Abstract

The proposal of this project of scientific initiation aims to the implementation of a Web tool for visualizing performance data from a SOA architecture with QoS. This data comes from a LogServer integrated with a relational database which uses MySql or PostgreeSql. Because it is a relational data base, the LogServer allows data to me mapped to a Web platform through a Web server integrated with the LogServer. Thus, it's expected that any user with permissions can have access to performance information of a SOA architecture using a Web browser. The real time visualization (online) will help service developers with decision making about possible problems that may happen when integrating components or applications. The WEBPEVI tool will also provide performance information to be seen off-line, that means that even after a performance test ends, authorized users will be able to access the data from LogServer for later analysis. The idea is that each set of performance tests has an identifier (ID) and all data generated and stored on LogServer is associated with this ID. (AU)
