accept multiple concurrent logins associated with the user IDs. | 02-27-2014 |
20140365442 | ARCHIVAL MANAGEMENT OF BUSINESS PROCESSES IN A CLOUD ENVIRONMENT - A method for product for archival management of business processes in a cloud environment is provided. In one aspect, the method comprises archiving managed pool including one or more versions of a business process instance or business process execution in a cloud computing environment. The method further comprises a provisioning manager of the cloud computing environment that requests or tasks provisioning, deprovisioining, decommissioning or deleting the one or more versions of a business process instance or business process execution. For each of the requests or tasks, a restore manager of the cloud environment determines, if the managed pools of virtual instances contain a business process management environment or a business process archive manager environment. The restore manager further recreates a previous version of the one or more versions of the business process instance or business process execution based on the determination. | 12-11-2014 |
20150199188 | SEAL-BASED REGULATION FOR SOFTWARE DEPLOYMENT MANAGEMENT - An approach is provided for managing a deployment of a software package. A retrieved quality assurance (QA) seal corresponding to a software package is verified. A target deployment environment (TDE) is obtained. The QA seal is read to obtain first and second profiles, and metadata, which specify a deployment environment, hardware and software dependencies required in the deployment, and an approval for a release of the software package to the specified deployment environment, respectively. Based on a determination that the TDE matches the specified deployment environment, the QA seal indicates the software package is compatible with the TDE. The dependencies are determined to be satisfied. Based on the software package being compatible with the TDE, the dependencies being satisfied, and the specified approval for the release of the software package, a notification of an authorization of the deployment of the software package to the TDE is generated. | 07-16-2015 |
