Gateway Management Layer

The Gateway Management layer provides request tracking and logging.

It has the following subcomponents:

Central Logger

The Central Logger provides centralized logging of messages in a database.

Global Throttle Manager

The Global Throttle Manager manages the Facade Throttle Manager and Service Throttle Manager. This component maintains the state of all global throttles in both Facades (Facade Throttles) and Routers (Service Throttles).

Cache Cleanup Agent

The Cache Cleanup Agent component clears the cache based on the size and age of the cached values.

Monitoring and Management Server

The Monitoring and Management Server is the central management component that monitors the status and manages the operational tasks of all components in a gateway cluster.

Gateway Reporting (Optional)

The Gateway Reporting component generates various type of reports based on the data logged by the Central Logger component. This component integrates with the TIBCO Spotfire product to display the metrics.

The primary software components are displayed in the following diagram:
