A collaborative management as a service framework for managing Internetware systems

Published:17 October 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

The openness, heterogeneity, dynamism and autonomy characteristics of Internetware bring challenges to the management. In this paper, we introduce a web-delivered management service framework to manage Internetware systems. Through this framework, the Internetware systems can be managed centrally, and management functions can be easily added and applied by publishing and subscribing management services. The key innovations of this framework are: using an abstract managed object model to describe the units to be managed and their relationships, and every management function is manipulated as a service which can be further composed into processes. The benefits are management services and processes can be published and subscribed by administrators and domain experts, and the services can be delivered remotely. Both the management service and the process can be reused thus the total management cost can be reduced.
