An autonomic computing approach to Enterprise Management

Autonomic computing is the practice to reduce complexity involved in integrated systems across an enterprise. It is the term associated with a system capable of operating and managing on its own. A business establishment is composed of a variety of legacy and contemporary systems. The operation and maintenance of such systems can be eased if we integrate them and develop a temperate system. An enterprise management infrastructure is a copybook example of a system where autonomic computing can prove vital. Such a system will have the capability to take action and provide relevant information to people in various roles in an office. It will employ the business rules stored in it and the business intelligence capabilities of the subsystems involved. An autonomic enterprise management system will thus carry out management of various functions related to the enterprise and its employee. The information was presented using the rich client interfaces as and when necessary. The paper suggests a model for enterprise management which has been implemented using the autonomic computing principle.
