Abstract
Certain example embodiments relate to a monitoring system for monitoring the operation of distributed computing components. The monitoring system includes a registry for storing descriptions of the computing components and at least one associated service-level agreement (SLA) specifying at least one performance requirement; a compiler for generating at least one first and second continuous query based on the information stored in the registry; and a complex event processing (CEP) engine for executing the at least one first continuous query on input events indicating actions performed by the computing components and corresponding performance information, and for producing at least one output event indicating a violation of at least one SLA. The CEP engine also executes the at least one second continuous query on input events indicating a violation of at least one SLA, and produces at least one output event indicating a relationship between at least two SLA violations.
