AxS - Next Generation EMS

Software Development Engineering / Dev

Lead

This is a generic EMS platform, which monitors the list of Network

Elements. The basic vision behind this product is to be able to monitor any

Network Element (NE) with modifications to the Model. This follows the

typical J2EE Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). The application server

(JBoss), contains multiple services like Security, Logging, Transaction

management, Alarm retrieval and propagation, SNMP connections to NE to

retrieve/set data, Trap registration, JMS for events and JMX for exposing

the services to the client. The JBoss server communicates with the Database

(Mysql) using Hibernate queries. The client layer is built using the

Eclipse RCP libraries. For ease of development and to be able to integrate

with the other services within the server, Spring framework is used.

Follows open source style of development with documentation in the Wiki and

regular scrum meetings.

Middleware Manager - Web Logic

Lead Engineer / Developer / coordinator

This is an end user focused product which monitors the Web Logic

Servers running in a network. The various dynamic and static parameters are

retrieved and stored in the database. The Java (swing) Client picks up data

from the database and displays it. Data collection is performed for the

various services namely EJB, JDBC, JTA, Servlet, Web Server, Jolt etc. The

technology used to collect data is via SNMP and JMX. During data

collection, the fault

Management engine triggers an Alarm which in turn fires the corrective

action (like sending an e-mail, sending a trap, executing a command) that

need to be taken.

Zoho Corp, India Jul 2001 - Oct 2001

Root Cause Analysis

Lead Engineer / Developer

The need for the product started with finding the root causes for the

Alarms that were triggered from various modules. The module is powered by

an Engine which walks through a configuration Xml which acts as the

backbone for the module. The Configuration xml captures the relationship

between various modules in a hierarchy and also contains data classes.

These data classes pick up data from the appropriate tables and feed the

engine with data. The engine processes the feed, maps it with an associated

"Cause" and assigns probability to it stores it in database. A swing UI

displays the "List of Causes", sorted on probability which is the most

likely cause. The highlighting factor is that any product can trigger this

by providing an appropriate xml and writing the feeder classes.

Zoho Corp, India Jan 2001 - Jul 2001

Host Resource Monitoring - Linux &

Solaris

Developer / coordinator

This is of extensive use to system administrators who want to keep

track of all Hosts in their Domain from one geographical location. This is

an Xml driven module wherein the parameters to be collected and the

commands used to get data will be supplied in the Xml. The server

identifies the target machine, telnets to it and executes the appropriate

commands. The retrieved data is stored in the database. Alarms are

triggered based on Threshold. Data and the

Alarms are picked up by the Jsp pages at runtime and displayed in the html

client.

Zoho Corp, India July 2000 - Jan 2001

AdventNet WebNMS MSP Edition

Developer

The product targets the Management Service Providers (MSPs) and the

Internet Service Providers (ISPs). The product comprises of light weight

software called the "probe", the Server, the client and the Reporting

Engine. The probe, which can be distributed across different networks,

collects data and sends it to the server. The Server, stores it in the

database which in turn will be picked up by the JSP pages for display. The

Reporting Engine periodically creates reports and uploads it to the Server

which can be viewed through the client.
