AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In present application integration (AI) systems, there can be several single points of failure.
If that single server crashes, the entire AI application can become irreparably damaged and must be rebooted via a server reboot.
This facility is a single point of failure as well as a performance bottleneck.

Embodiment Construction

[0016] A system and method in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention overcomes deficiencies in prior art systems by changing the way in which events are routed throughout an AI system. In present messaging systems, an event router, which can be tightly coupled to an SAP™ system or database, can receive an event out of the SAP™ system or database and send that event into an integration server. The integration server propagates the event out to anybody who is interested in the event, such as anyone having registered a listener for events of that type. Events can also be propagated to subscribers of an event topic to which that event belongs. Event forwarding is one mechanism for propagating these messages. In present systems, events are forwarded by an event router to a physical queue, from which interested users or clients can retrieve the events. This physical queue is a single point of failure.

Abstract

High availability event forwarding can be obtained utilizing distributed queues in a server cluster. Each server can receive an event from a data system, such as a database or SAP™ system. Event queues exist on servers in the cluster can store an event until, for example, the event is delivered to a user or retrieved for processing. An event processor examines the load of each event queue and selects the event queue with the lightest load. The event processor generates an alias for the selected queue, such that a user, integration system, or client application does not need to know the identity of the physical queue storing the event, but only needs to refer to the ‘distributed queue’ or alias. After a physical queue is selected and an alias assigned, the event is forwarded to the selected queue.
