Abstract

Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) are becoming the prevalentapproach for realizing modern services and systems. SOA offerssuperior support for autonomy (decoupling) and heterogeneitycompared to previous generation middleware systems, resulting inmore scalable and adaptive solutions. However, SOA have notadequately addressed management, while traditional managementsolutions do not sufficiently scale to address the needs of (global)Web services. We propose scalable management based on models and industrystandards. We discuss a use case for global service management,we present its design, implementation and preliminary evaluation.We retain all the benefits of SOA while also enabling global scalemanageability. Our approach provides manageability that iscomprehensible for administrators yet automated enough for integrationinto autonomous systems.
