Overlord RTGov and Elasticsearch integration

A quick demo of RTGov and elasticsearch based on the order management and SLA quickstarts. The demo shows

  • Using Kibana to visually analyze the response time information from order management service and and internal components 
  • Identify a slow running component that may breach a SLA
  • Deploy a EPN to react on these SLA breaches and create situations
  • Query elasticsearch and drilling down into data that is of interest and building custom Kibana dashboards from the RTGov data

Overlord RTGov: 2.0.0.Final Released!

Along with the recent S-RAMP and DTGov releases, we have also released a new major version of RTGov.

This version includes the following main changes:

  • One of the most significant changes is the replacement of the Gadget Server UI, with its RTGov gadgets (response times, call trace, situations, service overview) with a new UI. Although the gadget server approach was useful for displaying individual widgets, it did not work well for navigating between related information. The new UI has been designed to enable the user to navigate around related information. It is only the first version of the new UI, so more features will be added - and any feedback on how it can be improved is always welcome.
  •  Integration with Elasticsearch and Kibana. The previous version of RTGov stored activity information in a relational database. RTGov 2 now supports storage of this information in Elasticsearch (a NoSQL database), along with UI integration with Kibana, to provide analytic capabilities over the stored information.
  • Fuse support. RTGov, along with the other Overlord projects, can now be used within Fuse.

For further information on the new features and bug fixes included in this release, please see the release note.

Overlord DTGov: 1.4.0.Final Released!

After reading about the S-RAMP release I'm betting you're not shocked to learn that we also released a new version of Design Time Governance!  These two projects continue to be linked pretty tightly, but Hint that might be changing in the future....

For now, we hope you enjoy the latest 1.x version of Design Time Governance.  For full details, you can view the Release Notes.  If that's tl;dr then here are the highlights:

  • Full support for custom Deployers (including in the UI) [DTGOV-205]
  • View both deployed workflow definitions and running instances in the Workflows UI [DTGOV-209]
  • Better (full) support for the RHQ deployer [DTGOV-197]
  • Much better installation experience on Fuse!  [DTGOV-144]
  • Tons of bug fixes (of course)...
