Embodiment Construction

[0016] The need to design, implement and maintain a runtime policy for each managed service in an SOA can make debugging a computer system with such an architecture difficult. This is especially true for more complex systems that include multiple services. Different clients may access each service in many different ways via several policy enforcement points; however in each case it is expected that the runtime policy should be consistent and faithful to the needs of the business policy, e.g. to avoid potential weakness. As systems become more complex (often changing and growing over time), it becomes increasingly difficult to ensure that the runtime policies governing services are properly aligned with business policies. Furthermore, the business policy itself may undergo changes, which should be implemented for all affected runtime policies.

[0017] In an enterprise deployment scenario, it is desirable that the services made available to customers and business partners be ...

Abstract

Presented is an automated policy-provisioning method for a computing system having a service-oriented architecture. The system comprises at least one managed service and at least one policy enforcement point operable to enforce a runtime policy for the service. The method comprises: receiving in machine-readable form at least one semantic rule defining a condition imposed by a business policy; receiving machine-readable data describing a runtime policy enforcement capability of the at least one policy enforcement point; determining based on the at least one rule and the capability whether the at least one policy enforcement point can meet the condition; based on the determination, deriving a runtime policy suitable for enforcing the condition; and communicating the runtime policy to the at least one policy enforcement point.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to policy provisioning. Background technique [0002] Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a design paradigm for computing systems. It is based on an abstract model in which computing resources are considered in terms of needs and capabilities. In such a model, a service is an entity that is made available to a service client to satisfy one or more needs of that client. A core principle of SOA is that services are loosely coupled, ie different services can be provided by different providers potentially distributed at different physical locations or at multiple points in a computer network. Thus, rather than providing services in fixed single groups (as is often the case with traditional software applications), service clients can instead aggregate specific groups of services that best suit their needs. The SOA model may be particularly beneficial when it is desired to integrate various computing functions, such as sev...
