Abstract
A dynamic administration framework for server systems. A generation mechanism may generate one or more components of the administration framework from meta-information describing persistently stored configuration information. Components providing an in-memory representation of configuration information and components representing business logic of the server may be generated. A user interface may be generated which may be used to administer the generated components. A configuration API may be provided that provides a transparent interface to the persistent store, abstracting storage format and location from clients of the configuration API. A generated administration framework may be compiled with application server or system-specific components. The compiled system may then be used at runtime. One embodiment may include an event notification mechanism that may allow changes in configuration data to be propagated to one or more servers. Using this event notification mechanism, the listening servers may not need to access the persistent store for updates.
