Components and Servers
TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator bundles several components and interacts with multiple servers.
- Administrator back-end server supports the browser web interface and command-line scripting interface.
- TIBCO Credential server provides a built-in Certificate Authority for security configurations that use SSL.
- Monitoring Service collates data from the regular broadcast of statistics and performance metrics from remote applications and services deployed in TIBCO ActiveMatrix. This component enables you to view aggregated and summarized metrics in the browser interface.
- Log Service collects and persists log event messages from an entire TIBCO ActiveMatrix installation to a central database, allowing you to query the logs in powerful ways from the browser interface.
- Payload Service manages large payloads associated with log events.
- One or more Enterprise Message Service servers:
Notification Server propagates monitoring data such as the runtime states of various entities from the rest of TIBCO ActiveMatrix to Administrator.
Messaging Bus propagates messages between applications and also between components in an application. You can partition and segregate business data traffic to multiple Enterprise Message Service Servers using multiple environments.
You can combine the two Enterprise Message Service servers into a single one or have separate servers for your configuration and bandwidth requirements.
All Enterprise Message Service servers must be dedicated to one enterprise and cannot be shared across multiple enterprises.
- LDAP (optional) integrates the user accounts for the Administrator with your corporate LDAP server. If not integrating with an LDAP server, you can still create and manage accounts using the Administrator's database.
- Database (optional) maintains the Administrator server configuration, statistical information about services, and log events. If you do not have an external database server, Administrator can use HSQLDB, a built-in lightweight database.
