Aggregation

Both

Y

4.

2.0

The Aggregation and Correlation framework. Consists of:

• Profile; defines storage, input type(s), session type, and rules for matching. 

• Processing Agent (realtime and batch); defines processing rules for manipulation of sessions, including time out handling.

• APL Commands for processing; all general APL functions are available, in addition to a set of Aggregation specific commands for session handling. 

• Inspector; enables inspection, manipulation and deletion of stored sessions. 

File storage option is included. Other types are available as extensions.

Analysis

Both

2.0

The data analysis and processing agent. Consists of:

• Profile; defines customized global functions that can be used by all workflows.

• Processing Agent; validates, manipulates and routes data. Includes a library of functions.

Archive

Offline

Y

4.

2.0

Enables files to be saved on a filesystem from any route in a workflow. 

• Profile; defines where to store data, how to name sub-directories, and and switch directory policies.

• Archive Global agent; saves data on a shared filesystem,

• Archive Local agent; saves data on the local disk (of the JVM the workflow is executing on).

• Inspector module; enables inspection and deletion of data.

• Maintenance Task Plug-in; an automatic clean-up task. The clean up intervals and allowed age of archived files is fully configurable.

Black Box

Both

Database Collection / Forwarding

Offline

Y

4.

2.0

Enable collection from and forwarding to database tables. Consists of:

• Connectivity for Derby

• Connectivity for Oracle

• Profile; defines connection details to the database.

• DB collection agent; Collects rows from databases and inserts them as UDRs into a workflow. A configurable SQL query is executed upon workflow activation, and all matching rows will comprise a batch of UDRs. The format of the UDRs is configurable.

• DB forwarding agent; Inserts UDRs as rows in database tables. Table columns can be populated with UDR fields or MIM values. Optionally, commit window size can be set.

2.0

Enables duplication control of collected batches. Metadata for verified batches

is kept for a configurable number of days. Duplication check can be based on file size, check sum and MIM values. Duplicates are removed from processing and stored on local disk. Consists of:

• Profile

• Processing agent

• Inspector

Duplicate UDR

Offline

Y

4.

2.0

Provides duplication control of incoming UDRs. Metadata for verified UDRs

is kept for a configurable number of days. Duplication check can be based on one or several fields in the UDRs. Duplicates are stored in ECS, or routed on an alternate route in the workflow. Consists of:

• Profile

• Processing agent

• Inspector

Error Correction System (ECS)

Offline

Y

• ECS collection agent

• Maintenance Task plug-in

• Inspector
