Abstract:
In general, techniques for integration of diverse software applications in i) a co-location facility, ii) communication interconnection network facility, or iii) both, are described. For example, a transformation engine for datacenter colocation and network interconnection products may assist in a dynamic i) transformation of commands and ii) data structure translation as well as data structure transformation between a source application (SA) and a target application (TA) via two or more translation assist templates.
Abstract:
Integration of diverse software applications in i) a co-location facility, ii) communication interconnection network facility or ii) both. A transformation engine for datacenter colocation and network interconnection products may assist in a dynamic i) transformation of commands and ii) data structure translation as well as data structure transformation between a source application (SA) and a target application (TA) via two or more translation assist templates. The translation assist templates correlate to various combinations of the SAs, TAs, and the colocation or the network interconnection products. The network transformation engine may generate a new translation assist template when information regarding a new or updated application or product is loaded into a database. The new translation assist template may then be sent to a cache used by middleware to assist in the dynamic translation and transformation of the commands and the data structures to dynamically map out how a grammar and structure of the SA correlates to the TA.
