Fully Distributed Service Configuration Management

چکیده
Configuration management in today’s data centers is largely a human activity. Where automation does exist it is usually implemented by centralized management tools that coordinate configuration actions across the entire infrastructure and applications. These systems are limited in scale, reliability, and security. We propose that dependable service configuration management is more naturally implemented by a loose federation of fully distributed and self discovering management systems that interact through controlled information exchange.

متن کاملConfiguration management for distributed software services
The paper describes the SysMan approach to interactive configuration management of distributed software components (objects). Domains are used to group objects to apply policy and for convenient naming of objects. Configuration Management involves using a domain browser to locate relevant objects within the domain service; creating new objects which form a distributed service; allocating these ...

متن کاملDistributed computing for plug-and-play network service configuration
Configuration of network services is a difficult problem requiring considerable human involvement. As the peripheral configuration of PCs has been made easier through plug-andplay hardware, service configuration can be facilitated by defining PnP services for networks. Moreover, the recent developments in the area of distributed computing technologies, such as CORBA, Mobile Agents, and Jini, an...
