Project context Partner use cases Draft architecture Products mapping HP integration ProActive features Agenda 2 12 September 2014
Project context Putting together experts from grids, services, resources and data to define a simple, coherent and realistic solution
Project context • Selected by the “Pôle de compétitivité Solutions Communicantes Sécurisées” • List of partners: HP, Oracle, Inria, Activeeon • Defined scope: integration project • Definition of an integration methodology • Definition of new software components • Integration of business and service dashboards • Integration of services with virtualized resources • Contribution to standards • Objective: “Integrate GRID technology into a business oriented SOA stack running over a virtualized infrastructure”
Proposed solution • A reference architecture putting together: • business intelligence • service oriented components • grid environment • virtualized systems • A library of process and service templates based on standards • A set of tools to easily build such applications • A real-time monitoring of business processes, services and resources • A methodology to migrate to the architecture
Applied onto water operator use case • Simulation application to better handle water distribution network and provision adequate hydraulic meshing • Focus is on software which allows the study, the planning and the control of irrigation • hydraulic simulation software for meshed networks for distribution of raw water or drinking water under pressure • full network is too large to be simulated at once; split into sub-network parts that can be studied independently • Main interest: • Parallelization of the application (SPMD approach) • Overlap multiple runs (parameters sweeping) on subnetworks • Better integrate with other applications • Better use of resources to speed up computation • Measured in terms of speed increasing of digital processing provided by the grid architecture
Applied onto global distribution system’s usage use case • Parsing and analysis of web session logs from target applications • Focus is on providing massive data analysis: • Customer session graph analysis or other data mining services • Know how groups of customers behave: the usage / navigation in websites • Main interest • Handle the size and the volume of data generated by core applications • Parsing of logs done massively in parallel • Results need to be stored in a distributed database • Better understand how the products are used • Help to improve the products continuously through the feedback loop • Expectations • Enable an advanced workflow beyond current standards to support processes and sub processes and/or to compose hybrid processes with services. • Enable streaming results from any parallel activity on a grid to feed a distributed database • Support operational aspects like monitoring, clustering, scalability, security, load balancing and failover thus enabling high availability SLA compliance agreements to be respected. • Enables one button push start, stop and resume on any running grid process
Draft architecture From building blocks to functional architecture proposal
Base line… Staged pyramid Adaptive infrastructure of heterogeneous resources Service delivery with quality added-value Business intelligence based on standardized processes Based on standards As defined in the related standards documents Existing implementations (proprietary / open-source) With grid middleware Grid environment: parallelism, distribution Web interfaces: thin web clients access Modeling facilities: composition, adaptive, configurable Efficient execution: design & execution patterns 9 12 September 2014

Define the business processes Processes defined in terms of business items Cope with business processes workflow Focus on business interactions between human and applications How are used the applications How are they chained in any given scenario What is expected as an output Not a programmatic task flow Do not cope with service implementation details Far from resource allocation concerns Handle specific concepts: Long transactions (suspended time, recurring patterns…) Requests approval (decision making, validation…) Human interactions (subjective perception, biased usage…) Business ecosystem (management, billing, visualization…)
Business Intelligence Reporting BusinessIntelligence Service Level Management Business Process • - Delivered results analysis • - Scenario validation • - Service & Service Level monitoring • - Reporting on key aspects by category • - Validation of performance gain, result precision, time to deliver… • - Comparison with reference benchmarks ServiceArchitecture AdaptiveInfrastructure
Calling value-added services Services stored in a registry with governance applied Manipulating proxies to available web services Services as composite components With predefined characteristics and features Interface contract Policy enforcement Delivered quality of service Mapped onto: Existing web services (black-box) Composite web services (functional composition) Skeleton web services (parallel pattern) Subordinate processes (time composition) Simple sequential services
Implemented as grid services Components executed on a set of resources Skeletons providing parallel patterns for efficient execution on the grid Transformed as jobs delegated to the grid scheduler Optimized active objects exposed as web services on the grid Jobs scheduled on the grid with direct access to the grid scheduler Specialized grid schedulers dedicated for specific usage
Service Architecture BusinessIntelligence SOA Environment Repository, Registry, Orchestration Service Composition Service Component ArchitectureParallel Programming Distributed shared memory ServiceArchitecture - Distributed parallel services accessing data in distributed shared memory - Functional composition of service components with dynamic reconfiguration - Exposed as web services in registry with a policy enforcement contract - Executed through proxies & orchestrated by a workflow engine AdaptiveInfrastructure
Executing on heterogeneous resources Code execution on well-known resources or over a set of dynamically discovered resources As tasks through a scheduler managing load-balancing, fault tolerance, high availability… As active objects with associated features such as migration, file transfer… As uncontrolled legacy application As tasks delegated to another grid utility environment Evolving set of resources (join / leave support) With specific or adaptive characteristics (virtualized or clustered) On a set of various operating systems Protected or not, intrusive or not
