ABSTRACT:
An Information Systems (IS) monitoring approach is described that is capable of monitoring and displaying the availability of various software components, including “foundational” operation features of the IS infrastructure. A further capability is that the availability of the individual software components upon which a specific business logic process depends may each be individually and continuously checked, in a combined fashion that is referenced to the specific business logic process, so that the status of the business logic process itself (e.g., operable or non-operable) can be continuously determined. Moreover, operability or non-operability can be established over a wide range of different business logic processes on a process by process basis. In this manner, an IS administrator can keep abreast of the status of the IS infrastructure and its ability to execute business logic processes dependent on lower level software.
