GridScope's Federated Service Management (FSM) is based on a 100% configuration-driven approach
to provisioning web services and associated policies.
Automated, Registry-Crawling Discovery of Services: A first-of-its-kind
dynamically updating Repository
actually crawls service registries to ensure that all services are identified and available
to business users.
Enhanced Performance with Full Service Caching: The GridScope
Repository automatically loads service
assets (definitions, policies, configurations, SLAs, etc.) into a high-performance cache to
improve service response time.
Maximum Service Interoperability: GridScope's client platform-independent
framework automatically adjusting to work with J2EE, .Net or any other client standard
simultaneously. This radically reduces the potential for vendor lock-in and frees customers
to combine a true best of breed solution.
Federated Management of Services: The GridScope
Gateway's runtime application
of management logic enables users to extend their control, from a consumption standpoint,
to services outside the enterprise.
Rapid, non-intrusive installation, configuration, and implementation: The
GridScope installation process allows customers to have a fully-functioning implementation in a
matter of hours with no disruption to ongoing operations, eliminating the need for complex
installation plans or expensive consulting arrangements and accelerating the customers' ability
to adapt to change.
The latest Open Standards-based design: New standards have
emerged in the SOA and Web Services space in the past two years. GridScope products are already
designed in accordance with the new standards. GridScope products are built on freely available
open source standards, which lowers the total cost of ownership for the customer.
