(InfoWorld) - AmberPoint will add an Adobe Flex-based interface to its SOA management platform, with the goal of giving users a bird's eye view of their SOA networks The company on Monday is announcing the release of Version 6 of AmberPoint SOA Management System and AmberPoint SOA Validation System. As part of Management System, AmberPoint will feature SOA Explorer, which provides a graphical, interactive view of SOA networks. SOA leverages Adobe's Flex and Flash technologies as well as AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML).Â  With SOA Explorer, users can monitor operational status and drill down on areas of interest. Filtering of information gives users a more manageable amount of information to digest. Without this capability, "you can see so much information that it's overwhelming," said Ed Horst, AmberPoint vice president of marketing. Capabilities in the new product release reflect the growth in SOA that AmberPoint is experiencing, Horst said. "This release is kind of an outgrowth of the kind of apps we're seeing in our installed base," he said. "We now have some customers with well over 1,000 components," in their SOA, Horst said. Some customers are processing millions of transactions per day, he added. "With that comes effectively a pretty complex environment to govern at run time. That's our business," Horst said. AmberPoint focuses on visibility into an SOA as well as control and validation, Horst said. He described validation as keeping things in order after changes are made. Also featured in the new AmberPoint platform is automatic throttling, to set limits on service usage, Horst said. The computer machine interface in AmberPoint, meanwhile, now supports scripting for capabilities such as performing automatic backups. Scripting technologies such as Ant and Perl are supported. An analyst weighed AmberPoint against rival Actional. AmberPoint has an edge over Actional in the area of visual effects, although Actional covers more messaging protocols, said analyst Anne Thomas Manes, vice president of Burton Group. "The thing that I think AmberPoint does really [well] is the visualization particularly from the business perspective and I think that's the edge that AmberPoint has over Actional at this point," Manes said. SOA Validation System, meanwhile, now validates business applications using transactions that span multiple services. Potential runtime anomalies are detected. Pricing for either SOA Management System or SOA Validation System starts at $25,000. AmberPoint 6 ships in 60 days.

An enhanced multi-threaded syslogd, supporting reliable syslog over TCP and RFC 3195, writing to MySQL databases, fully configurable output formats (with great timestamps), ability to filter on anything, and on-the-wire message compression.   Hi all,  Rsyslog 3.11.2 has just been released. Now it has the ability to convert text files into syslog. This is done by the imfile plugin, which monitors text files. A new libdbi-based output plugin has been written. This adds six additional databases (including Firebird and Oracle) to the supported database set. Also contains small bug fixes. Version 3.11.2 is a recommended release for all version 3 users.  Doc for new Modules:    http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-omlibdbi.html    http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-imfile.html  Changelog:    http://www.rsyslog.com/Article175.phtml  Download:    http://www.rsyslog.com/Downloads-req-getit-lid-79.phtml  I hope this release is useful. As always, feedback is appreciated.  Best regards, Rainer Gerhards

Jitterbit 1.1 is a major release for the Jitterbit open source integration product. Jitterbit is an open source integration tool that delivers a quick and simple way to design, configure, test, and deploy integration solutions. It supports many document types and protocols: XML, web services, database, LDAP, text, FTP, HTTP(S), file.   Additions to 1.1 include:  Support for LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) - Using Jitterbit you can now integrate enterprise systems with corporate directory services.  Hosted Web Services - Prior to 1.1 Jitterbit could only  consume outside Web Services.  With the latest release users can host and expose their own Web Services securely to the outside world.  This feature is stable, however, it will see increased functionality and more intuitive usability in future versions.  Web Services Cookie support -   Certain Web ervices require cookies for storing session information.  Support for this  functionality is new in 1.1.  XML Any - Support for the XML Any is now included. The  element enables users to extend an XML document with elements not specified by the schema. We will continue to expand our XML and Web Services support.  Encryption for Jitterpaks - Jitterpaks can now be password  encrypted to protect sensitive data contained in the pre-packaged integration.  In addition to these major additions, over 50 bugs were closed in this release.  Jitterbit 1.1 comes with revamped Documentation which is available in both the Application as well as online in the Jitterbit Wiki.

(InfoWorld) - AmberPoint on Monday is extending its AmberPoint SOA runtime governance suite to Tibco's new ActiveMatrix SOA platform and more application servers. The 5.2 version of the suite features the AmberPoint SOA Management System and the company's SOA Validation System. These products provide services such as performance and availability monitoring and management as well as security and exception handling. By supporting products from multiple vendors, AmberPoint can help users cope with mergers in which partnering companies use different technologies, said Ed Horst, AmberPoint vice president of marketing. "It's not uncommon for an enterprise to say, 'I'm going to standardize on WebLogic,' and they acquire a company that's standardized on WebSphere. Now what do you do?" Horst said. Additional products that can be managed via AmberPoint's suite include ActiveMatrix as well IBM WebSphere version 6.0, BEA WebLogic Server version 9.2, and BEA WebLogic AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5, Horst said. AmberPoint also now can feed information such as performance and availability data to the Mercury SiteScope system monitoring platform. ActiveMatrix incorporates AmberPoint management technology, but AmberPoint's products can provide additional capabilities such as dependency and exception management, according to Tibco officials.
