Abstract:
A method to match an autonomic manager with a manageable resource may include using a management style profile to match the autonomic manager with the manageable resource. The method may also include validating that the autonomic manager can manage the manageable resource using a defined management style of the autonomic manager.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products for improving network operations by dynamically undeploying services (such as web services or other network-accessible services) in a computing network. A process is defined whereby conditions such as usage metrics for incoming client requests (or other network conditions such as load balancing considerations) are monitored, and used to trigger dynamic undeployment of web services from locations in the network. The undeployment may apply to distributed locations of a service, and may also apply to an origin server from which the service was originally deployed. Service requests are dynamically routed to the destination where the service resides, in a manner which is transparent to the client.

Abstract:
A composite manager may include a set of managers virtualized as a single entity. The composite manager may also include at least one of a module to provide a single manager interface for the set of managers to manage at least one entity, and a module to provide a single manageability interface for the set of managers relative to any managing entity of the composite manager.

Abstract:
Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for managing a smart card product by providing a plurality of generic definitions, at least a portion of which have a predefined relationship to others of the generic definitions, so as to provide a hierarchy of generic definitions. Generic definitions are selected from the plurality of generic definitions and associated with an instance of a card product definition so as to define characteristics of the smart card product associated with the instance of the card product definition. The selected generic definitions are populated with data associated with the smart card product so as to provide a hierarchy of instances of the generic definitions which define the characteristics of the smart card product. The smart card product is managed utilizing the hierarchy of instances of the generic definitions so as to provide the smart card product having the defined characteristics. Systems for managing smart card products utilizing instances of definitions from the hierarchy of definitions are also provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products for improving network operations by dynamically redeploying services (such as web services or other network-accessible services) in a computing network. A programmatic replication or redeployment process is defined, whereby system upgrades may be implemented by redeploying services dynamically, without human intervention, enabling the complexity of upgrading previously-deployed software to be reduced significantly.
