Mediation Framework

The mediation framework allows mediation solutions to be built from reusable mediation components, that can be customized and assembled using smart graphical tools.

Mediation Components

Mediation components contain the mediation processing logic. Mediation components operate on the usage data delivered by the devices - i.e. collection, parsing and filtering of data, aggregation correlation and merging of various data sources, and finally transformation to various formats required by business applications. The Scalagent framework already provides a set of basic mediation components to perform elementary functions. You can customize this basis and/or build your own components to provide appropriate mediation functions.

To facilitate the integration of a mediation solution with the enterprise information system, the framework provides a JDBC connector to store retrieved usage data in databases and a set of technical connectors compliant with EAI standards such as: JMST (Java Messaging Service), EJBT (RMI/IIOP), CORBA (IIOP). In addition, we can develop application connectors on demand.

Configuration Tools

The whole mediation logic is described by combining and assembling mediation components accurately depending on your mediation solution requirements. Thanks to ScalAgent assembling technology, any configuration can be easily defined without programming expertise.

The Mediation framework provides a comprehensive set of tools, using the ADL approach, to ease the design, definition and customization of your mediation solution. These tools are open in order to facilitate their integration with existing business specific GUIs. The tools currently available include:

  • Mediation Builder, a component description tool to specify the application architecture - i.e. mediation components and targeted legacy software components, as well as the composition and cooperation rules between components .
  • Mediation Designer, a component assembling tool to define and customize a particular instance of an application.
