Method, system, and computer program product for providing network data flow analysis and routing |
摘要 |
Data flow analysis and routing processes include monitoring a process of a workflow, intercepting data traffic for data entered for the process, and identifying a communication path of a destination location for the data traffic. The method also includes verifying compliance of the process by applying business rules to the data, and notifying an entity of any non-compliance identified from the verification. |

1. A method for providing data flow analysis, comprising:
defining phases for a workflow, the defining including identifying applications implemented for each of the phases and process tasks corresponding to each of the applications; monitoring a process of the workflow via a data flow analyzer executing on a computer processor; intercepting data traffic for data entered for the process and identifying a communication path of a destination location for the data traffic; verifying compliance of the process by applying business rules to the data; and notifying an entity of any non-compliance identified from the verifying before proceeding to a next phase in the phases for the workflow; wherein the verifying compliance of the process by applying the business rules includes: parsing the data in the data traffic; and comparing the data in data fields of the process to data stored in data fields of the process in a log for instances of the process conducted over a period of time; wherein the workflow is configured for an ordering system and a first phase of the phases specifies tasks associated with a customer service application for generating an order and an accounting application for determining a financial status of a customer subject to the order, a second phase of the phases specifies tasks associated with provisioning a service for the customer, a third phase specifies tasks associated with a scheduling application, and a fourth phase of the phases specifies tasks associated with a billing application. |
