Centralized Process Integration Message Search System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems for process integration (PI) domain monitoring and message searching are decentralized, requiring users to access each PI component individually for monitoring and searching, which is inefficient and difficult for complex systems with numerous components.
Innovation Solution
A centralized system that orchestrates calls to PI components within a domain to retrieve and aggregate message information, allowing for centralized monitoring and message searching across multiple components, using APIs to collect metadata and statistics, and presenting information through a dashboard for system-wide analysis.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a decentralized system is used for PI component monitoring and message searching, then each component can be accessed individually, but the system becomes inefficient and difficult to manage for complex systems with numerous components
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple decentralized PI components into a single centralized monitoring system. The centralized system aggregates monitoring capabilities and message searching functions across all PI components, allowing users to access and manage multiple components through a single interface rather than accessing each component individually, thereby improving system efficiency and ease of operation
2Loss of information
If users access each PI component individually for monitoring and searching, then detailed component-specific information can be obtained, but the process becomes time-consuming and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The centralized monitoring system performs preliminary aggregation of message information from all PI components before user access. By pre-collecting and organizing message data across the entire PI domain, the system eliminates the need for users to sequentially access each component to gather information, significantly reducing the time required for monitoring and searching while maintaining complete information accessibility
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple disparate computing systems are integrated to perform process integration, then business functions can be distributed across specialized systems, but monitoring and searching become complex and difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a centralized monitoring system as an intermediary between users and multiple disparate PI components. This intermediary system handles the complexity of communicating with and monitoring various specialized systems (CRM, ERP, SCM, FM), providing a simplified unified interface that maintains the adaptability and versatility of distributed business functions while eliminating monitoring and searching complexity

AI summary
The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for centralized message searching of business processes. One process includes identifying a process integration (PI) domain associated with a message search, where the PI domain includes at least one PI component, and receiving a set of user-defined search attributes for searching messages within the identified PI domain, where each search attribute associated with a corresponding value. At least one message corresponding to the set of the received user-defined search attributes associated with at least one PI component is identified, and information associated with the identified at least one message corresponding to at least a portion of the set of received search attributes is retrieved. At least a portion of the retrieved information associated with the identified at least one message is presented via a user interface.
