The Channel Service provides a clear definition of offered active communication protocols

  • It offers two separated service types
    • Decentralized Agent: one is the management of the decentralized services offered for each platform system. It creates a stable facade for the customer.
    • Centralized Note: the other is the central component that defines and enforces the defined formats and their services
  • in general it provides a channel management (who is providing what in which format with which technology)
  • provides integration blueprints and basic functional test capabilities
  • provides specifications for format conversions
  • passes on the information to the monitoring facility as basis.

Platform Monitoring

Icon Monitor.png

To ensure a decent platform operation and steering a dedicated monitoring service is needed.

  • It ensures that offered channels are available and operating
  • reports the load on the channels
  • any misuse or attacks.
  • It regularly checks the availability of end-to-end communication chains
  • informs about service fall outs and recovery
  • it reports the usage of provides services

Platform Operation

Icon Operation.png

  • operation
  • routing
  • load balancing
  • fail over scenarios
  • service migration

Marketplace

Icon Marketplace.png

  • Business service catalog
  • App Shop
  • API Offerings

Hub Connection

Icon Hub.png

Hub services for interconnection with other ecosystems provide a bridge mechanism to

  • translate
  • transform
  • convert and
  • provide information

of the two connected ecosystem.

Such hubs include bridges to:

  • RNE for IM
  • GCU for WagonKeeper
  • VDV for "Small" national RUs
  • **tbd** for Authorities
  • **tbd** for IntermodalOperator
  • **tbd** for Shunter

Service Incubator

Icon Incubator.png

In the incubation environment new services are focus to

  • develop
  • shape
  • harden and
  • train

These future smart business services are prepared for the productive usage on the platform. For that purpose the incubator provides the necessary

  • sources
  • data streams and
  • loads

to emulate the productive environment.
