ABSTRACT:
A method monitors data resources of a data processing network on behalf of a new consumer. The method comprises determining monitoring requirements of the new consumer. The monitoring requirements include: a list of data resources monitored for the new consumer; metrics of the monitoring data for the new consumer; a data format for monitoring data provided to the new consumer; a time interval between periods of sending the monitoring data to the new consumer; and actions taken during failure of the data resource. The method also includes comparing the monitoring requirements of the new consumer with monitoring capabilities of a plurality of monitoring entities to identify at least one monitoring entity, including monitoring capabilities matching the monitoring requirements of the new consumer.
