Michael,
That is not exactly what I think we have agreed upon:
· You now have both events and usage management. I am still not clear how these two are related MP: not sure what you are talking about - I do not have "event management" anywhere in the document
· Security is on of the policies. Why do we need manage them separately MP: security in SOA is much more than policies and include a lot of actions and activities starting with the code writing in certain style and ending with the run-time service calls interception for security validations.
· I thought that we agreed that QOS is one of the faucets of business transactions management, but for some reason the latter has disappeared. MP: I am not sure what " business transactions management" section you refer to. The Manageability of Quality of Service is in place after Performance Manageability
Management infrastructure has a lot of stuff, not all of which seems to be required. Additionally the components that you have there are on different levels of granularity. MP: as you, probably, noticed, this is the example. And , as an example, it points to many different things.
The sentence
These new resources consist of the policies and agreements agreed to by the stakeholders through the governance processes, participant interactions, participant relationships, and resources unique to SOA ecosystems related to the use of services across multiple ownership domains. Management control must be capable of acting across all ownership domains and in a consistent fashion.
Still does not make much sense to me MP: sense is here, grammatics is not. Instead of "to by", please, read "to".
The phrase
The ability of participants to provide services to users from other ownership domains or to consume services offered in other ownership domains raises issues not found in traditional system management.
Does not explain which issues you are talking about. MP: possibly, this statement requires some examples. I am not sure it does, however.
Folks,
please, find the final version of the Management Model section where I tried to collect all decisions articulated for the last week.
I'll be extremely busy at work till the end of April and it will be a problem to me to contribute more time into this edition. Sorry.
