Business benefits
Moving to a service-oriented architecture (SOA) enables you to model, assemble, deploy and manage services independently of the applications and the computing platforms on which they run - making your business processes more flexible and your IT environment more closely aligned and responsive to your changing business needs. As a result, you can achieve rapid growth, reduced total cost of ownership and improved access to timely, accurate information.
IBM® Tivoli® Composite Application Manager for SOA (ITCAM for SOA) will monitor, manage and control SOAs deployed using a wide range of IBM and third-party systems, helping you to:
Proactively recognize and quickly isolate Web service performance problems
Verify that Web services are available and performing to specification
Alert you when Web service performance is degraded
Perform automated service mediation, for example, to reject or re-route certain requests during periods of heavy load
Report results against committed service levels
Visualize service flows, end-to-end, as they cross the enterprise
Pinpoint source of service bottlenecks
Understand the impact of service problems on business processes
