AutoGlobe: An Automatic Administration Concept for Service-Oriented Database Applications

Overview Future database application systems will be designed as Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) like SAP's NetWeaver instead of monolithic software systems such as SAP's R/3. The decomposition in finer-grained services allows the usage of hardware clusters and a flexible service-to-server allocation but also increases the complexity of administration. Thus, new administration techniques like the self-organizing infrastructure that is developed in cooperation with the SAP Adaptive Computing Infrastructure (ACI) group are necessary. For the purpose the available hardware is virtualized, pooled, and monitored. A fuzzy logic based controller module supervises all services running on the hardware platform and remedies exceptional situations automatically. With this self-organizing infrastructure it reduces the necessary hardware and administration overhead and, thus, lowers the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
