Policy Director Governance Administration

TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Director Governance administration provides services to define and manage governance controls, object groups, shared resources, external services, and proxy applications.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Director Governance is typically, but not necessarily, installed and configured on a separate machine from your runtime engines. The administration component includes both TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator's browser-based and command-line interface for scripting policy configuration and management tasks.

One of the core administration components, the distribution engine, distributes governance control to different governance agents based on the selected object groups, and where the governed objects run. The distribution engine uses the Enterprise Messaging Service (EMS) and Java Messaging Services (JMS) to communicate with governance agents to receive start-up events, deploy policy and resource configurations, and receive deployment status messages.

After the policies are deployed to the governance agent, you can take the administration components offline without affecting policy enforcement on each of the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid nodes.
