Rules are used to determine whether events captured from a monitor source are monitor events. An enterprise monitor metamodel linking monitor artifacts and elements of a component business model is used to annotate monitor events with data from the component business model of the enterprise. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for monitoring an enterprise, comprising: mapping at least one message from a monitor source to at least one element of a component business model; and presenting monitoring information from said mapping to a user of the enterprise. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) A method as in claim 1, said mapping further comprising: listening to a message from a monitor source; capturing an event from said message; using an event rule to determine if said event is a monitor event; and if said event is a monitor event, annotating said monitor event with component business model data. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) A method as in claim 1, said presenting further comprising displaying the monitoring information on a component business map of the enterprise. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) A method as in claim 1, said presenting further comprising generating a report of the monitoring information, the report being sorted by elements of a component business model. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) A method as in claim 2, said annotating being based on an enterprise monitor metamodel connecting said message from a monitor source to one or more elements of a component business model. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) A method as in claim 5, wherein said metamodel includes a monitor artifact element, said monitor artifact element being further comprised of a status level element, a monitor data element, and a monitor correlator element. ### Claim 7 (depends on 2) A method as in claim 2, wherein said mapping is provided by a middleware service. ### Claim 8 A system for monitoring an enterprise, comprising: means for mapping at least one message from a monitor source to at least one element of a component business model; and means for presenting monitoring information from said mapping to a user of the enterprise. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) A system as in claim 8, said mapping means further comprising: means for listening to a message from a monitor source; means for capturing an event from said message; means for using an event rule to determine if said event is a monitor event; and means for annotating a monitor event with component business model data. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) A system as in claim 8, said presenting means further comprising means for displaying the monitoring information on a component business map of the enterprise. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) A system as in claim 8, said presenting means further comprising means for generating a report of the monitoring information, the report being sorted by elements of a component business model. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) A system as in claim 9, said annotating means being based on an enterprise monitor metamodel connecting said message from a monitor source to one or more elements of a component business model. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) A system as in claim 12, wherein said metamodel includes a monitor artifact element, said monitor artifact element being further comprised of a status level element, a monitor data element, and a monitor correlator element. ### Claim 14 (depends on 9) A system as in claim 9, wherein said mapping means is implemented by a middleware service. ### Claim 15 Implementing a service for monitoring an enterprise, comprising the method of: mapping at least one message from a monitor source to at least one element of a component business model; and presenting monitoring information from said mapping to a user of the enterprise. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) A method for implementing a monitoring service as in claim 15, said mapping further comprising: listening to a message from a monitor source; capturing an event from said message; using an event rule to determine if said event is a monitor event; and if said event is a monitor event, annotating said monitor event with component business model data. ### Claim 17 (depends on 15) A method for implementing a monitoring service as in claim 15, said presenting further comprising displaying the monitoring information on a component business map of the enterprise. ### Claim 18 (depends on 15) A method for implementing a monitoring service as in claim 15, said presenting further comprising generating a report of the monitoring information, the report being sorted by elements of a component business model. ### Claim 19 (depends on 16) A method for implementing a monitoring service as in claim 16, said annotating being based on an enterprise monitor metamodel connecting said message from a monitor source to one or more elements of a component business model. ### Claim 20 A computer implemented system for monitoring an enterprise, comprising: first computer code for mapping at least one message from a monitor source to at least one element of a component business model; and second computer code for presenting monitoring information from said mapping to a user of the enterprise. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) A computer implemented system as in claim 20, said first computer code for mapping further comprising: third computer code for listening to a message from a monitor source; fourth computer code for capturing an event from said message; fifth computer code for using an event rule to determine if said event is a monitor event; and sixth computer code for annotating a monitor event with component business model data.
