MANAGEMENT OF COMPOSITE SOFTWARE SERVICES

摘要

A computer implemented method, data processing system, computer usable program code, and active repository are provided for management of a software service. A request (302) is received (702) to deploy the software service in a computer network (100). A dependency analysis is performed (704) for the requested software service to determine component software services and physical resources necessary to deploy and manage new software service as a composite in responsive to the software service being the new software service. An active object (406) is created (706) to manage the new software service using an active template (404) based on the analysis. The new software service is deployed (708) in the computer network (100) using the active object (406). The new software service is managed (710) using the active object (406).
