Abstract
The present disclosure provides for controlling the collection, manipulation and storage of network performance data and network even data of a network with service assurance capabilities. Upon the receipt of an activation signal, a signal is transmitted to initiate the retrieving of network performance data and network event data generated from at least one network monitor. Such network monitor is adapted for monitoring a network system and the relocating of the data into a common directory. A signal is then transmitted to initiate the manipulation of the data and the loading of the manipulated data into a database.
Claims18
A method for controlling a collection, manipulation and storage of network performance data and network event data of a network with service assurance capabilities, comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving an activation signal;
- (b) transmitting a first signal to initiate retrieval of network performance data and network event data, wherein the network performance and network event data are generated from a network-monitor that monitors a network system and then relocates the data into a common directory;
- (c) transmitting a second signal to initiate manipulation of the data and loading of the manipulated data into a database;
- (d) transmitting a third signal to initiate a clean archive program for deleting files from an archive directory;
- (e) transmitting a fourth signal to initiate a table extract program for extracting data from tables stored in the database;
- (f) transmitting a fifth signal to initiate a trigger reporting program for generating reports;
- (g) transmitting a sixth signal to initiate a purge record program for deleting records from the database;
- and
- (h) transmitting a seventh signal to initiate a database backup program for backing up data stored on the database.
A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium for controlling a collection, manipulation and storage of network performance data and network event data of a network with service assurance capabilities, comprising:
- (a) a code segment for receiving an activation signal;
- (b) a code segment for transmitting a first signal to initiate retrieval of network performance data and network event data, wherein the network performance and network event data are generated from a network-monitor that monitors network system and then relocates the data into a common directory;
- (c) a code segment for transmitting a second signal to initiate manipulation of the data and loading of the manipulated data into a database;
- (d) a code segment for transmitting a third signal to initiate a clean archive program for deleting files from an archive directory;
- (e) a code segment for transmitting a fourth signal to initiate a table extract program for extracting data from tables stored in the database;
- (f) a code segment for transmitting a fifth signal to initiate a trigger reporting program for generating reports;
- (g) a code segment for transmitting a sixth signal to initiate a purge record program for deleting records from the database;
- and
- (h) a code segment for transmitting a seventh signal to initiate a database backup program for backing up data stored on the database.
A system for controlling a collection, manipulation and storage of network performance data and network event data of a network with service assurance capabilities, comprising:
- (a) logic for receiving an activation signal;
- (b) logic for transmitting a first signal to initiate retrieval of network performance data and network event data, wherein the network performance and network event data are generated from a network-monitor that monitors a network system and then relocates the data into a common directory;
- (c) logic for transmitting a second signal to initiate manipulation of the data and loading of the manipulated data into a database;
- (d) logic for transmitting a third signal to initiate a clean archive program for deleting files from an archive directory;
- (e) logic for transmitting a fourth signal to initiate a table extract program for extracting data from tables stored in the database;
- (f) logic for transmitting a fifth signal to initiate a trigger reporting program for generating reports;
- (g) logic for transmitting a sixth signal to initiate a purge record program for deleting records from the database;
- and
- (h) logic for transmitting a seventh signal to initiate a database backup program for backing up data stored on the database.
