Managed Objects gives RIA developers access to business service information

September 9, 2008 —  Business service management company Managed Objects has created an API that provides rich Internet application developers with business service information.

Web 2.0 Connect, released yesterday, is a platform-independent API that gives access to Managed Objects’ data model and analytics, company executives said. Managed Objects integrates with products and platforms from multiple vendors, including BMC and Hewlett-Packard, and builds business service management views into them. Abbas Haider Ali, Managed Objects’ vice president of product strategy, said the company’s internal framework translates performance data into an object-oriented service model.

“If you want to build an application that has information about a server’s performance history—when the server was commissioned, how many tickets have been opened on it, what’s its performance summary over the last three months—you can query that information using this API,” Haider Ali said. “At the same time, you can push information into it. It’s a full bi-directional API.”

Web 2.0 Connect can work with any programming language that can communicate over HTTP and that can process JSON and XML streams. The product is based on the Representational State Transfer architecture, which is used for building Web services. It can also use protocols like Action Media Format, the Google Web Toolkit RPC (remote procedure call) and SOAP, which can then be mixed and matched by the developer, Managed Objects said.
