Ø Application – A collection of platforms, servers and services organized to
fulfill a single business purpose. Applications typically have many servers and
services, and can also run on more then one platform. A typical J2EE
application modeled in HQ can contain Apache Virtual Hosts, Tomcat
Webapps, JBoss Connection pools, and Oracle Instances.
Ø Platform – A machine/operating system combination or any network or
storage device. Platforms are the lowest level of management, and include
components such as CPU's, Network Interfaces, and File Systems.
Ø Server – Any software that is installed on a platform under management.
Databases, middleware, virtualization, application and web servers are all
examples of servers. Servers run on platforms. Platforms host multiple
Servers. Examples of servers include any installations of JBoss, Tomcat, or
MySQL on a given platform.
Ø Service – A component of a server dedicated to a specific purpose. Typically
services are represented by the units of work of a given server. Different
types of servers each define a list of one or more types of services they
provide. Examples of services include Webapps deployed in Tomcat, or Virtual
Hosts configured in Apache. Services can also be attached directly to a
platform in the case of CPU, Network Interfaces and Filesystems.
Ø Resource Type – A categorical description of a type of resource that can be
managed. Upon installation, Hyperic HQ describes hundreds of resource types
which include specifications for Name, Version, Available Metrics, and
Available Control Actions. Resource types span Platforms, Servers, and
Services.
Ø Managed Resource – A specific instance of a resource type within the
managed environment.
