SOA Management

IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for SOA can monitor, manage and control the Web services layer of IT architectures while drilling down to the application or resource layer to identify the source of bottlenecks or failures and to pinpoint services that take the most time or use the most resources.

IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager (ITCAM) for Response Time Tracking can help you avoid critical Web services performance problems by discovering, isolating and decomposing the Web services calls into the underlying components (Enterprise Java Beans, Servlets, Java Connector Architecture, DB2 etc.), allowing for true root-cause analysis of Web services performance and availability failures. ITCAM for Response Time Tracking has been enhanced to include support for transaction performance monitoring at the Web services level for more thorough problem identification and resolution.

ITCAM for Response Time Tracking also provides a real-time console (see Figure 1) and alerting capabilities for Web services performance, availability metrics, and statistics.
