Description

Current proposal has Grid Web services (or the hosting middleware instance in general) publishing metrics (monitoring data) to the messaging layer and a management GUI (browser-based) get that data from the messaging layer.

Client types

Producers

Grid Web services publishing metrics, WAN distributed.

Consumers

Web GUI consuming data, WAN distributed users.

Destination types

Not yet clear, could be:

• one topic for each middleware instance containing all monitoring data, regardless of metric type
• one topic for each metric type per middleware instance
• one topic for each Grid service per middleware instance

For a give destination type:

• instances number: not known
• messages content: monitoring data structured according to a schema
• messages size: unclear at the moment
• format of the messages body: XML
• messages lifetime: 1-3 minutes
• maximum latency: not known
• permanent vs occasional connections: permanent connected producers and occasionally connected consumers
• security requirements: unclear at the moment, expect to have some level of security

For a given destination instance:

• producers, consumers, message rate: not known

For a given destination type:

• producers, consumers, message rate: not known
