Automatic Generation of AMF Compliant Configurations

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 5017))

Abstract

Service Availability Forum has defined a set of APIs to enable the building of off-the-shelf components for applications providing highly available services. A set of services has been defined and the Availability Management Framework is the service responsible of managing availability and therefore shifting this task from the applications to the middleware. Designing an AMF compliant configuration, for a given application, can be a tedious and error prone task because of the large number of attributes and parameters to be taken into account. In this paper, we propose an algorithm and the corresponding tool prototype for generating an AMF compliant configuration. We illustrate our approach with an example and discuss the main issues of the automatic generation.
