GridServer is a high performance, scalable, and fault tolerant SOA platform that allows services to be dynamically deployed and managed across distributed resources. It uses a director/broker architecture where directors manage brokers that in turn manage engines to execute services. Services can be automatically scaled and load balanced across engines to meet performance and availability needs. GridServer also provides centralized monitoring and reporting of services and resources.
Grid Server Intro
- 2. High performance SOA platform Modern, open and extensible Multi-platform, multi-language Self-managing: HA/Failover Deployment and provisioning Monitoring Large platform ecosystem of premier ISVs GridServer – Service Execution Environment
- 3. How it Works Physical server has one Daemon and 1 (or more) engines Daemon - monitors host and spawns one or more engines Engine creates service instances, controls, monitors, and isolates from other service instances Physical Machine
- 4. SpeedLink: Low-Latency, High-Throughput Extension to GridServer Real-time computing, 300 micro-second execution latency Extreme volume services Variable size dynamic pool that can be assigned directly to a client Example client types: ESB endpoint Application server Web service Application Components
- 5. Key Feature Summary Dynamic Scaling of Services: GridServer configures and manages services based on schedule, policy, and priority Unparalleled Performance: GridServer dynamically scales services to meet SLA targets Availability: Guaranteed Service Execution – even if the hardware fails Automatic failover and failback of services Centralized Command and Control: GridServer simplifies the configuration and management of running multiple services across widely distributed resources
- 6. Performance and Scaling Services can be scaled to meet performance or SLA demands Execution of online parallel transactions delivers the greatest flexibility and scalability Service availability delivers unparalleled horizontal scalability Node 1 Node 2 Node 3 Node 4 GridServer Manager 30 + brokers on a single grid 3,000 + engines on a single broker 30,000 + engines on a single grid Node 5 Node 6 Director Broker Broker Broker
- 7. Dynamic Resource Sharing The resource pool is a heterogeneous collection of engines, consisting of different platforms and operating systems Engine behavior is controlled at the individual component level, including mode and availability Because of resource sharing, engines can be configured to automatically move to where they’re needed – thereby ensuring high resource availability Director Broker B Broker C Broker A Director Broker B Broker C Broker A
- 8. Centralized Command and Control GridServer’s Admin Console is accessed via a web browser Alternatively, Admin API’s are accessible via SOAP, C++, .NET, and Java Provides complete plant management, including: Configuration and control of all GridServer resources Graphical monitoring Engine and Driver installation Event-based email notification Batch scheduling Secure Login Reporting
- 9. Application Resource Management Configuration options can be specified to affect how services are executed on Engines, controlling everything from stateful execution to retry logic and notifications Service options also provide the ability to specify resource limits (“don’t scale this execution past a specified number of engines”) All components can be configured, reconfigured dynamically and monitored Services can be reprioritized at execution
- 10. Data Caching GridCache™ provides durable state maintenance with a distributed data cache to distribute data all Engines on request via a full-featured distributed, replicated caching server and standards-based API (JCache – JSR107) Pluggable loaders for abstracting and controlling the interface to enterprise data resources Supports life-cycle management, bulk loading, XML, and RDBMS connection pooling Data locality is supported at the task and service levels Support for third-party caching products including Gemfire, Coherence, GigaSpaces is also available
- 11. Monitoring and Reporting Reporting database tables provide visibility into the demand and consumption of applications and resources Reporting is extended through VersaVision for near real-time portal-based reporting All GridServer components– Directors, Brokers, Engines, and Clients– maintain logs with configurable expirations and detail levels GridServer’s dashboard provides an Ajax-based console of current activity with drill-down capability The Service Status Report provides a historical view of executed services
- 12. Ease of Implementation GridServer is installed via a single implementation package that’s always the same, regardless of the platform or operating system Once unpackaged, GridServer Directors and Brokers are configured through the Admin GUI Engines are installed a single time and automatically keep themselves up-to-date with service deployments and software updates Transparent network tools are supported
