INTEGRATION OF AN ARBITRARY SERVER INSTALLED AS AN EXTENSION OF A COMPUTING PLATFORM

摘要

A package including a native monitoring library and a shared memory API interface to the native monitoring library is integrated into an arbitrary server to reuse monitoring performed by a server instance of a cluster of server instances. The one or more extension server nodes are installed on a server instance from the cluster of server instances based the arbitrary server. Status information is reported to the shared memory via the shared memory API by the installed extension server nodes. Logging format native to the arbitrary server is reconfigured according to input values of configuration parameters that specify logging format native to server nodes running on the server instance. An application is deployed on each of one or more extension server nodes. The deployment operation of the application is transactional. Security control for the deployed application is delegated to the cluster of server instances.

1. A computer implemented method to deploy an application on an arbitrary server installed as one or more extension server nodes on a server instance of a cluster of server instances:
receiving an application package that represents a unit of deployment of the application; extracting the application package at a memory location of the server instance that stores a runtime of the extension server, the extracted package to be used for subsequent deployments of the application on an extension server node from the one or more extension server nodes; and based on the extracted application package, deploying the application on the one or more extension server nodes, wherein the one or more extension server nodes are installed on the server instance from the arbitrary server.
