A method distributes event processing in a distributed computing environment by storing transmission costs between computational node pairs, determining a low-cost route to deliver events from producers to consumers based on the costs, applying an augmentation to events via the low-cost route to generate augmented events, and delivering the augmented events to consumers via the low-cost route. Specifically, the method involves storing transmission costs between each of multiple computational node pairs in the distributed environment, where nodes comprise event producers and consumers. A low-cost route is determined to deliver a detected event from a producer to a consumer based on the stored costs. An augmentation is applied to the event via the low-cost route to generate an augmented event. The augmented event is then delivered to the consumer via the same low-cost route.

Event processing in a distributed computing environment

A method to deploy a plurality of event-driven application components of an event-driven application in a distributed computing environment is described. The method includes automatically analyzing application source code of the event-driven application, using one or more processors, to identify relationships between the plurality of event-driven application components. Thereafter, a set of rules are applied to, based on the automatic analysis, generate assignment data recording assignments of event-driven application components to a plurality of computational nodes in the distributed computing environment. The set of rules is also applied to determine component requirements for each of the plurality of event-driven application components required to support execution at an assigned computational node in the distributed computing environment.

Rule-based assignment of event-driven application

A method to broker events of event-driven application components, within a distributed computing environment and using a mesh broker, is described. The mesh broker is instantiated as several mesh agents, the mesh agents being provisioned to support mediation activities relating to a plurality of computational nodes within the distributed computing environment. The mesh agents are further deployed as a mesh network among the computational nodes of the distributed computing environment. A connectivity catalog stores cost data associated with transmission of an event notification between each of multiple pairs of computational nodes of the computational nodes. Routes across the mesh network are automatically selected, by the mesh agents and using the cost data to determine low-cost routes across the mesh network.

Deployment of event-driven application in an IoT environment

Techniques to instrument computer applications to receive run-time telemetry, and to perform analysis on collected telemetry are described. Telemetry instrumentation is injected into an application via an application migration tool. The migration tool generates source code corresponding to a target computing architecture. During the generation of source code, the migration tool injects code capable of sensing specified events and/or event categories and reporting telemetry to a data store. The data store may be queried and/or accessed to perform analysis to detect suboptimal instrumentation and/or application errors. Use cases may include the detection of performance, health, security and usability issues.

In one embodiment, a method for correlating web service messages includes operating an autonomous software agent. This agent can detect a correlation key of a message, and then associate the message with the detected correlation key while a transaction is pending. During the transaction, the message can be accessed to retrieve information. In another embodiment, the method includes further operating said autonomous software agent to acquire a subset of rules governing execution of the transaction. The agent can be configured to intercept a noncompliant message associated with the correlation key. If it does, the agent can modify the noncompliant message to comply the said subset of rules.

Apparatus and method for web service message correlation

A method of supplementing the operations performed by a web service includes operating an autonomous software agent. The autonomous software agent receives a request directed to a web service and identifies a web service input operation associated with the request. The web service input operation is associated with a set of input actions. The input actions are executed prior to directing the request to web service. The autonomous software agent may also receive a response from the web service. A web service output operation associated with the response is identified. The web service output operation is associated with a set of output actions. The output actions are executed prior to directing the response to a client.
